To achieve the goal of establishing low-carbon homeland in the next decade in Taiwan, Environmental Protection Administration has launched the “Project of Developing the Low-Carbon Community (LCC)” for two years and continues to apply this in 2011.
The main objectives in the first-year project were: (1) apply for low-carbon community advocacy and promotion, and provide advisory services; (2) to assist local governments to set up “Low-Carbon Community Promoting Committee” and at least 26 communities should be completed; (3) to help the energy service companies (ESCOs) to participate in low-carbon model communities' construction, and extend themselves in the future.;(4) to make the demo manual of “Low-carbon communities of construction”;(5) to make fifty “Low-Carbon Community Label”;(6) to collect related information worldwide and implement counseling service and symposiums on the development of LCC including one international symposium.
In the project, establish a “Low-Carbon Community Evaluation Criteria System” was related with dynamic changes of oil, water, gas, electricity consumption and waste generation to analysis communities’ low-carbon state and condition.
To the selection of 52 low-carbon model communities, already completed the diagnosis and plan of the 24 communities carbon reduction measures based on the characteristics of the communities and carbon reduction conditions last year (2010). And this project will continue the other 28communities’ diagnosis and plan .All of the results will be available to communities to create a real low-carbon communities in the future reference.
In addition, in order to demonstrate how to achieve carbon reduction. This project was also replaced traditional lamps by energy saving lamps in communities. This project has completed a low-carbon community construction manual; provide a technical overview of the different carbon reduction measures. Meanwhile for low-carbon communities we had demonstrations and International seminars, etc., so that the community can learn from domestic and foreign successful experience of low-carbon community development and carbon reduction measures of practice. In order to create energy-saving development environment. This project also introduces energy service companies (ESCOs) to contact with the communities. Based on the plan to design LCC’s logo last year (2010), the project also completed the logo, Environmental Protection Administration can awards this LCC’s logo to the low-carbon-defined communities, not only in recognition of community energy saving carbon reduction results also can be the demonstrate of education and learn between communities.Information from successful low-carbon communities (LCC) or cities worldwide were gathered and investigated so as to conclude the valuable experiences in construction, strategies and policies for promoting low-carbon communities or cities. By comparing these experiences, current related policies in Taiwan with their feasibility were also analyzed. The results of the first-year project would be an important basis and reference for conducting the project of promoting low-carbon homeland in the future.
