  1. Introduction of all Sub-themes

  2. ENERGY EFFICIENCY The first step– and the quickest and cheapest way to reduce energy-related CO2 - is to use less energy, by reducing and managing demand and improving the efficiency of energy use. De-carbonizing energy generation is the next step along the path to a low-carbon economy

  3. Typical Carbon Footprint & Components: South Hampshire, UK The Response so Far….

  4. POWER Theme 1: ENERGY EFFICIENCY • Exploring ways of reducing the overall energy • consumption of the partner regions through • policy • regulation • promotion • incentives • Two subthemes…….

  5. ENERGY EFFICIENCY Subtheme 1.1 Development and delivery of Public Sector Energy Efficiency Strategies and Action Plans to support low-carbon economies Sharing best practice which can be delivered across partner regions….. ENERGY EFFICIENCY Subtheme 1.2 Public Sector Strategies, Programmes and Initiatives to improve the energy efficiency and reduce the carbon footprint of existing buildings, particularly the public housing stock Key focus on the problem of existing buildings – which, in the UK, could represent 70% of the housing stock in 2050….

  6. Presentation of the Second Call of the POWER Interregional Programme “Driving Low Carbon Economies across Europe”15 & 16 October 2009 Seville, SpainMaría José Colinet, Director of Renewable Resources and Energy Infrastructure, Andalusian Energy Agency

  7. Theme 2: Renewable Energy: Exploring ways of increasing the share of energy generated by renewables, including solar thermal; solar photovoltaic energy; high temperature thermal systems; wind energy; hydro power; biomass production for electricity, heating and cooling; sustainable biofuels; district heating and Combined Heat and Power (CHP) schemes

  8. Sub-theme 2.1: Large-scale deployment of renewable energy schemes: identifying and developing transferable best practice in the public sector to promote successful delivery and to maximize benefit to the regional economy and environment and society Aims: To optimise public sector interventions to achieve the sustainable deployment of renewable energy schemes on a large scale.

  9. Sub-theme 2.2: Biomass Energy and Sustainable Resource Management: Identifying and sharing best practice Aims: To identify and promote an integrated and sustainable approach to energy from biomass, including energy crops, biomass heat, biofuels, energy from waste, electricity from biomass.

  10. THEME 3 : Eco-Innovation & Environmental Technologies

  11. 3.1. Living Environment Develop & deliver ‘place-based’ initiatives and programmes in the field of sustainable construction, including indoor climate and sustainable neighbourhoods.

  12. 3.1. Living Environment AIM Investigate innovative ways to reduce CO2 and improve the quality of life and health in the living environment, indoor and within the residential area.

  13. 3.1. Living Environment EXAMPLES • Sustainable new buildings • Use of innovative green materials/products • Design for lower energy consumption • Local decentralised supply of energy, • green neighbourhoods with fewer cars,

  14. 3.1. Living Environment Suggested delivery organisations & partners • Local & regional authorities, public bodies, • Universities, • Business support agencies, • Voluntary and not for profit organisations, • Environmental agencies, energy agencies, • Technology networks, enterprise clusters,

  15. 3.1. Living Environment Potential results to work towards: • Reduced levels of Carbon in construction • Significant number of existing buildings renovated • Significant improvement in energy and water-efficiency in buildings – from design stage to delivery • Large-scale expansion in use of renewable energy technologies • Increased use of recycled materials in construction.

  16. 3.2. Cleaner technology Development and implementation of a programme in the field of cleaner technologies to achieve the ‘double dividend’ – of a reduction of carbon emissions and creation of business opportunities.

  17. 3.2. Cleaner technology AIM Explore and develop innovative ways to create greater opportunities in cleaner technologies, with a special focus on start-ups and SMEs. Identify and promote replicable best practice.

  18. 3.2. Cleaner technology EXAMPLES • New business models for cleaner technologies • Identifying drivers and barriers for ‘green’ businesses • Promoting a common European standard (language) for green technologies.

  19. 3.2. Cleaner technology EXAMPLES • Promoting the implementation of new technological solutions & processes in Green Public Procurement (GPP) • Identification of the regional needs for new environmental solutions & analysis of possible technological solutions using methods such as eco-design, eco-efficiency, etc. • Methods of eco-technology assessment.

  20. 3.2. Cleaner technology Suggested delivery organisations & partners • Local & regional authorities, public bodies, • Universities, • Business support agencies, • Voluntary and not for profit organisations, • Environmental agencies, energy agencies, • Technology networks, enterprise clusters,

  21. 3.2. Cleaner technology Potential results to work towards: • Significant increase in the number of green start-up companies • Reduction greenhouse gases • Mainstreaming of Green Public Procurement • Increased use of sustainable clean technologies in the private sector

  28. POWER INTERREGIONAL PROGRAMME 2008 – 2013 Technical Specifications 5.1 Behaviour Change Second Partner Fair Seville, 15 October 2009 M.P. Dosi Emilia-Romagna Region

  29. Why to change our behaviour?The knowledge framework Local effects Local activities Citizen’s behaviour Economic Operator’s behaviour Global warming Citizen’s quality of life Economic Operator’s revenue

  30. How to change behaviour? /1The Policy targets (1) • Change the perception of the bad effects of climate change in every-day life and the consciousness that the local /individual effects come from the global effects which, in turn, are the total sum of local actions • Change the reaction of the society actors (business sector, households, public sector) with the role of producing and selling -supply side - and buying and consuming - demand side. The public sector, the institutions, can play an additional role of leading these change by means of regulations, incentives, disincentives: we need to enforce it, in order to move as quick as possible toward “a low carbon economy”

  31. How to change behaviour? /1The Policy targets (2) • Change the economic development model Need for a “life style” coherent with the changed international context as the financial crisis bring us to think more and more seriously about it

  32. How to change behaviour? /25 Themes for driving the Regional Economies toward a low carbon profile 1.1 1.2 2.1 2.2 Less Quantity “Best” Quality The newdevelopmentmodel 3.1 3.2 4.1 4.2 of Energy production/use 5.1 Behaviour change

  33. How to change behaviour? /3The “toolbox” (1) • Information and education programmes and actions forconsumers (including Public administrations trough e.g. Green Public Procurement) in order to committee a smart low-carbon productions (i.e agricultural products directly retailed by the farmers, Eco-labelled recycled products, energy saving house, alternative energies, etc,) and services (ì.e. eco-friendly transports, Energy services etc.) Success stories can generate durable network for exchanging experiences in different communities. Demand side approach

  34. How to change behaviour? /3The “toolbox” (2) • Training program and marketing campaign encouraging producers (incl. Public Administrations as service producers) of smart low-carbon productions (incl. energy saving buildings and alternative energies producers/sellers) and services (i.e. eco-friendly transports, energy services etc.) to offer them also by means of innovative Public & Private partnerships. Success stories can generate durable networks for exchanging experiences on productive sectors Supply-side approach

  35. How to change behaviour? /3The “toolbox” (3) • Financial instruments (i.e. taxes, incentives, awards, etc.) or other planning tools (e.g. location of industrial parks) by Regional Authorities Screening, comparison and effectiveness at macro-level. Economy-wide approach

  36. How to develop a POWER project on Behaviour Change as the main topic? /1Issues to be considered • The good practice/examplesto be shared (one or more actions as a local action plan) • The cost/effectiveness in applying these actions compared with “business as usual” (without the intervention) • The feasibility evaluationof the “good practice” application (mainly from the financial point of view, including the bureaucracy burden) • The promotion/diffusion of results in order to positively affect the other aspects of the economy and the society.
