1 Climate Protection in the City of Frankfurt Toyama City, 2016 Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 1

2 Low-carbon energy supply systems Using regional / local resources Peter Feldmann, Mayor of Frankfurt Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 2

3 Snapshot of Frankfurt am Main Frankfurt am Main Most international city in Germany Largest financial centre on the continent Biggest Internet Hub in Europe Historical city of coronations City of Goethe Situated in Rhein Main region Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 3

4 Climate Alliance / Passive house standard 54 percent of the world population lives in big cities They are responsible for 80 percent of the energy used Frankfurt was founding member of the Climate Alliance in 1990 The Climate Alliance has more than member municipalities throughout Europe Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 4

5 Frankfurt as a Masterplan city Leading and pioneering role in climate protection in Germany The biggest of 19 Masterplan communities in Germany Masterplan program is part of National Climate Protection Initiative Supported by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety. Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 5

6 Study of the Fraunhofer Institute Are the climate protection goals of Frankfurt realistic? Study of Fraunhofer as part of the Masterplan process Analysis of all sectors concerned Recognition of the potentials for energy savings Further potentials for renewables Result: What we plan is ambitious but in fact possible Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 6

7 Climate protection goals of Frankfurt Reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 95 percent in 2050 compared to 1990 Reduce the final energy consumption by 50 percent until 2050 Use 100 percent renewable energy local and regional by 2050 Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 7

8 Frankfurt approach The municipal energy agency informs, for example homeowners concerning an energyefficient refurbishment. The municipal energy agency advises, for example people with a low income or companies of any size how to save energy. The municipal energy agency supports, for example the development of an Internet-based simulation program for buildings or creative climate protection ideas of start-ups. Passive house standard in Frankfurt since 2007 Today passive houses in Frankfurt cover more than square meters Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 8

9 How can we receive our goals? First: reduce energy consumption by 50 percent. Here lies the biggest potential. Secondly: 50 percent of the remaining consumption will be covered by renewable energy provided from sources within Frankfurt. Last but not least: the other 50 percent of energy needed will be delivered by renewables from the surrounding Rhein Main region. Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 9

10 Arcadis Sustainability City Index Frankfurt tops the index 2015 Green City Frankfurt has a long track record of sustainability actions Since 1990 Frankfurt has decreased its CO2 emissions by 15 percent At the same time increasing its economic power 50 percent and office space by 80 percent European City of Trees 2014 Largest city forest with more than heactars and adjacent green belt Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 10

11 Change the way we use energy Transformation of energy supply und consumption needed This transformation is about more than reducing CO2 emissions Broad public acceptance needed Rethink the way we use energy and create a better awareness of energy consumption Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 11

12 Future topics to focus on Increase the share of solar thermal systems in the city. Development of zero emissions commercial parks. Pilot projects with big data centres and Internet hubs to use waste heat. Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 12

13 Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 13

14 Thank you for your attention. Max Mustermann, Institution, , Seite 14
