Integrated Resource Management in Asian Cities: the urban Nexus • Time frame: 2013 - 2015 • Political Partner: UN ESCAP (Bangkok, Thailand) • Implementation Partner: International Council for Local Environmental

Initiatives (ICLEI SEA)

Approach: • Introduction of innovative engineering technologies in the area of waste water

and solid waste management, generation of energy, EE in/of buildings, link to urban agriculture (mainstreaming „decentralized infrastructure“)

• Holistic urban planning/breaking open of „silo“ thinking • Multi level approach (micro, meso, macro, supraregional) • Private sector, civil sector, state/communal • Grounding/concrete pilot projects/PFS/FS/scaling up

Nexus 2013 10/12/2013

Objective Capacities (institutional & personnel) for integrated resource management sustainably established in selected Asian cities.

• In the Partner cities Nexus task forces have been established and are working

• In the Partner cities Nexus projects are elaborated and ready for implementation (financing secured) or already in implementation

• Standard procedures to verify Nexus sensibility of investment projects are available

• Guidelines and strategy papers for Nexus elaborated and available (approved)

• Regional network/platform in use

• Kick-off Workshop 24.-26.06.2013 with more than 100 participants in Bangkok

• Nexus cities have provided baseline data

• Nexus cities have submitted first Nexus Project Proposals

• Cities have created Nexus Task Forces by Resolution/Executive Order of the Mayors (Santa Rosa, Naga City, Ulaanbaatar, Da Nang)

• MoU with cities signed (Yogyakarta, Naga City, Ulaanbaatar, Da Nang, Santa Rosa)

• Areas of Nexus cooperation identified through project proposals, one day workshops and expert visits (delays in contracting)

• Benchmarking system for cities to be developed (delay in contracting)

• Exchange of Notes implemented, grant agreements with UN ESCAP and ICLEI SEA signed, GIZ Offices in UN ESCAP, Implementation contract to be signed)

Where are we?

Nexus 2013 10/12/2013

• The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates that residential, commercial, and public buildings account for 30 to 40% of the world’s energy consumption.

• The sector’s contribution to current world CO2 emissions is estimated by various sources at 25 to 35%.

• For new buildings, the largest savings in energy use (75% or higher) occur through designing and operating buildings as complete system

• Over the whole building stock the largest portion of carbon savings is in retrofitting existing buildings

Efficiency House Plus with Electric Mobility

• Plus energy houses generate more energy than they need for operation • Innovative construction technologies enable the “Efficiency House Plus” to generate excess energy • The surplus energy can be used for mobility (e.g. an electric car) • Model project launched by the German Federal Ministry of Transport,

Construction and Urban Development in cooperation with Fraunhofer IBP (scientific research/testing/monitoring the plus energy building in real life situation) in Berlin

• In door temperature during the 4 coldest months of the year: 240C

• Heat energy consumption: 159 kWh/(m2 a)

• In door temperature during the 4 coldest months of the year: 160C

• Heat energy consumption: 350 kWh/(m2 a)

• 6 fold air exchange rate per hour

• Reducing energy consumption by more than half through thermo-technical retrofitting

DEUS 21 represents a new type of water infrastructure concept with the following features: • innovative and flexible infrastructure system with high resource efficiency

concerning energy, nutrients and water • Intelligent form of wastewater transport (vacuum sewer/canalisation) • Black water to energy, grey water for reuse, residues for agriculture • Recommendable for difficult terrain and high ground water level • Closed system, only one trench needed • high degree of user comfort, little repair and maintenance required Examples: Hamburg, The Palm/Jumeirah, Brunei, Malaysia, Maledives etc.(Bilfinger& Berger)

Summary: • Adjust tariffs (consumption oriented and cost covering), create incentive

mechanisms for energy and water efficiency • Reduce food losses; • Strengthen building codes, urban planning laws and energy saving

ordinances and respective compliance; • Encourage integrated design approaches and innovations; • Develop and use advanced technology to enable energy-saving, efficient &

waste water and waste management; • Create link to (urban) agriculture (fertilizer, soil), reduce mobility; • Develop workforce capacity (capacity building); • Mobilize energy-awareness culture

Summary:

• Exercise integrated urban planning

• Building permit (Nexus approach considered?)

• Energy efficient low cost housing schemes

• Resilient housing, on-job-training, SME promotion, employment generation

• Basic infrastructure provision (water, sewer, storm water drainage, energy, waste)/decentralized/modular system

• Change of paradigms (mind set), breaking up “silo” mentality

• Committed leadership, drivers of change (“champions”), windows of opportunity

• We want garden cities, not garbage cities!
