| A1P024: More comments: | The “Reininghausgründe” are a new quarter near the centre of the City of Graz. In the area of a former brewery, close to more, still working industries, a new town centre is being established. It will include living areas, workplaces, shops, schools and a park, so that the need for individual mobility is minimized. It is connected to the city centre by bike paths, busses and a tram. Car sharing is provided as well. Some key-energy aspects: • characteristic 1: For the heat supply in the innovative Reininghaus energy model, low-temperature waste heat from a nearby steel plant is harnessed through the use of heat pumps. • characteristic 2: The district heating system operates at low temperatures. • characteristic 3: Generated heat that is not used immediately is stored in the power tower and supplied on demand. Other important aspects of the project are the following: • characteristic 1: Most houses are low-energy houses, some of the certified with the “Klima Aktiv” label • characteristic 2: There are extremely few parking possibilities for residents and visitors; this will foster the use of public transport and bikes • characteristic 3: All the necessary infrastructure for the “daily need” can be reached within walking distance The area of the project is going to be very “green” when finished. Featuring a big district parc, lots of other green spaces are in planning. | The Cascais Smart Pole by NOVA SBE was implemented in a multifunctional area that integrates housing, commerce, facilities, and public spaces, acquiring a local identity through sociocultural interaction between residents, students, and visitors/tourists , also covering an area of 4.2ha of green spaces. Located in the Municipality of Cascais, a leading municipality in defining a Municipal Roadmap for Carbon Neutrality, the Cascais Smart Pole by NOVA SBE led the generation of change-makers, influencing people and all stakeholders on the path of innovation combined with carbon neutrality. The Cascais Smart Pole is a living lab pilot project that aims to create a carbon-neutral, sustainable urban environment by integrating innovative technological solutions and community engagement. The concept of the project is based on a physical space and a virtual space, providing testing ground for experimentation in domains of decarbonization, renewable energy, and climate resilience. Planned continuation of the project is establishing a Renewable Energy Community (REC) to promote local clean energy production and shared consumption. This initiative will support the Cascais 2030 Sustainable Energy Strategy and the Cascais 2050 Carbon Neutrality Roadmap, engaging residents and businesses in sustainable practices to drive collective impact. A Renewable Energy Community (CER) will be created from the Cascais Smart Pole, which will encourage residents, companies and NOVA SBE to jointly invest in the installation of photovoltaic panels, to share the consumption of the clean energy produced. The panels will be installed on the roof of NOVA SBE and surrounding residential buildings, and all interested parties will be able to participate in the CER by investing, purchasing energy or donating their roof or panels to the CER. The aim is for residents to not only save on their electricity bills, but also obtain social and financial returns and contribute to the decarbonization effort in that geographic area. Main objectives/activities and outcomes of the living lab include: 1. Roadmap for Carbon Neutrality: The project developed a comprehensive inventory of 2019 greenhouse gas emissions and modeled the path to carbon neutrality by 2050. Strategic options for decarbonization were outlined, with a focus on mobility and energy efficiency. The efforts resulted in a 65-ton CO₂ reduction during the project's duration. 2. Smart Pole Platform: A participatory digital platform was created, providing data on project activities and allowing public engagement through submissions of ideas. It also included tools like a carbon footprint calculator. The platform gained over 13,000 visits, fostering collaboration among stakeholders. 3. Smart Pole Community: Community-focused initiatives included renewable energy workshops and microgreen cultivation activities. Events engaged locals and students, with over 17 activities conducted, such as street fairs and environmental workshops. The Microgreen Community distributed kits to promote urban agriculture. 4. Urban Mobility: Sustainable transport behaviors were promoted via a mobile app (MobiCascais), tracking CO₂ emissions saved. Due to delays, some planned features were revised, but the app incorporated mobility KPIs and avoided emissions data. A campaign highlighted the importance of shared mobility. 5. Energy Efficiency: Smart energy management systems optimized HVAC and lighting, integrating occupancy data for predictive efficiency. Indoor air quality monitoring systems were deployed, and smart energy counters were installed in classrooms. The project saved energy while addressing privacy concerns. 6. Circular Economy in Waste: The initiative collected 19.4 tons of used cooking oil, surpassing the goal by 43%, producing biodiesel for municipal vehicles. A gamified "Pay-As-You-Throw" system incentivized recycling, reducing waste contamination rates. Smart bins monitored waste levels, improving collection efficiency. 7. Green Living: Urban green spaces were transformed with native plants and smart irrigation systems, reducing water consumption and enhancing biodiversity. Over 7,000 trees and shrubs were planted, and lawns were replaced with water-efficient meadows. Smart systems optimized water use and tracked conservation progress. 8. Smart Pole Market: Originally intended as a carbon credit marketplace, this activity shifted focus to creating a carbon footprint calculator for businesses. The tool provides actionable insights for companies to reduce their emissions. Workshops introduced the software to local entrepreneurs. 9. Smart Pole World: Communication efforts included public awareness campaigns, workshops, and art initiatives like "Sustent’Arte." Over 20 events engaged stakeholders, promoting the project's goals. The communication strategy emphasized local impact and scalability to inspire other municipalities.

Emission factors for various transport modes, including private cars, public transport, and active mobility, were calculated to quantify contributions to greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, the MobiCascais app tracked avoided CO₂ emissions from shifts to sustainable mobility options like shared bicycles and public transport. This data was integrated into the project’s digital platform, providing key metrics such as trips taken, kilometers traveled, and tons of CO₂ avoided, supporting the roadmap toward carbon neutrality. | |||

| A3P005: Sustainable behaviour | |||||||
| A3P005: Sustainable behaviour | Energy efficiency by renovation measures for buildings and measures for saving electricity; electrification by installation of heat pumps and photovoltaics and switching to electric cars, additional measures not directly related to PED like sustainable diet and sharing economy | - citizen participation and promotion of functioning neighbourhoods (e.g., through city district management) As of today, solutions for the energy transition in the residential sector have focused on the construction of energy-efficient buildings and on the energy-efficient refurbishment of existing buildings. Measures to influence user behaviour and to directly address residents and neighbourhoods as actors of the energy transition play a minor role and are also not formalized. At the same time, moving into a new apartment offers a ‘window of opportunity’ to establish new everyday practices and behaviour. In already inhabited housing developments, well-functioning neighbourhoods or existing, ‘sustainability pioneers’ are key to motivating people to adopt more resource-efficient lifestyles. In order to prepare such agents of change towards more climate protection and sustainability in the context of housing, Austria launched the BAREWO project. The aim is to develop a kit of formats, methods, and interventions for resource-efficient housing. This toolkit will be tested in six testbeds, among which quarter 12 (Q12) of Graz- Reininghaus, as soon as first residents move in (approx. 2024). Austrian TRANS-PED partner StadtLABOR, which is also a partner in the BAREWO project, will support Q12 in this process. In parallel, a monitoring system will be developed to make the (climate) effects of the kit measurable. In addition, a guideline for property managers will be developed, which will serve as an orientation for them on how their residents can be coached in matters of climate protection and sustainability in everyday (residential) life. From the very beginning, (communication) measures are implemented and relevant stakeholders are involved in the project (project advisory board) to ensure the multiplicability, financing and broad application of the toolkit. If successful, the toolkit could also be scaled up to other quarters in Reininghaus. | In Groningen we are working with different sustainable behaviours approaches and also developed the Unified Citizen Engagement Approach (UCEA). Currently, there are two different approaches in use in the municipality of Groningen: the District energy approach (Wijkgerichte aanpak, developed by the Municipality of Groningen) and the Cooperative approach (Coöperative Aanpak, developed by Grunneger Power). Based upon those approaches and knowledge that is gained through social research executed by TNO and HUAS the new Unified Citizen Engagement Approach (UCEA) has been developed. | Use of public transport, bicycles, and shared mobility options; using carbon footprint calculators to understand and reduce emissions; recycling and proper waste sorting, including biodiesel production from used cooking oil; adopting smart irrigation systems to conserve water in green spaces; engagement in community composting and home composting to reduce organic waste; preparedness for participation in Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) for shared renewable energy production; switching to energy-efficient technologies like LED lighting and A+ rated appliances; participation in events, workshops, and educational courses on sustainability and climate action. | |||

| A3P010: Legal / Regulatory aspects | Mobility contracts: A mobility contract is concluded between the City of Graz and the property developers in the course of development plans and serves to reduce the motor vehicle traffic to be expected as a result of the construction project. Push & pull measures are agreed: With a lower car parking space key, which is significantly lower than today's usual requirements, offers and information for easier use of public transport, walking and cycling, as well as car sharing and e-mobility are simultaneously created by the property developers, leading to a win-win-win situation for all parties involved. Basic principles - Possibility of combining effective "push & pull" measures => control option (e.g. reduction of car parking spaces, but optimisation of accessibility to public transport and walking and cycling networks, public transport tickets, mobility information, ... etc.) - Changing mobility behaviour in favour of sustainable forms of transport from the moment the flat is handed over ("upheaval" in personal mobility behaviour when changing the residential location) - Reduction in construction and maintenance costs (underground car parks, public road infrastructure) - Easier realisation of larger construction projects in the inner city area with lower generation of vehicle demand Städtebauliche Verträge in Graz / Urban development contracts in Graz Qualitative urban (neighbourhood) development with added value for all stakeholders: urban development contracts are modern instruments in the development of cities and neighbourhoods. As one of the pioneers in this field, the City of Graz also increasingly favours this form of quality assurance. Urban development contracts are a contractual form of regulation between the City of Graz and landowners, which enables flexible control of urban (sub)development in the interests of the common interests while at the same time relieving the public authorities. The contracts make property-related stipulations in accordance with urban planning requirements (e.g. urban development concept, development concept, framework plan, zoning plan) and the specialist planning requirements in particular infrastructure, development, design and mobility. This is intended to infrastructure, services of general interest, building land quality and settlement development required for the (parts of the) city. | At national/regional/local level a legislation on PEDs development is not yet available in the Netherlands. There will be a new Environmental Act and Heat Act in the nearby future. We are working on a paper about the current legal barriers, which are in short for Groningen: Lack of legal certainty and clarity with regard to the energy legislation. Lack of coherence between policy and legislation from different ministries. The planned revision of the Dutch Heat Law prevents Groningen from effectively realizing sustainable heat transition plans and goals. Lack of capacity on the distribution grid for electricity | compliance with Renewable Energy Communities (REC) regulations for energy sharing; •adherence to General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for data privacy in smart systems; •following EEA Grants public procurement rules for tendering and service hiring; •meeting urban mobility and transportation regulations for low-emission zones and EV infrastructure; •fulfilling waste management regulations for biodiesel production and organic waste processing | ||||

| B1P001: PED/PED relevant concept definition | Implementation of district level heating system to make heating energy positive and expanding local renewable electricity production. | Assessment methods for this ped (and for germany) is defined in this project at the moment and will be tested at that case study | Reininghaus addresses some relevant key aspects listed in the JPI UE PED Framework Definition such as: - high level of aspiration in terms of energy efficiency, energy flexibility and energy production; - integration of different systems and infrastructures; - inclusion of aspects not only related to energy sector, but also connected with social, economic and environmental sustainability. | The Cascais Smart Pole (CSP) is a relevant PED case study as it is a district-level project with high level of aspiration in terms of energy efficiency, energy flexibility and energy production. It employs core PED principles—energy production, efficiency, and sustainability—by integrating renewable energy, efficiency measures, community engagement, smart technologies, and scalable and replicable practices. Its outcomes align with the PED vision by fostering renewable energy, establishing Renewable Energy Communities, aiming for energy surplus, enhancing quality of life, and reducing environmental impacts. | |||
| B1P002: Motivation behind PED/PED relevant project development | |||||||
| B1P002: Motivation behind PED/PED relevant project development | City is interested in transforming the quarter, as many buildings are old, have private owner structures and have decentralised heating systems. As the city wants to become climate neutral by 2035 action is needed now. In the research project PED urban the idea is to focus on the future energy system of the quarter and use it as a case study to develop a common assessment method for PEDs in alignment with european efforts in that regard | The Reininghausgründe is a new quarter near the centre of the City of Graz. On the area of a former brewery, close to more, still working industries, a new town centre is being established. The quarter will include living areas, workplaces, shops, schools and a park, so that the need for individual mobility is minimized. It is connected to the historical city centre by bike paths, busses and a tram. Car sharing is provided as well. | CSP aims to serve as a living lab that demonstrates innovative solutions for achieving carbon neutrality and addressing climate change. Living Lab not only reduces carbon emissions but also creates a blueprint for replicable and scalable solutions, addressing the urgent need for climate action while improving quality of life, enabling energy efficiency, renewable energy production, energy sharing through REC (to be established), and aligning with global decarbonization goals. | ||||

| B2P001: PED Lab concept definition | |||||||
| B2P001: PED Lab concept definition | Groningen was selected as Lighthouse City for the MAKING-CITY project. MAKING-CITY is a 60-month Horizon 2020 project launched in December 2018. It aims to address and demonstrate the urban energy system transformation towards smart and low-carbon cities, based on the Positive Energy District (PED) concept. The PED operational models developed in MAKING-CITY will help European and other cities around the world to adopt a long-term City Vision 2050 for energy transition and sustainable urbanisation whilst turning citizens into actors of this transformation. Groningen works with two PED districts in two completely different neighbourhoods in terms of structure and buildings. This is why we see this as a lab: to see wat works and what doesn’t. In order to be able to implement this in the rest of the city. | ||||||
