1 1st SEMS Summer School on Sustainable Energy Systems Session: Dipl. Geographer B.A.U.M. Consult GmbH

2 What I will talk about? Model approach for regions aiming at 100% renewable energy supply Background Learning from regional development Experience from projects with regions aiming at 100% renewable energy supply Approach in the district of Ebersberg Ideal structure for implementing the process in the long term Benefits for regions

3 Regional development Central characteristic Intensified cooperation and communication Strengthened regional networks Commitment of the citizenship Projects aiming at sustainable regional development often result in the use of regional resources within the region short ways of transport the use of renewable energy sources and saving energy

4 Renewable energies & saving energy in regions EU projects on 100% renewable energy regions: 100% RENET and PROMOTE 100 Promotion of the 100% aim within the regional management for the administrative district of Ebersberg Energy concepts for the administrative districts of Barnim und Uckermark Attendance of the forum on climate protection and energy in Bamberg

5 Model approach for 100% regions The way to become a 100% renewable energy region I. Renewable energies and regional development II. The process of building up a regional energy initiative III. Structures IV. Strategies V. Communication and public relations etc. VI. Instruments and measures Translation to English in process. To be odered under:

6 The model approach of a process Definition of a vision for a specific area and a specific period of time A strategy Analysis of the regional potentials, strengths and weaknesses focused on the production, distribution and use of energy as well as on rational use of energy / energy saving Definition of clear targets Definition of concrete activities and projects shining examples

10 The guidelines of the action programme Topic A: Active citizenship Topic B: Positioning of the district Ebersberg (Creation of an image, marketing of the business location) Topic C: Sustainable structure of the regional economy Topic D: Binding of the purchasing power Topic E: Tourism and local recreation Topic F: Traffic Topic G: Viable and sustainable agriculture Topic H: Forest and forestry Topic I: Sustainable structure of the settlements Topic J: Nature and landscape Topic K: Energy efficiency and renewable energies Topic L: Strengthening of the identification with the district Topic M: Living together / family friendly district Topic N: Culture Topic O: Education

11 Extract of the guidelines Topic K: Energy efficiency and Renewable Energies K1) We want the district of Ebersberg to become independent of fossil and other finite energy carriers by the year In order to reach this aim, we will implement measures for energy saving and use a broad range of renewable energy sources.... K2) We will support households, craftsmen, agriculture and forestry as well as medium-sized enterprises in developing and using innovative technologies. K3) We will create the needed organisational preconditions for professional information, consulting and coordination of the activities related to the energy turn-around in the district.

12 The model approach of a process Definition of a vision for a specific area and a specific period of time A strategy Analysis of the regional potentials, strengths and weaknesses focused on the production, distribution and use of energy as well as on rational use of energy / energy saving Definition of clear targets Definition of concrete activities and projects shining examples

13 The process in the district of Ebersberg Definition of a vision for a specific area and for a specific period of time The district of Ebersberg has the aim to be independent of fossil and other finite energy sources by the year In order to reach this aim, the district will implement measures for saving energy and for increasing the use of renewable energies

14 The model approach of a process Definition of a vision for a specific area and a specific period of time A strategy Analysis of the regional potentials, strengths and weaknesses focused on the production, distribution and use of energy as well as on rational use of energy / energy saving Definition of clear targets Definition of concrete activities and projects shining examples

15 The process in the district of Ebersberg A strategy Reduction of the use of energy due to increasing energy efficiency Extension of renewable energies Use of energy % per decade

16 The model approach of a process Definition of a vision for a specific area and a specific period of time A strategy Analysis of the regional potentials, strengths and weaknesses focused on the production, distribution and use of energy as well as on energy saving Definition of clear targets Definition of concrete activities and projects shining examples

17 The process in the district of Ebersberg Assessment of the current needs (electricity, heat) current production of energy from renewable energies the potentials for saving energy the potentials for increasing the use of heat and electricity from renewable energy sources the current supply structures the strenths, weaknesses focused on structures and measures (projects) in the district

18 The process in the district of Ebersberg SWOT-anylsis: central outcome The main challenges The lack of information among the population and enterprises The necessity to improve the possibilities for funding and for the mobilisation of capital Lack of cooperation with the implementation of projects between the district and the municipality level Central and superordinated strengths are The manifestation of the 100% 2030 objective on district level and similar objectives in some of the municipalities of the district Numerous activities in the field of renewable energies and rational use of energy on district and municipality level.

19 The process in the district of Ebersberg What has already been achieved: Energy production 13 solar plants in the hand of citizens Various other renewable energy plants, such as Bio-methane plant in Pliening Wood-chip plants / small local heat nets (e.g.: Markt Schwaben, Hohenlinden, Forstinning, Ebersberg) Wood-pellet and wood chip plants in the hand of private persons and municipalities (Bauhof Zorneding) Biogas plants (Angelbrechting, Pliening, Baiern...) Use of plant oil (a view converted trucks, tractors, oil-mill in Englmeng, CHPs in Baiern and at the Steinhöringer Werkstätten), Research and plan for using geothermal heat in Vaterstetten / Grasbrunn, plant in construction in Poing

20 The process in the district of Ebersberg What has already been achieved: Energy saving A programme for saving energy in schools The initiative Saving Energy and Refurbishment in the district of Ebersberg with the Ebersberg Refurbishment Directory

21 The process in the district of Ebersberg Initiative Saving Energy and Refurbishment in the district of Ebersberg District of Ebersberg

22 The process in the district of Ebersberg The aim of the initiative: Strengthening of the regional economy Preserving and creating of value adding and jobs Supporting sustainable development Contribution to climate protection

23 The process in the district of Ebersberg Stakeholders co-operating in the initiative: Solidarity community Ebersberger Land Consultants Planers Administration Coordinator: Financer Agenda 21 Working Group Others Craftsmen End-User Bund Naturschutz Nature Conservation NGO

28 The model approach of a process Definition of a vision for a specific area and a specific period of time A strategy Analysis of the regional potentials, strengths and weaknesses focused on the production, distribution and use of energy as well as on rational use of energy / energy saving Definition of clear targets Definition of concrete activities and projects

29 The process in the district of Ebersberg Energy conference with broad range of stakeholders Definition of clear targets Elaboration of a road-map including - A scenario for the future energy mix - Concrete, measurable and realistic objectives Definition of lighthouse projects The definition of lighthouse projects and further concrete measures will be part of the road-map

30 The process in the district of Ebersberg Implementation and long-term perspective for the energy turn-around Building of an operative energy citizenship for the long-termed implementation of projects and measures Implementation of lighthouse projects

31 Structure for implementing the process Relevant elements of the model structure Association or similar structures non-profit activities Support network profit-oriented activities Limited liabilty company person or small group Person who cares Coordination office

32 Structure for implementing the process The person who cares the tasks: Initiating of ideas for projects Encouraging other people to participate in the RE-initiative Connecting supporters of the RE-initiative

33 Structure for implementing the process The support network the energy citizenship Should be composed of different and relevant regional players who want to support the 100% aim... the tasks: Strategic discussions concerning the idea of 100% RE supply General public relations and awareness rising Achieving a broad alliance of supporters

34 Structure for implementing the process The profit-orientated network (e.g. a limited liabilty company) the tasks: Consulting and marketing Investments and financing Planning and operation of RE-plants

35 Structure for implementing the process The coordination office the tasks: day-to-day work of organisation, production of materials for communication, organising exhibitions, informative meetings etc.

36 Benefits of renewable energies and saving energy for regions The expansion of renewable energies generates investments and initiates added value in the region Renewable energies strengthen the region economy Renewable energies and measures for saving energy (refurbishment) create and secure work in the region Less capital does leave the region for importing energy
