Towards CO2 neutral urban development

Introduction

The largest port in Europe with its industrial and logistics complex is probably one of the last places you would expect to find an ambitious environmental climate programme. Yet it is here in Rotterdam – a cityregion housing one and a half million residents – that two years ago the Rotterdam Climate Initiative came into existence. The Rotterdam Climate Initiative, part of the Clinton Climate Initiative, is an ambitious climate programme in which the City of Rotterdam, The Port of Rotterdam NV, DCMR Environmental services Rijnmond and Deltalinqs work together to achieve significant reductions in CO2 emissions and to prepare the city for climate change.

By 2025 Rotterdam aims to have booked a 50% reduction in CO2 emissions (climate mitigation) in the Rotterdam region-compared to the levels in 1990 for both the city and the port. At the same time the region must be able to adapt and cope with the consequences of climate change such as a rise in sea level (climate adaptation).

Transformations of the city and port together with new developments should significantly contribute to achieving these targets over the coming years. This must go hand in hand with the creation of new economic opportunities. Climate issues become an opportunity for the city. The ultimate aim is to create a city that is not only climate resistant and CO2 neutral, but also prosperous and attractive.

The climate programme is not autonomous. It must become an integral part of the day-to-day policies and practices. The programme is not only aimed at a few prominent green buildings, but especially targets existing neighbourhoods, districts and cities. A crucial aspect is the change in scale from the level of individual buildings to cluster level, district level and even to the level of the entire city and region.

Within this framework the Rotterdam Climate Initiative has commissioned two studies concerning CO2 reduction at district level.

The study ‘CO2 intelligent urban development in the Maas and Rijn harbours’ explores ways in which the CO2 targets can be visualised, applied and achieved.

REAP (Rotterdam Energy Approach and Planning) goes one step further and incorporates CO2 and energy directly into the planning and development process. A general system has been developed which will lead to CO2 neutral city planning. This system can be applied in other regions and should enable neighbourhoods, districts and possibly even cities to become CO2 neutral.

REAP background Prospects for the future

Ten years ago few people thought that the climate was changing and even fewer realised that mankind was influencing the change. Since then opinions have altered and now the world is generally convinced of the seriousness of the situation: the climate is changing at an unprecedented rate, mankind is one of the major causes and fossil fuels are rapidly running out. Because of this, attention is concentrated on energy consumption and the consequences of this. However there are other forms of damage to both the environment and public health that must not be ignored.

It is possible to arm ourselves against, or if required to flee, the consequences of climate change. However the biggest social problem is not climate change but the depletion of our energy reserves; a social economic problem rather than a technical one. In September 2008 the so-called ‘peak oil’ was achieved, the point at which more oil is consumed than can be produced. From now on the situation can only get worse. This will have far reaching consequences for what can and cannot be achieved. We are so dependent on the easy supply of fossil energy that we have imperceptibly become addicted. Not only George Bush’s America, but even our own little lowland country.

Just before the start of the current world-wide economic crisis the price of oil reached a previously inconceivably high level (nearly 140 dollars a barrel) and at the time experts expected the price to double. That a price of more than 100 dollars a barrel has serious consequences could be seen in the reduction in sales of petrol guzzling SUVs in America. Energy affects everyone, but especially the poor and the people living the furthest away from amenities.

The current economic crisis will come to an end and the price of oil will once again rise to a realistic level. It would be wise to use our time now in develop a different energy system.

Energy

The energy crisis does not mean that we have to cut ourselves off from the outside world and only use energy that we can generate ourselves – even if that were possible – but it is wise to make better use of our own energy potential. The surface area of the Netherlands is sufficient to generate enough solar energy to supply the economy of the whole world. Technically it is possible to realise a completely sustainable energy system but for the time being costs are prohibitive. We require a smart way of dealing with what we have and intelligent methods of making use of our resources.

In built up areas it is important to target the following measures: 01 Applying renewable energy sources. Within the foreseeable future there will simply be no other sources.

02 Make use of the available energy potential. This is an interpretation of the first measure at local level: renewable energy could be imported but it is far better to make use of local opportunities.

03 Make better use of waste streams. All buildings and urban areas generate waste streams that could be harnessed but rarely are. Making use of these waste streams would reduce the primary demand and so aid the introduction of sustainable energy sources.

04 Intelligent and bioclimatic design of buildings. This refers to making intelligent use of local conditions – climate, land and environment – in the design of buildings and districts. Buildings and neighbourhoods are no longer seen as objects out of context.

05 Energy savings in existing buildings: this will continue to be necessary as in 2025 (the period by which Rotterdam must halve its CO2 emissions) 80 – 90% of the built-up region will be made up of the buildings that are here today and which are frequently far from energy efficient.

REAP Rotterdam Energy Approach and Planning – 12

A new approach The three step strategy

Since the end of the 1980’s sustainable approaches to urban areas have followed the three step strategy: 01 Reduce consumption 02 Use renewable energy 03 Supply the remaining demand cleanly and efficiently reduce the demand

generate sustainably

provide clean & efficiently

avoid energy demand by architectural measures

generate renewable energy on the building level

generate energy clean and efficiently with fossil resources on the building scale

building

This strategy towards energy use is known as the Trias Energetica. It forms the guideline for a logical, environmentally conscious approach but in the twenty reduce the demand utilise waste flows generate sustainably years that it has been in use it has not led to the required sustainability. In re-use generate avoid energy particular, the degree of penetration of renewable energy sources, step two, is waste flows renewable demand by minimal. Sustainable building in the Netherlands mainly concentrates on step 3, on the building energy architectural building scale on the building measures which in practice is often considered to be step 1. scale That so little use is made of sun, wind and other renewable energy sources has a lot to do with the step abruptly following a sub-optimal reduction in energy consumption and with the fact that an important intermediate step has not been explicitly mentioned. Time for reformulation.

New stepped strategy

The New Stepped Strategy adds an important intermediate step in between the reduce the demand generate sustainably provide clean & efficiently reduction in consumption and the development of sustainable sources, and incorporates a waste products inspired by thegenerate Cradle-toavoid energy strategy (partially generate energy demand by renewable clean and efficiently Cradle philosophy): architectural energy with fossil 01 Reduce consumption (using intelligent and bioclimate design) building measures on the building resources on the 02 Reuse waste energy streams level building scale 03 Use renewable energy sources and ensure that waste is reused as food 04 Supply the remaining demand cleanly and efficiently

01 reduce consumption – passive, smart and bioclimatic design

02 reuse waste energy streams – wast heat, waste water, waste material – in closed or connected cycles

03a renewable energy production for remaining demand 03b waste = food

REAP Rotterdam Energy Approach and Planning – 14

As can be seen, the New Stepped Strategy has a new second step that makes optimal use of waste streams – waste heat, waste water and waste material – not only for each individual building but also on a city wide scale. Waste streams from one chain may be used in a different chain. For example, waste water can be purified and the silt fermented to form bio-gas which can be reused in the energy chain.

The addition in step 3 (really 3b) concerns waste that can not be processed in our technical waste processing cycle and so must be returned to nature.

This can only be done if the waste is safe (non-toxic) and if it can form nutrients for micro-organisms.

Step 4 will continue to be necessary for the coming years, but eventually this will no longer be possible or desired. The development of new areas or the re-development of existing areas should already take this into account because the fourth step will remain a painful necessity in many other regions.

Old energy system versus sustainable energy system

If we consider the organisation of our energy system it is clear that a lot of primary energy (98% from fossil or nuclear sources) enters our society but at the same time a lot of heat is lost (in the air, water or ground) and nothing useful is done with many waste products.

A source such as natural gas is delivered to all public and private amenities.

Taking the quality of energy into account (exergy) this is a significant potential loss of energy. A gas flame of 1.200 – 1.500 ºC is much more appropriate for high-grade industrial processes (that actually require such high temperatures) than for heating a home to 20ºC. If homes are intelligently designed then a temperature of 25 to 40 degrees Celsius is more than sufficient for the heating; this temperature is released as waste heat by many kinds of processes (e.g. greenhouses or cooling systems in offices). Other amenities require higher temperatures, but these could be achieved using waste heat from other even higher-grade processes. A more sustainable system based on the usage of this waste heat (a so-called low-exergetic system) would require significantly less primary energy and this primary energy would only be used by the most high-grade functions. This is not an efficient system but it is very effective: we could become 6 times more sustainable (600% better), while we are currently plodding away at methods to achieve an improvement in efficiency of as little as 10%.

The REAP methodology Background

The foregoing played an important part in the study carried out into the development of a CO2 neutral Hart van Zuid, an area with three distinct neighbourhoods near the Ahoy, Rotterdam South. Although this study specifically relates to the Hart van Zuid, it forms a generic method which can be applied by Rotterdam to other districts. Gradually the various parties involved – dS+V, the public works department, TU Delft, DSA and JA – converted the New Stepped Strategy into a system which can be used to sustainably re-develop any district: the Rotterdam Energy Approach and Planning (REAP).

If the REAP method is correctly applied it will provide a sustainable energy neutral, even climate neutral, plan. The system will be explained step by step.

From building to neighbourhood

If the New Stepped Strategy is applied to an individual building it will undoubtedly generate a more sustainable building, but within the whole urban context this would be a waste – or a missed opportunity. No use is made of the direct surroundings.

The energy consumption per building can, and must, be reduced. After this it is useful to determine whether waste streams from the building can be usefully employed. This is already being done for example by recycling heat from ventilated air and waste shower water. However, it is much more difficult to purify waste water from each building to reclaim bio-gas. In short: after step 2 there is still a significant demand for energy that according to step 3 must be solved using renewable energy sources. As has already been mentioned, this is technically possible but requires huge investment.

A better idea is to consider a cluster of buildings and to determine whether energy can be exchanged, stored or cascaded (see schematic diagram). In other words, if at individual building level all the waste heat has been recycled, the remaining demand for heat or cooling can probably be solved by buildings with a different pattern of energy requirements, buildings with an excess of the required energy or which produce waste heat (or cold).

01 An example of exchange: due to internal heat production, modern offices start cooling as soon as outdoor temperatures exceed 12º C. At these temperatures homes still require to be heated. This provides opportunities for heat exchange during spring and autumn. Another example is the combination of supermarkets (always cooling) with homes (frequent heating).

02 An example of energy storage at cluster level: heat and cold are only available in excess when there is little demand for them. For an optimal energy balance energy should be stored during seasons when the exchange as mentioned in example 1 is not required.

03 An example of cascading: a greenhouse captures much passive solar energy which usually disappears as waste heat into the air. A heat exchanger could enable this waste stream (usually about 30º C) to be used to heat homes, provided these homes are well insulated and make use of a low temperature heating system.

If all waste streams at cluster level are being used optimally it then becomes possible to see if primary energy can be generated sustainably. Although solar panels and solar collectors or a heat pump with ground collectorsystems can be installed in each individual building, it is much more economical to set these up at cluster level.

From neighbourhood to district

If a project can be tackled at an even higher level, district level, potential discrepancies in the energy balance at neighbourhood level (for example excess demand for waste heat or cold) may be solved. At district level it is reasonable to assume that other functions are available with a totally different demand, and therefore supply pattern. And just as at cluster level, it is also possible to exchange, to store and to cascade energy (see schematic diagram). Certainly at the larger amenities such as shopping centres, swimming pools and concert halls the energy pattern is so specific that by combining a number of these different amenities it is likely that an energy balance can be achieved. Hart van Zuid provides good opportunities for this.

In addition to exchange, storage and cascading, another option is possible at neighbourhood level: energetic implants. This is an intriguing term for adding a function to complete missing links in the energy supply chain. Once the existing amenities in the area have been optimally tuned to each other – here as an example we consider only the heat balance – there will be a residual demand for heat or cold (but not both). In this case it is only necessary to look for an amenity that requires extra heat on a yearly basis (for example a swimming pool) or that requires cold (for example an ice rink).

The provision of renewable energy can then be tackled at district level. As has already been said, some sustainable measures can be implemented at building or neigbourhood level, but other more capital intensive projects are more appropriate at district level. Examples of this are the bio-gas fermentation installations that recycle bio-gas from waste water and use power-heat coupling to generate heat and electricity. Geothermic energy is also only feasible on a grand-scale.

From district to entire city and beyond

The next step to a higher level would be the city or region, the scale in which our current amenities are generally centrally regulated. In the city of Rotterdam there is of course the city heating network (fed with waste heat from the electricity generators). City heating provides heat at temperatures between 70 and 90º C. This is perfect for old buildings which are poorly insulated and with central heating systems based on such temperatures. However, in new housing projects the buildings are much better insulated and they would be better served with a heating system based on lower temperatures, such as floor and wall heating using temperatures lower than 50º C. The most modern homes would even be fine with temperatures lower than 30º C. What a waste to use city heating for these buildings.

Once connection to the city heating is necessary or desired, the whole exercise of exchange, storage and cascading at neighbourhood and district level is no longer necessary (see schematic diagram). In that case the city heating takes care of the heating and potentially also the cooling (via absorption cooling).

The problem with this is that the local waste heat can no longer be usefully used and disappears into the environment – the urban surroundings. Given the expected climate change – in which cities will become both directly and indirectly warmer – this situation is not desirable. For this reason the REAP concept aims first at solving the problems of energy demand and supply on a small scale, after which ‘help’ can be called in from higher levels. In addition the city heating can fulfil a useful role as backup system, or as a loading and unloading system for too much or too little heat in a district or neighbourhood.

REAP can help make an existing neighbourhood sustainable, without requiring drastic urban planning measures. The following chapters will not only show that this can lead to CO2 neutral neighbourhoods but also how this can be done.

Generic Generic scenarios scenarios Duzan Doepel Design DSA, JA

REAP Rotterdam Energy Approach and Planning – 30

Generic scenarios The transition to CO2 neutrality is not as far off as one may think. The technology already exists for designing an energy neutral building or district.

It is even possible to design buildings that generate more energy than they consume. Achieving the most efficient energy system through application of REAP results in hybrid buildings and urban configurations that follow a spatial logic that differs to that of traditional urban planning. The strategic combination of programs that complement each other in terms of energy exchange and the ideal distance and density of the program in relation to factors such as mobility or energy storage, generate a new set of design principles for urban planners and architects. The spatial implications of applying this technology and the implications for buildings and cities are mind-boggling. Decentralisation and diversification of energy supply, where consumers become producers and city regions become autonomous is already technically feasible and a probability in the long term. The transition from fossil fuelled urbanism to renewable city planning will be incremental and can be aided by the application of tools such as REAP. Short-term implementation of this technology in an existing urban fabric however, is a complex matter. It is not merely a question of technology.

New economic and organisational structures are needed to facilitate this step.

For the purposes of this investigation, efficiency (CO2 reduction) and economy (payback-time for sustainable investments) form the most important factors that determine the choice for a hybrid energy solution and the optimal scale of the application. The new organisational structures and incentives that are necessary to achieve these goals are touched on in the final chapter of this publication.

In order to illustrate how this methodology works, a number of generic scenarios are developed. The parameters that confront designers in an existing urban fabric such as responding to existing buildings and available infrastructure, local climate and available (affordable) technology form the basis for these scenarios. Scenarios one, three and five illustrate differing existing building or building clusters that will be renovated or extended. Scenarios two, four and six deal with new buildings or clusters. The examples illustrate how REAP can be applied in different conditions and on different scales.

It is essential to map the energy demand before applying REAP. A CO2 map indicating the energy demand (for heating, cooling and electricity) gives insight into the (existing) consumption patterns of a building, cluster or neighbourhood.

Once this has been calculated the three steps in the REAP methodology can be applied: 01 Reduce consumption (using intelligent and bioclimatic design) 02 Reuse waste streams 03 Use renewable energy and ensure that waste is reused as food

SCENARIO 06 Energy exchange, new school, housing and sports complex Step 00

Map the energy demand > The ice rink has a constant cooling demand and generates waste heat. The swimming pool has a constant heating demand. The school and housing have a cooling demand in the summer and heating demand in the winter.

Step 01 Reduce consumption > Through intelligent design. Optimal orientation, good insulation by applying green roofs, facades and multi-layered glass. Energy efficient lighting and appliances. Natural cross ventilation for summer cooling.

Step 02 Reuse waste streams > Heat winning from waste water. Ground heat and cold storage. Optimal energy exchange between programs results in building volume. The number of apartments, m2 of swimming pool and ice rink are determined by the given program for the two schools.

Step 03 Renewable production > Electricity and heat from solar collectors.

Additional heat generation for ground collector in summer by atrium.

Cogeneration of heat and electricity using organic waste on cluster scale.

REAP Rotterdam Energy Approach and Planning – 50

CO2 map REAP provides a structure for CO2 intelligent development of a particular area.

If CO2 issues are to play a role in spatial design and development then sufficient knowledge of the various CO2 intelligent possibilities must be available. At each step it must be clear what is actually feasible. The CO2 map has been developed to provide such an insight. The CO2 map gives a picture of the current situation and provides a toolbox for CO2 intelligent developments for the area.

In reality the CO2 map is much more than just a map. It is an instrument providing information for each aspect of REAP in the form of maps and background information. Aspects related to energy saving and renewable energy production are in the form of a geographical map coupled to a GIS-system.

All aspects, in particular those related to energy exchange, are in the form of generic information concerning CO2 intelligent opportunities.

The maps related to energy saving and renewable energy production show the current potential at cluster level. There is an overview of which functions are present at each cluster. In addition, for each separate cluster the map shows how much energy could be saved and the amount of renewable energy that could be produced – heat and cold storage, urban wind, solar electricity and solar heat collection.

Whereas the maps visualise the CO2 intelligent potential for the current situation, the toolbox gives guidelines for demolition, new building or additions to the programme. Such new developments benefit from the generic information in the toolbox. It is even possible to modify the building program based on REAP and in particular on the information in the toolbox.

For the first step the toolbox indicates the potential minimum energy consumption per m2 – and thus the potential energy savings compared to the current situation – that is feasible for the different amenities. The generic information for the third step is an overview of the pre-conditions for the implementation of various forms of renewable energy production per building – heat and cold storage, urban wind, solar electricity and solar heat collection.

The generic information in the toolbox for the second step is an overview of the consumption of electricity, heat and cold per m2 for the different amenities.

This can be used to determine which functions can be combined energetically – demand and supply of heat and cold – for energy exchange within the program. It is also possible to determine whether it would be beneficial to incorporate an extra function in cases where the demand and supply do not match.

Hart van Zuid How can REAP be applied to an existing, complex urban area, in this case the Hart van Zuid? Which decisions within the methodology must be made if the desired reductions in CO2 emissions are to be achieved, decisions at economic, political, public, urban development and architectural level? And what are the consequences for the buildings in a city and the open spaces in between?

In addition the examples explicitly look for combinations of measures for CO2 reduction together with sustainable development by means of a combination of functions, social integration and integration of food production in the urban landscape (urban agriculture). CO2 reduction as spatial design.

Zuidplein cluster How can this cluster, with its mix of ‘60s urban development and ‘80s architecture, once again become attractive in and for the city? It is currently mainly a shopping centre, attracting people from the south of the city, with an unusual mix of infrastructure (the second busiest bus station in the Netherlands!) and a theatre but with no activities after opening times and with no links to the surrounding areas. At the same time, the building devours energy; heating in the winter and cooling in the summer. How can this urban development problem, coupled with Rotterdam’s CO2 targets, be transformed into a future oriented, attractive development?

Step 00 Make an inventory of the current energy consumption.

Step 01 Reduce consumption > New functions will be added: 20.000m2 shops, 6.000m2 supermarket. Theatre Zuidplein and the infrastructure intersection will be renewed. Better insulation of the existing shopping centre will in itself already significantly improve the situation.

Step 02

Reuse of waste streams > The addition of housing will create a better heat-cold balance. The use of the waste heat generated by the supermarket and the typical morning and evening energy consumption in homes means that the match is perfect: 1m2 supermarket can heat 7m2 of housing! If 665 apartments are added, the heat-cold ratio becomes 1:1,08 assuming that use is made of heat and cold storage.

Step 03

Renewable energy generation > The remaining demand for heat can be solved by the addition of greenhouses on the first floor, these could be public areas (or greenhouses for growing tomatoes) or by the addition of PVT-panels. PV panels could also be installed on the roof to supply electricity for the whole shopping centre. The remaining energy required could be sustainably generated at a higher scale level.

Ikazia cluster The hospital cluster is to be extended over the coming years, but how can the current high CO2 emissions be restricted? By definition a hospital consumes a lot of energy at a relatively constant level seven days a week. This reduces the possibilities for creating an improved heat-cold balance by the addition of other functions.

Step 00 Make an inventory of the current energy consumption.

Step 01

Reduce energy consumption > The hospital can be optimally insulated by adding a climate facade. A new entrance will provide an improved link to the public areas. ‘Pyjama gardens’ on the green roofs with orchards and vegetable gardens will form a healing environment which will contribute to the patients’ more rapid recovery. Fresh home-grown tomatoes!

Step 02

Reuse waste streams> Recycling heat from waste air and water can be applied using heat and cold storage.

Step 03

Renewable energy generation > The demand for heat can be sustainably satisfied using the climate facade and asphalt heat collectors at the new Zuidplein. Any remaining energy requirements will be satisfied by renewable energy generation at a higher scale level.

The addition of a new entrance and a new facade round the hospital enables the current enclosed area of the hospital to contribute to the public space in Hart van Zuid and at the same time to drastically reduce CO2 emissions.

Motorstraat cluster The aim is to build two new colleges on the re-developed Motor Street.

This provides an opportunity for developing a balanced, multi-functional cluster.

But which functions can be sustainably combined, taking energy, social and economic issues into account? A combination with housing improves social integration in the area by ensuring that the area is used throughout the day.

Adding offices strengthens this mix. To achieve an energy balance in this cluster the intended 50m Hart van Zuid swimming pool can be combined with a new ice rink. The waste heat from the ice rink in combination with the swimming pool’s permanent demand for heat provide an opportunity for using thermal storage to create energy balance. The remaining demand for heat can be satisfied using a combination of solar collectors and greenhouses.

Step 00

Make an inventory of the current energy consumption> This is to be a newly-built area so right from the start the perfect function mix can be set up. New functions are added to the cluster based around two new intermediate vocational colleges.

Step 01

Reduce energy consumption > The most up-to-date techniques in energy saving will be used.

Step 02 Reuse waste streams > Balancing the heat-cold relationship by the addition of functions: 50 m swimming pool (permanent need for heat), ice rink (permanent need for cooling) as well as homes and offices.

Step 03

Renewable energy generation > The resulting demand for heat can be completely satisfied by the addition of solar collectors on the roofs and the incorporation of a greenhouse in between the various functions. This greenhouse will also provide an additional (productive) space. Any remaining energy requirements will be sustainably generated at a higher scale level.

The cluster as a whole will become a highly efficient complex with a constant daily use and bustling with life both on week days and in the weekend. It will radiate a positive charisma affecting the whole neighbourhood.

Ahoy cluster How can this special complex, with its local and (inter)national allure, reduce CO2 emissions and contribute to an improvement of Hart van Zuid? The Ahoy hosts large scale, short-term events. This ‘leisure’ function would be strengthened by adding sustainable amenities such as a musicals theatre, a hotel, an events terrain or a children’s amusement park. A completely CO2 neutral recreation complex becomes reality.

Step 00

Make an inventory of the current energy consumption > A lot of energy is used, but mainly for short periods. For example warming before an event, cooling while the building is full of visitors.

Step 01

Reduce energy consumption > CO2 production can be reduced by installing green roofs and a climate greenhouse.

Step 02

Reuse waste streams > A theatre, hotel, amusement park, events terrain and car parks will be added. It is not possible to create a 1:1 heat-cold relationship so more energy must be sustainably generated.

Step 03

Renewable energy generation > The remaining demand for heat and electricity can be satisfied by renewable energy generation using a combination of measures: a Bio-combined heat and power generation running on waste water from the hotel, a greenhouse, asphalt thermal collector at the events terrain, PVT cells in the halls and wind turbines on the high hotel towers would together satisfy the heat and electricity requirements of the complex.

Zuidplein These clusters together form the basis for the sustainable, economic re-development of Hart van Zuid. But how can they jointly, in addition to a better climate, contribute to an improved social climate between the clusters?

An important measure is the digging out of the Strevelsweg to create a square or plaza; the actual ‘Zuid plain’. To start with this plain will already be greatly improved by simply giving priority to pedestrians and cyclists. Secondly, in order to become a proper plaza, clear facades are required; shops will be located on the shopping centre side with entrances at ground level. The entrance to the garage will be moved to the south side. A second lively shell will be built round the Ikazia hospital giving access to the plain. Thirdly continuation of the Zuiderpark right up to the plain will enhance its green feeling. Pavilions will be located on the plain to absorb exhaust fumes from the Strevels tunnel and to demonstrate a combination of sustainability, infrastructure and public open space. A sustainable and green Zuidplein adjacent to the Zuider Park: a new Hart van Zuid!

Conclusions and recommendations The general aim of this study is to discover whether CO2 neutrality can be achieved within an existing part of the city, working from the urban planning and spatial design processes. A manageable method is arrived at based on the guiding principle of reduction of both energy consumption and CO2 emissions.

Further, REAP is based on a realistic approach to economic, social, political and organisational structures. As usual a few comments need to be made.

Other architectonic styles The use of REAP has been worked out and depicted in areas and (existing, remodelled and new) buildings with a particular style. The REAP methodology is however architecturally independent and allows for different solutions – and the associated different architectural expressions.

Energy techniques An inventory of energy production on a city wide scale shows that some techniques are potentially much more profitable than others. This however does not mean that the less profitable techniques are not useful in the development of individual buildings. Although it would appear that wind induced energy in an urban area is of little significance, an effective combination of high rise building and wind turbines is still possible. This goes beyond the scope of this study.

Financial, economic and organisational aspects Designs for the 2020s are based on the current (affordable) technologies.

An in-depth study of financial-economic and organisational aspects goes beyond the scope of this report but a few recommendations can be made: • Develop a joint sustainability target for a particular area together with instruments such as a sustainability index.

• Stimulate the different parties with benefits such as tax rebates to guarantee that targets are met.

• Ensure that the factor time is taken into account. The best (financial) solution for a particular situation changes with time.

• Develop new structures so that parties can attune energy supply.

• Develop new instruments to guarantee the delivery of energy.

Ideal solutions versus time The search for the perfect solution at the right place depends on different guiding factors – money, technology, organisation, information – which all change with time. In the near future this can lead to a completely different solution to the one suggested in this study. Recently it has become increasingly clear that the choice of projects is mainly determined by economical considerations, together with the available energy techniques. Financially this depends on energy prices, availability of money and potential subsidies.

This serves to underline the fact that there are no ideal solutions, at most they are only temporary; the best combination of measures is continually changing.

Never the less it is essential to gather more information and gain an insight into the principles involved.

When solving issues of renewable energy production, and in particular up-scaling production, it is essential to relate to each individual situation and the above mentioned aspects such as time and money. For each step in the REAP methodology, it is useful to know which financial and organisational aspects are involved so that a well thought-out decision can be reached.

CO2 neutral urban development is possible!

After applying REAP to Hart van Zuid, calculations have shown that CO2 neutral urban development within the built up area of an existing city region is possible.

That is why we, the authors, would like to encourage the reader to always consider where possibilities for small-scale energy exchange lie so that a gigantic effect can be achieved on a much larger scale.
