transition Utrecht University participation water energy Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks By Alessandro Vasta Andreas Dietzel Cosmina Dinu Irene Litina Jason Young Nadine Boevé Paul Frederiks Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks
Study area Linnaeusparkweg region Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks
Background and problem description Our client: WaterNet Tasks: 1 2 Replace polder sewage system Enhance overall sustainability Obstacles Broader perspective Solution Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks
Background and problem description Main tasks for us... 1) identify and overcome obstacles in participation 2) assess the possibilities and incentives for reducing stress on the sewage system and identify benefits of decoupling polder sewage system 3) assess the possibilities for increasing energy efficiency and installing renewable energy sources Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks
Research question “To what extent can Waternet improve its engagement process with stakeholders as it seeks to better the current groundwater situation while at the same time, stimulate the transition towards a more sustainable state of the existing building blocks in the Linnaeusparkweg region of Watergraafsmeer?” Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks

Research question Research question Phase 1 Installing the participatory governance framework 1) Assessing the community profile to gain better understanding of participants 2) Evaluate the needed Governance model that should focus on; trust building, equal representation, inclusiveness and legitimacy 3) Build up a management and leadership formula to facilitate the process 4) Evaluate TM as a guiding framework for the transition of the blocks Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks Sustainability case study Watergraafsmeer
Research question Research question Phase 2 Investigate transition management and technological solutions 1) Monitor the renovation of the polder sewage system as a test case to assess its benefits 2) An in depth study of the specific area and housing characteristics so to realize the applicability of the technological solutions 3) Create a water balance model to asses the potential contribution of green roofs,rainwater harvesting and greywater recycling towards reducing pressure on the polder sewage system 4) A study into the possibilities for hybrid systems 5) An economic feasibility study of the technologies with a cost-benefit analysis that include existing incentives Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks Sustainability case study Watergraafsmeer
Research question Research question Phase 3 Investigate policy options and establish engagement plan for stimulating realization of choices 1) Assess legal constraints considering new regulations, implications of property rights, limits to introducing fees, etc. 2) Assess economic potential for additional policy incentives needed to bridge cost gap 3) Assess political feasibility of incentives 4) Develop communication and engagement strategy 5) Develop monitoring and reporting strategy Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks Towards enhanced participation and sustainable building blocks Sustainability case study Watergraafsmeer
