11 City in transition A city in transition from heavy industry, with growth in commercial and financial sectors Some of the most deprived areas in Scotland 30% of homes in fuel poverty (> 10% of household income spent on heating) Life expectancy much shorter in poor areas Significant public investment, particularly in social housing 2014 Commonwealth Games create an opportunity for investment and legacy

12 Vision Working in partnership to: Make Glasgow one of Europe s most sustainable cities Improve lifestyles and opportunities for Glasgow s people and businesses Make Glasgow a leader in sustainable urban living By delivering interventions that will be: Economically and socially beneficial Technically and financially deliverable within by 2020

13 The Policy Context Glasgow is a signatory to the Covenant of Mayors UK target to reduce carbon emissions by 80% by 2050 Scottish government 42% reduction in carbon emissions by % reduction in carbon emissions by 2050 eradicating fuel poverty by 2016 committed to 100% renewable electricity by 2020 developing a renewable heat strategy committed to economic growth

14 Sustainability must balance different policy objectives

15 The Role of Cities Cities are major concentrations of people and resources Currently over half of the world s population 75% of the world s energy 80% of world greenhouse gas emissions Cities are main drivers of economy

16 Current total carbon emissions Around 4 million tonnes per annum

17 Strategic approach City-wide approach Evidence based Technology neutral Long term strategic view Recognise need for supportive public policies Consider new business models for investment Partnership approach with key public and private organisations and academia

18 Related benefits Help achieve affordable warmth Help develop communities Support local jobs and services Create supply chain opportunities Attract new businesses and inward investment Make Glasgow a leader in sustainable urban living Help transform Glasgow s image on a world stage

19 Project Governance Partnership approach Project Board public sector organisations Steering Group public and private Project management team Projects at various stages of delivery some projects managed in-house some projects managed by partner organisations projects managed by other organisations

20 The Partnership

21 Strategic planning Developing a master plan for the city Model to monitor and forecast progress Identifying potential development projects Matching supply to demand Integrate with land use planning process

26 Combined Map of Opportunities

27 Range of themes Energy Networks Transport Buildings Soft issues Solar Wind Ground source Geothermal Waste Biomass Hydro Combined Heat & Power Utilities Smart grids Lighting - street - public buildings District heating Low carbon vehicles (private, freight, PT) Fuels Transport policy Parking policy Traffic managem t ITS Active travel Public Transport - ticketing - information Standards/spec - New build - Retrofit Heating Lighting Insulation Voltage optimis n Boiler optimis n Smart building management Grey water recycling EPC Awareness Education Behavioural change Demand reduction Energy efficiency Procurement Policy influence Development planning

28 Integrated Low Carbon Energy Systems

29 Range of projects Energy sources wind, waste, solar Networks street lighting, district heating Transport cars, buses, freight Buildings homes, offices, public buildings, sports centres, museums Other public policy, education and advice

30 Energy sources Energy from waste all the city s waste will be used to generate heat and electricity Potential to heat the equivalent of 100,000 households additional commercial site using waste from outside city Wind limited potential in city (exclusion zones, effect on radar, etc) Solar PV panels on homes and schools Combined heat and power Ground source heat Mapping areas of greatest potential across city

31 Wind power Limited opportunity for wind turbines in city but this site on edge of city has planning permission for a 2MW turbine.

32 Energy from waste All the city s waste will be treated at one location and will produce heat and electricity. Existing Proposed

33 Energy from waste Planning application for a commercial waste treatment facility that will produce energy. South Clyde Energy Centre.

34 Networks Street lighting Pilot study to convert all street lighting to LED District heating networks Athletes Village for 2014 Commonwealth Games Clyde Gateway a regeneration area City centre linking major institutions Pacific Quay development area

35 Athletes Village Energy centre Energy centre being constructed to serve sports arenas and Athletes Village.

36 Athletes Village District heating District heating pipes being laid to serve Athletes Village

37 Athletes Village View of Athletes Village construction site

38 Athletes Village

39 Clyde Gateway District Heating Opportunity to extend district heating network from Athletes Village through regeneration area to energy-fromwaste centre

40 Feasibility study: District heat network to serve dense cluster of buildings: council offices, two universities, a college, a hospital and social housing. City centre district heating

41 Potential Development Zones

42 Transport Transport - 20% of city s carbon emissions Private cars Over 50% of the transport carbon emissions Potential for electric cars but market slow Commercial fleets } should be better opportunity as Lorries Public transport } movements are planned centrally Only 5% of transport emissions but still opportunities

43 Electric cars Glasgow City Council has a fleet of 40 electric cars

44 Fastlink -Segregated bus route

45 Fastlink -Segregated bus route Potential to use hybrid buses

46 Buildings Homes Energy efficiency, insulation, solar panels Working with social housing organisations Public buildings Council s Carbon Management Plan Developing Energy Performance Contracts Commercial buildings

47 Glasgow House Project to demonstrate energy efficient house

48 Combined Heat and Power Combined Heat and Power being installed to serve high rise flats. This will: Save 7,000 tons of carbon Reduce fuel poverty for tenants Save energy by efficiently producing both heat and power Help make the flats sustainable

49 ELENA bid Technical Assistance to develop projects Financed by the European Investment Bank Portfolio of 9 Projects covering 3 areas: Portfolio of 9 Projects covering 3 areas: Energy Efficiency Energy Performance Contracting Framework Street lighting Energy Infrastructure District Heating Projects Smart Grid Project Transportation Fastlink (Phase 2)

50 FP7 Project -STEP-UP FP7 Energy 2012 Smart Cities and Communities Sharing knowledge about city energy planning: Glasgow, Riga, Gothenburg, Ghent Led by University of Strathclyde Delivering integrated sustainable energy plans and innovative low carbon projects Urban regeneration, economic growth, resilience of energy supplies and tackling fuel poverty A learning network of cities to replicate this approach including Nürnberg Other cities welcome to join

51 More than technology Changing Attitudes and Behaviours

52 More than technology Engage with people, communities and businesses Energy awareness and Energy efficiency advice Create a supportive public policy environment Building standards, developments, transport Integration of Sustainable Glasgow into City Plan Education and employment Integration into educational and training programmes Development of a green jobs strategy Create a vibrant, cultural and healthy city Facilitate healthy activity and cultural interaction

53 European Green Capital bid Glasgow is bidding to win the European Green Capital Winning this prestigious title would be a boost to the city s green credentials and would: raise Glasgow s profile on the European and international stage attract new visitors, events, conferences and other investment be a boost to our Sustainable Glasgow partnership programme which was formed to help Glasgow become one of the most sustainable cities in Europe. If we are successful we would be the first city in the UK to win this award.

54 Summary Reduce CO 2, create jobs, address fuel poverty Benefits of partnership approach, shared vision and strong political leadership Strategic, integrative approach to energy planning Seeking additional funding opportunities, including EU Develop an energy and carbon master plan Identify development opportunities Identify business models and attract investment Identify policy levers and communicate with stakeholders Social, economic and environmental benefits Help transform Glasgow s image on a world stage
