BalticClimateWP 4 – Integrated Solutions and Capitalization of Climate ChangeKick-off meeting 31.3-3.4.2009 Riga, Latvia Dr. Hannu Koponen Regional Council of Central Finland (RCCF) Hannu.Koponen@keskisuomi.fi
THE AIMS OF WP 4 ARE(based on the application): • Alternative urban structure and climate change in regional planning • Implementation cases and development activities • 3. Capitalise Climate Change, C³ 24.9.2014
Alternative urban structure and climate change in regional planning • > to describe and design alternative models of urban and rural structure on how to adjust climate change • > to develop comprehensive approach which ”localises” the climate change information and integrates several aspects of climate change at the local level 24.9.2014
ACTIVITIES: - Partners visualize the land use in their area (e.g. location of jobs, residential areas, shopping centres, services and logistic centres) present situationobjectives and alternatives of land use - Greenhouse gas emissions and costs of different spatial options are evaluated. - Common criteria for sustainable development analysis are agreed on and partners evaluate commonly the sustainable development of spatial planning in the target areas. - Information and assessment of sustainability of the land use, residential areas, transport systems, energy economics (energy efficiency and sufficiency of buildings and housing) is compiled in the target areas. - “Top ten list”: The most important and effective actions in terms of influencing climate change in spatial planning, transport systems, energy economics is evaluated in the target areas.
2. Implementation cases and development activities • > to implement cross-sectoral cases in themes of • transport • housing • energy • agriculture • ACTIVITIES: • Presentation of the themes and case-studies, e.g.. • Housing and energy -study • Calculation of emissions caused by traffic and optimization-study of traffic systems • Housing preferences and sustainable residential areas, ”eco-efficiency” of housing • Regional public transport plan / smaller studies for the transport plan • Agriculture
The aims of the implemtation cases • A) To influence to adaptation to climate change by supporting the integration of urban structure and traffic planning • Implementing a transportation system plan or partial studies supporting them • Opportunities for implementing transportation methods supporting sustainable development • B) To develop transportation systems for industry and commerce • promoting the implementation of an environmentally-friendly transport and logistics systems for the needs of industry and commerce • Optimization studies, traffic emissions • C) Promote sustainable development in housing and energy solutions • Effects of climate change on housing • Promoting energy-efficient buildings, construction and community development • Surveying the most high-risk residential areas in terms of the impact of climate change, including adaptation to climate change • Alternative heating systems
Capitalize climate change C3 AIMS Evaluation of the changes in the operating environment and the effects of climate change on the target area industry and commerce The adaptation of business and economic life to climate change, benefits DETAILED AIMS The information is compared and reflected to most important branch of trade(s) in the region. New business opportunities are brainstormed and evaluated. SWOT analysis Localized socio-economic climate change information , later presented and discussed in regional level ACTIONS Jan-Jun/10: Local and regional climate change. SWOT-analysis for business MILESTONES
To-do-list • Alternative urban structure and climate change in regional planning • Criteria’s for sustainable planning ASAP • Inventory - using similar tools • Other activities in the target areas? • Implementation cases and development activities • Wish list, needs from each partner • Collected together (matrix) – preliminary selection prior the fixing the cases (Gävle Jun 09 • Common working plans, structure
