• Current and planned projects
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 • 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
Vision
Working in partnership to:
• Make Glasgow one of Europe’s most sustainable cities
• Improve lifestyles and opportunities for Glasgow’s people and • 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
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 2020– 42% reduction in carbon emissions by 2020
– 80% 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

The Role of Cities
• Cities are major concentrations of people and resourcesresources
– 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
Current total carbon emissionsCurrent total carbon emissions
Around 4 million tonnes per annum
Strategic approach
• City-wide approach
• Evidence based
• Technology neutral• 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
Related benefits
• Help achieve affordable warmth
• Help develop communities
• Support local jobs and services• 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
Project Governance
• Partnership approach
• Project Board – public sector organisations
• Steering Group – public and private• 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
The Partnership
Strategic planning
• Developing a master plan for the city
• Model to monitor and forecast progress• Model to monitor and forecast progress
• Identifying potential development projects
• Matching supply to demand
• Integrate with land use planning process

Integrated Low Carbon EnergySystems
Range of projects
Energy sources – wind, waste, solar
Networks – street lighting, district heating
Transport – cars, buses, freightTransport – cars, buses, freight
Buildings – homes, offices, public buildings,
sports centres, museums
Other – public policy, education and advice
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• 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
Wind power
Limited opportunity for wind turbines in turbines in city but this site on edge of city has planning permission for a 2MW turbine.
Energy from waste
All the city’s waste will be treated at one
location and will produce heat and electricity.

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

Potential Development Zones
Transport
Transport - 20% of city’s carbon emissions
• Private cars
– Over 50% of the transport carbon emissions– Over 50% of the transport carbon emissions
– Potential for electric cars – but market slow
• Commercial fleets } should be better opportunity as
• Lorries } movements are planned centrally
• Public transport
– Only 5% of transport emissions but still opportunities
Electric cars
Glasgow City Council has a fleet of 40 electric cars
Fastlink - Segregated bus route
Fastlink - Segregated bus route
Potential to use hybrid buses
Buildings
• Homes
– Energy efficiency, insulation, solar panels
– Working with social housing organisations– Working with social housing organisations
• Public buildings
– Council’s Carbon Management Plan
– Developing Energy Performance Contracts
• Commercial buildings
Glasgow House
Project to demonstrate energy efficient house
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
ELENA bid
