Limiting consumption tothis increase will require homes to incorporate energy efficiency upgrades and/or renewables.- Commercial building natural gas consumption does not go above 448,167,147 m3 (limited to anincrease of approximately 124 percent relative to the 2011 sector baseline). Limiting consumption tothis increase will require commercial buildings to incorporate energy efficiency upgrades and/orrenewables.- 8% of all residential homes have incorporated renewables and/or made significant energy efficiencyupgrades to work towards the achievement of having a net-zero energy and emissions footprint.Renewable measures are likely to include the implementation of (biomass) district energy systems,geo-exchange, and solar technologies or significantly reduce the need for natural gas for space andwater heating.- 12% of all commercial and industrial buildings have included renewables and/or made significantenergy efficiency upgrades that significantly reduce the need for natural gas and work towards being anet-zero building.

415Cities 202150579City of WinnipegCanadaNorth Americapublic5. Emissions ReductionMitigation Target setting5Other, please specify: Land UseThe contribution of land use to GHG emission reductions is primarily realized through other sectors (i.e.,transportation and buildings).Same (city-wide) – covers entire city and nothing else20112018Yes - 2 °CThis target does not contribute towards an initiative commitmentNoThe contribution of land use to GHG emission reductions is primarily realized through other sectors (i.e., transportation and buildings). For example, as the City becomes more spread out with growth occurring primarily at the periphery, the number and length of personal vehicle travel increases, and other mobility options become less viable or more costly to implement. The type of residential development influences building emissions – in general single detached houses are more energy intensive than multi-unit residential buildings. Therefore, supporting diverse housing forms, density, complete community and transit-oriented development are land use strategies that support the reduction of GHG emissions from transportation and buildings. Evaluating the success of land use related actions therefore necessitates a consideration of indicators in these other sectors. To work towards the City’s overall emission reduction goals, the City seeks to support residential infill and greater densities in strategic locations that provide convenient access to transit. More specifically, it is envisioned that by 2031:- 50% of all new residential construction takes place in strategic infill locations.

This starts with developing renewable energy sources--community solar provides the opportunity to develop significant renewable generation near toJersey City in the near term, and municipal energy aggregation and continuing to work with thestate offer longer term opportunities to clean the grid. While electricity becomes cleaner buildings canbegin to transition heating to high-efficiency electric heat pumps. Buildings currently using fuel oil orpropane for heating are the best place to start this transition, offering significant cost savings andreducing local air pollution.

A majorfocus of Jersey City’s approach to reducing transportation emissions is to improveopportunities for bicycling, walking and use of transit. While transit use is alreadyrelatively high in Jersey City, some parts of the city have limited access to transit. Inaddition, adding infrastructure for safer and more enjoyable bicycling and walkingis a priority. Planning and zoning also presents an opportunity to strengthen mixeduse walkable communities, while also increasing tree canopy and green space toincrease resilience to heat and flooding events. In addition to the above strategies,Jersey City will promote electrification of municipal, transit, and private vehicles.

In addition, recycling, reuse and waste prevention offer opportunities to reduce upstream emissions from the production of goods and food, having an impact larger than the direct waste emissions would imply. Jersey City has the opportunity to start building a circular economy, creating jobs in industries such as composting, repair and reuse to close the loop. The GHG inventory only includes waste emissions that occur directly at the landfill. The emissions from producing the raw materials and products that ultimately end up in the landfill are larger, but harder to quantify. Efforts to extend the life of products, reduce unnecessary packaging and increase recycling can have emissions benefits larger than would be suggested by the waste portion of the Jersey City GHG inventory. Because these emissions benefits are likely a long distance away where materials are extracted or manufacturing occurs, they are not directly reflected in the community GHG inventory.
