1 Transformation of a Small Livestock, Rural Community into a Green, Nearly Zero CO 2 Emissions Settlement DIMOUDI A. 1, STATHIS V., PALLAS CH. 2 1 DEMOCRITUS UNIVERSITY OF THRACE, DEP. OF ENVIRONMENTAL ENG., GREECE 2 SERRES MUNICIPALITY, SERRES, GREECE

2 Description of settlement: Ellaionas, Serres Small mountainous (elevation of 450 m) community of 375 inhabitants (2012) in North Greece 112 residential buildings, 4 public buildings Economic activities: mainly Livestock & Agricultural 3 small units in the secondary sector (olive mill, cheese producer from sheep and goat milk, poultry processing unit) Limited tourist activities (one day visitors) to the village s restaurants (4)

3 Description of settlement: Ellaionas, Serres 92 private cars, 31 vans, (2,784 km/year), effluent truck (1,872 Km/year) Annual consumption of water 50,000, Q max =8 m 3 /hr, Q min = 5 m 3 /hr, 1 water deposit with capacity of 60 8 m 3, Solid waste total 164 tn/year, 438 kg/habitant-year, Sewage waste 21,608 m 3 collected to open water basin on a local running water cavity

4 Targets of Intervention Improve energy efficiency in the community Reform the community to neutral community with regard CO 2 emissions Improve the management of solid waste and sewage waste Introduce new economic development opportunities to local farmers and breeders Improve the infrastructure of the existing livestock park to attract most of the breeders to this location and the surrounding area Improve the management of the animal manure issuing of green card to the breeders Improve the existing wastewater infrastructure Improve aesthetically the community to expand the local tourist sector
