3 Townships and Urban Development Cities/Urban Areas Emit GHG Sources of Green House Gas Industrial Agriculture Forestation 19% 14% 17% Other Urban Development 50% Commercial & Residential 8% Transport 13% Waste 3% Electricity production CO2 is the most important anthropogenic of GHG and the main sources of atmospheric CO2 is from burning of fossil fuels 75% of increase in atmospheric CO2 since industrial times (Source: Cities and Climate Change Global Report on Human Settlements 2011, UN-Habitat). 3

4 Malaysia & Urbanisation - A Case for Change More People Living in Urban Areas/Cities Population Malaysia 18 million (1990) to 27.6 million (2010) - increase by 53% (Source: Census Dat a, 2010) Urbanization Rate 27% in 1960, 42% in 1990, 54% in 1994, 61.8% (2000) for Malaysia, 65.4% (2000) for West Malaysia Expected to grow to 75% by 2020 (Source: RFN 2001) Energy Energy Consumption 61,279 metric tons (2005) (40% transportation & 40% industrial) Energy Produced 99,917 metric tons (2005) 2006 CO2 emission 187 million tons 7.2 metric tons/person metric tons/world 4.4 metric tons/person 4

8 Low Carbon Cities Framework & Assessment System - Use of Document This document is to assist local authorities, township developers, designers and individuals in assessing whether developments carried out within the city contributes towards the reduction or decrease in GHG. Was Launched in Sept

9 Low Carbon Cities Framework & Assessment System - Purpose of the Guiding Document It is my dream that one day we can live in a clean, healthy and high quality environment, where cities, townships and communities are built on the fundamentals of Green Technology YAB Dato Sri Mohd NajibTun Razak To promote reduction of GHG in a township / cities towards supporting government effort to reduce CO2 intensity / GDP by year % 9

10 Sustainable Framework for Low Carbon Cities SUSTAINABLE TOWNSHIP SUSTAINABLE FRAMEWORK Community Well Being Equality & Diversity Services Governance Economy Transport & Mobility Natural & Built Environment MurniNet/ LIVABILITY INDEX LCCF CARBON ASSESSMENT MISSION (CO2 REDUCTION) GREEN NEIGHBOURHOOD GUIDELINES (GNG) Urban Transportation Urban Environment KEY ELEMENTS Urban Infrastructure Buildings PERFORMANCE BASED STANDARD

11 Low Carbon Cities Framework & Assessment System Key Features Four (4) Main Components in the framework of GHG analysis Identify Elements to Measure Understand which elements contribute most to the city s GHG emission Prioritize/choose which elements to measure (all?/specific elements?) Territory Boundaries or Area of Concern: Administrative boundaries of the city/any area of city. Single source solutions Current Status of GHG emission Baseline information on current GHG emission level. BAU Levels projected emission If non available of baseline data benchmarks against other baselines can be used as a guide. Source of generation Identify the key source of generation. Targets Set targets for reduction of GHG emission Targets should be achievable and measurable Gaps Identify the gaps between current emission status and targets. Identify measures Roadmaps Set a Roadmap 11
