WP4 - Strategic Urban Planning Climate change resilient city planning and climate-neutral infrastructure
Task 4.1- Kick-off meeting • Finished • June 2012 in Rotterdam • Several case study reports ready to go online
Task 4.2 - Urban planning and adaptation to flood risk • Flood risk model and adaptation measures • 2 papers published in Regional Environmental Change
Task 4.2 - Urban planning and adaptation to flood risk • Extending the model: ElcoKoks • Flood risk in harbour area • Indirect economic effects (in review with risk analysis) • Infrastructure
Task 4.2 - Urban planning and adaptation to flood risk • Regional waterways • Study finished • Incorporated in RAS
Task 4.2 - Urban planning and adaptation to flood risk • Change of staff in Ljubljana team • Ecosystem technologies • Retention, quality, biodiversity, education • Demonstration site Podutik • Editorial paper on website
Task 4.3 - Urban planning support through land use modelling Develop methods to quantify and map bundles of urban ecosystem services in order to assess the dynamics in supply and demand of ecosystem services and inform urban planning Local climate regulation DEMAND SUPPLY Recreation Urban heat island effect Water retention Moderation noise & air pollution
Task 4.3 - Urban planning support through land use modelling
Task 4.4 - Urban water management • Potential of green roofs in London • Plan to derive general rules from monitoring (WP2) • First: potential of green roofs based on building characteristics • Possible: explore social justice implications (topic also explored in Netherlands by Elco)
Task 4.5 - Improved climate-neutral infrastructure • Energy infrastructure (Aalborg) • Energy Vision Aalborg: independent of fossil fuel in 2050: how? • Strategic Municipal Energy Planning • Aims at broad holistic energy planning • Taking into account local conditions • Addressess all sub-systems
Task 4.5 - Improved climate-neutral infrastructure • Energy infrastructure (Aalborg) • Developing a heat atlas • A mapping of all heat demands on individual building level with information regarding heat consumption, efficiency measures, current and future heat supply • Scenarios for implementing heat • saving measures in buildings • Economic costs related to • implementing the heat savings
Task 4.5 - Improved climate-neutral infrastructure • Transport infrastructure (Ljubljana) • Initially looking at Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) • Already implemented, now focussing on micro-communication between stakeholders using interactive GIS • Beta version is online; also other topics to be included, like flooding: where information is now scattered
Task 4.5 - Improved climate-neutral infrastructure • Waste infrastructure (but where…?) • Integrated Sustainable Waste Management (ISWM) • Delayed • Seville is out • New possibilities: • Malaga (administrative issues) • Existing TURAS city?
Task 4.6 – Recomm. for climate change resilient city planning • Deliverable 4.5 in Month 36 • Started drafting framework at kick-off meeting, continued in Stuttgart and this morning • Several aspects to be covered by all partners (incl. data; governance/implementation)
DELIVERABLE 4.5 (M36) • Chapter per activity • Guided by specific questions related to: • Data (type, availability) • Tools • Future developments • Types of strategies • Governance and implementation • Multi-functionality, co-benefits and conflicts
DELIVERABLE 4.5 (M36) • Governance • Evaluate past activity by authority related to topic: • Initial constrains (why wasn’t it done before) • Actions taken to overcome initial constrains • Successes (what worked, and why did it work?) • Non-successes (what didn’t work, and what was main cause?)
