Background, Dissemination, APEC LCMT Project

Basic Idea for Dissemination of LCT

Ø Show  Good  pracHce  of  LCT-­‐I  on  Volunteer  Towns/CiHes  p Seek  volunteer  towns    

•  self  diagnose  using  LCT-­‐I  •  IdenHfy    

p Conduct  study  of  the  volunteer  towns  p Share  good  pracHce  of  LCT-­‐T  among  APEC  region  

Ø Introduce  knowledge  of  LCMT  p Share  informaHon  on    

•  advanced  LCT  projects  in  the  world  •  the  previous  LCMT  case  towns  and  LCT-­‐I  volunteer  towns  

p Introduce  “Concept”  which  has  lots  of  knowledge

LCMT Symposium Ø Objectives

p Share information on advanced LCT projects in the world including the previous LCMT case towns in the APEC region

p Promote the use and recognition of the LCT-I System as a tool to disseminate the LCT in the APEC region

p Explore possibility of utilising the LCT-I System to develop bankable low-carbon development project in APEC developing economies

p Gather feedbacks from experts and delegates of LCT projects for the improvement of the LCT-I System

Ø Speakers p Developed APEC economy and a developed country outside the

APEC region p Financial institution (e.g. World Bank, ADB, etc.) p LCT-I Volunteer Towns p Review Team

10

When necessary budget is approved in Dissemination Phase 1 Ø Carry out in-depth Feasibility Study for the 3 LCT-I

volunteer towns in the specific areas identified as improvable.

Ø Holding a Symposium to share our knowledge among APEC region

LCMT Phase 6; Mandaue City in the Midst of Metro Cebu

u Metro Cebu is the second largest metropolitan area in the Philippines.

u Mandaue City has a population of 331,000 in 2010 which accounts for 13% of Metro Cebu.

u The city has a small territory of 3,064ha or 2.8% of Metro Cebu.

u The city functions as a connection point between Cebu and Mactan islands

Ø  The Concept of APEC Low-Carbon Town (LCT) and the LCT Indicator will be circulated for endorsement right after the EWG52.

Ø  Based on the experience so far, the LCMT Project will move to a dissemination stage.

Ø  We Seek volunteer towns to make a good practice of LCT, and we will hold a symposium to disseminate our knowledge to APEC region

Conclusion

15

LCMT project will move into dissemination stage!

Mandaue City: Phase6, finalize F/S Krasnoyarsk City for LCMT Phase7

Ø Phase 6: finalize F/S and Policy Review on Dec. 2016

Ø Main focus of the Phase 7: a low-carbon development plan in inland region with high demand for heating and cooling system
