19 Property market and the crisis The crisis has led to a new approach on property development in the Spoorzone and a new plan for the area development. Old approach: project developers search interested buyers for their plans New approach: interested buyers are contacted and plans are made according to their needs or wishes Project organisation is the link between buyers and developers possibilities for private building development or (small) collective development with aid from the project organisation New plan for the property development by Palmbout urban landscapes 19

22 Environmental goals The goals for Delft: investing in a green, attractive and sustainable living environment Delft as a green oasis between the cities Rotterdam and The Hague Covenant of Mayors 50% CO2 reduction in 2030 energy-neutral in 2050 focus on energy efficiency in existing housing stock Mecine presentations Delft, Energy-neutral in 2050, Roskilde June 2012 and Sustainable regeneration of urban areas, Delft November 2012) 22

23 Environmental goals The goals for Spoorzone: Spoorzone as an example for sustainable building in the Netherlands and abroad an area with room for water and green spaces maximum reduction of water use maximum use of renewable energy Breeam-NL score excellent for the development area 23

24 Horizon 2020 Possible proposal Spoorzone: new sanitation Closed circuits lead to a sustainable use of resources and energy. The development of new sanitation aims to reduce waste water, collect waste streams separately and purify waste water decentralized in the area. geothermal heat distribution An innovative system for collective use of thermal earth heat from the TU area. Low temperature heating systems with use of floor heating house of sustainable mobility Proposal in May

25 House of sustainable mobility Aims house of sustainable mobility: CO2 reduction attractive and sustainable living environment providing transportation for new residents of the Spoorzone providing transportation for commuters and tourists improving modality switch reduction of car ownership for the new residents of the Spoorzone reduction of parking space in the Spoorzone 25

26 House of sustainable mobility The office is a mediator in: availability accessibility alternative means of transport innovative transport technologies mobility management solutions (individual and collective) carpooling The office collaborates with: mobility institutes (i.e. TU Delft) city of Delft rental companies car sharing companies 26

27 House of sustainable mobility The office provides: bicycle rental (regular and electric bikes) transport bikes electric scooters segways e-cars (rental and car sharing) for every occasion a family car for the weekend or holidays a car to go to work a car for moving furniture a car for your marriage or other special occasion CO2-reduction: solar energy to charge less cars in the new neighborhood (ownership is less important) 27

28 House of sustainable mobility Easy access: app for reservations 24-7 valet services child car seats Smart city combinations: location near the rail & bus station (visibility and accessibility are essential for success) amid the new dwellings combine with other facilities such as crèches, coffee corners, parcel services, workspaces etc. 28

29 House of sustainable mobility Spoorzone Delft, the central hub for all modalities: rail station bus station trams centre for main cycling routes situated on the main roads around the city center with the parking garages taxi watertaxi yacht and charter ship harbor pedestrian routes to the city center bike and e-scooters rental e-car rental and sharing 29
