The Waste Strategy, developed and led by the Solid Waste Management Services Division, was approved by City Council in July 2016 and outlines the way waste will be managed in Toronto over the next 30-50 years. The Waste Strategy places a priority on diverting waste from landfill through the implementation of reduction, reuse, and waste diversion (i.e. recycling and composting) policies and programs. This long term goal of maximizing diversion from landfill is also a goal of TransformTO.Toronto is acting on Waste Strategy recommendations through the implementation of various new programs that support waste reduction, reuse and the transition towards a circular economy and zero waste future. One new program as outlined below focuses on textile collection and reuse.Textile Waste Diversion and Reduction Initiatives ReportThe City's Long Term Waste Management Strategy, adopted by City Council in July 2016, recommends the development and implementation of a Textile Collection and Reuse Strategy (Textile Strategy) to divert more textile material from landfill. The report in the link below provides an update on the City's current Textile Strategy including planning and implementation activities undertaken to date and maintenance and monitoring activities that will be used to measure outcomes of the implemented Textile Strategy. The report also includes an overview of the City's 2019 Clothing Drop Boxes bylaw review, including key bylaw amendments and implementation actions. Finally, the report summarizes next steps that Solid Waste Management Services and Municipal Licensing & Standards will work jointly on in order to further promote the reduction of textile waste both through the Textile Strategy and Clothing Drop Boxes bylaw.

| 605 | 2020 | 1499 | Ajuntament de Barcelona | Barcelona | Spain | Europe | public | EUR Euro | Buildings > Energy efficiency/ retrofit measures | Building retrofittings | Policy and regulation | Pre-implementation | 50000 | 0 | Per year | The domestic, commercial and service sectors account for nearly 60% of all energy consumed in the city, with a final energy consumption of around 10,000 GWh a year. In terms of greenhouse gases, that represents 40% of all emissions recorded in the city. And a large part of that consumption corresponds to the buildings where the activity is carried out. The built surface area in Barcelona in 2014 was 124.5 million m2 , 16% more than in 1999. Over half of that corresponded to the residential sector (64 million m2 ), followed by industrial sector premises, warehouses and car parks (25 million m2 ). Also noteworthy is the surface area dedicated to offi ces and the commercial sector (7.3 and 8.4 million m2 respectively). As regards energy, 106,400 existing buildings and 240 new-build buildings have been energy-certifi ed (2015). However, those fi gures only correspond to a percentage of all the buildings in the city. Categories D and E account for 58.2% of certifi cations, while 36.4% have a consumption and emissions above the average for the existing stock (categories F and G), 5.2% are in the effi cient categories (B and C) and only 0.2% are very efficient (category A). In the case of newbuild buildings, 38.3% have a D or E rating, 45.8% are effi cient buildings (B and C) and only 15.8% are very effi cient (A). These percentages show that new-build buildings are more effi cient and that there is considerable potential in existing buildings for improving energy effi ciency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The average age of residential buildings is more than 65 years, so they do not comply with today’s standards and require a lot of energy. In fact, 72% of the surface area of residential buildings was built before 1979, in other words before thermal standards were introduced. In that context, the energy renovation of buildings, dwellings and facilities takes on enormous importance. Renovating existing housing andbuildings should enable a reduction in energy demand and, consequently, mean less effort on the part of families to cover their energy costs, a key issue, especially in the more vulnerable parts of the city. Although there are specifi c energy regulations for new buildings, they are often based on the technology itself and not the features. Therefore, we need to promote the construction of efficient buildings and facilities and make sure they produce part, if not all the energy they require and, in that way, obtain buildings with almost zero consumption. We also need to work on developing regulations adapted to the city’s reality and ensure they are applied and complied with, as well as on tools (both administrative and economic, including incentives and discounts, among others), so the action on construction is effective and builders assume their responsibility as far as reducing consumption andemissions in the city is concerned. From a municipal perspective, buildings and facilities account for more than 50% of municipal energy consumption. So, acting on construction quality and building features, as well as on how they behave in energy use and management terms, at all levels and in all sectors (residential, commercial, service, public and industrial), and ensuring proper maintenance, with the necessary degree of specialisation and resources, are key factors in achieving significant reductions in final energy consumption and, consequently, in the associated emissions. | Pre-feasibility study status | Local | https://www.barcelona.cat/barcelona-pel-clima/sites/default/files/documents/climate_plan_maig.pdf | 1636762 | 2019 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[2.1775, 41.3823]} | 2021-07-16T02:19:09.367 | |||||

In the “Firenze cambia luce” program open meetings were held with citizens to illustrate the project that is giving a new face to nocturnal Florence and provide an answer to the questions of the inhabitants by replacing the old lighting bodies with the new 30,000 LED lights. The initiative is an opportunity for the inhabitants to get to know the project in detail and to ask their questions about it.The main impact is on the electricity consumption that, only for the city of Florence, is estimated to decrease of about 11,8 GWh, with a consistent savings on energy bills (between 1,5 and 2 million € per year depending on electricity tariffs).The external costs saved per year can be estimated around 340.000 €/y related to the pollutions savings in the electricity production. The external cost values take into account health, agriculture, materials and biodiversity damage associated with greenhouse gas emissions and of other pollutants (atmospheric gasses, heavy metals, trace pollutants) of the national energy mix.The monitoring is counting real time consumptions and working data of the public lighting system developed in parallel, as an extension of the district test, at city level and it is to be connected with the smart city control room. | Finance secured | 8500000 | (Sub)national | https://firenzecambialuce.it/ | 378839 | 2019 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[11.2558, 43.7696]} | 2021-07-16T02:19:09.367 | ||||

The Waste Strategy, developed and led by the Solid Waste Management Services Division, was approved by City Council in July 2016 and outlines the way waste will be managed in Toronto over the next 30-50 years. The Waste Strategy places a priority on diverting waste from landfill through the implementation of reduction, reuse, and waste diversion (i.e. recycling and composting) policies and programs. This long term goal of maximizing diversion from landfill is also a goal of TransformTO.Toronto is acting on Waste Strategy recommendations through the implementation of various new programs that support waste reduction, reuse and the transition towards a circular economy and zero waste future. One new program as outlined below focuses on textile collection and reuse.Textile Waste Diversion and Reduction Initiatives ReportThe City's Long Term Waste Management Strategy, adopted by City Council in July 2016, recommends the development and implementation of a Textile Collection and Reuse Strategy (Textile Strategy) to divert more textile material from landfill. The report in the link below provides an update on the City's current Textile Strategy including planning and implementation activities undertaken to date and maintenance and monitoring activities that will be used to measure outcomes of the implemented Textile Strategy. The report also includes an overview of the City's 2019 Clothing Drop Boxes bylaw review, including key bylaw amendments and implementation actions. Finally, the report summarizes next steps that Solid Waste Management Services and Municipal Licensing & Standards will work jointly on in order to further promote the reduction of textile waste both through the Textile Strategy and Clothing Drop Boxes bylaw.

The Partnership plays an important role in developing and advocating for solutions to key issues and helps unlock improvements to environmental performance in the commercial building sector and connect to the City’s green infrastructure plans. The Partnership is directed by a Leadership Panel, consisting of the sustainability managers of the founding members, and delivers solutions as agreed in an annual work plan defined by its members. Members are collectively saving $30 million a year in avoided energy costs.Emissions saved and cost of program data is given on program lifetime to date basis (FY13 to FY18). | Finance secured | 1750000 | Local | http://www.betterbuildingspartnership.com.au/ | 249676 | 2019 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[151.207, -33.8675]} | 2021-07-16T02:19:09.367 | ||||

If they fail to achieve the required reductions, they face penalties such as fines and the public disclosure of their violations.・TMG sets up a compliance period every five years and this program is currently in the midst of the 2nd compliance period and requires the facilities to make a 17% or 15% reduction from the base-year emissions of two categories of covered facilities. In FY 2018, emissions from the facilities were reduced by 27% compared to the base-year emissions. For the next compliance period in 2020, TMG sets higher compliance factor (27% or 25%) and strengthens our program.・This program covers 1,200 large facilities which emit almost 20% of the CO2 emissions in Tokyo. Therefore emission reductions by those facilities greatly contribute to the overall emission reduction of Tokyo, and are considered to have a major role in the drastic reduction of energy consumption in existing buildings. | Finance secured | 367017000 | Local | http://www.kankyo.metro.tokyo.jp/en/climate/cap_and_trade/index.html | 13951636 | 2020 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[139.41, 35.41]} | 2021-07-16T02:19:09.367 | ||
