City of Turku Climate and Environment Programme 2009-2013
Guiding principles / programme aims:
• Reducing GHG emissions
• Improving energy-efficiency
• Increasing the use of renewable energy
• Promoting sustainable mobility and developing public transport
• Applying sustainable procurement and logistics
• Reducing the greenhouse impact of waste management
• Protecting water bodies (esp. Archipelago / Baltic Sea)
• Promoting Biodiversity
• Building environmental competencies and responsibility
• Environmental/SD education
5
Guiding principle Target Indicator Resource impact (2010-2013)
To reduce greenhouse gas
emissions.
A reduction of at least
30%/inhabitant from the 1990
level by 2020 and a reduction of
at least 20% in total emissions.
Emissions calculated in a
consumption-based manner
using the Kasvener model (t-
CO2-equivalent, monitored in
relation to the annual reduction
according to the target)*.
Use of labour and investments
to implement the programme.
To improve energy
efficiency.
A 9% improvement from the
2005 level by 2016 (Energy
Efficiency Agreement).
Energy savings per year
(MWh/year).
Produces energy savings.
Investments mainly
implemented according to the
ESCO principle (external
capital, which is repaid from
the energy saved).
20% improvement from the
2005 level by 2020 (EU’s
indicative target).
Energy savings per year
(MWh/year).
Working time reserved for
personnel training.
Examples of programme structure…
6
Guiding principle Target Indicator Resource impact (2010-2013)
To increase the use of
renewable energy sources.
At least 50% of district heating
will be produced using
renewables by 2020.
The share of renewables in
district heating production.
Investment costs included in the
Turku Energy plans.
100% of the electricity
purchased by the city will be
produced using renewables by
2013.
The share of renewables in
electricity procured by the city.
An increase of about EUR
50,000-100,000 in the cost of the
city’s electricity per year.
7
Guiding principle Target Indicator Resource impact (2010-2013)

Turku Energia’s objective is to
exceed 60 % renevable
milestone by the year 2020:
1. New regional CHP plant with
increased renewable capacity
2. Expansion of Oriketo bioheating
plant
3. Expansion of the Kakola heat
pump plant
4. Waste incineration plant
5. Biogas from the Topinoja landfill
6. Heat recovery from the industrial
and residential premises
How to best complement the development of the centralized renewable energy production portfolio with decentralized renewable energy, energy-efficiency and smart grid?
Prepare knowledge-basis on Smart Energy System for Turku region
OBJECTIVE 4: Build up the knowledge-basis
• The city is lagging behind – constantly – as it was always
aimed for tomorrow but designed yesterday.
• Current structures are sectorial – most of the current and
emerging challenges are not.
• Change is rapid and an improved knowledge-ability is required
but we have had insufficient practices for that.
As responses, we have:
New co-operation with research
New co-operation with the business sector
Organisational development
Capacity-development of staff
Turku Urban Research Programme
• Developed and implemented jointly with the universities
• Being increasingly informed by research should promote abilities in
policy-design and decision-making.
• Consultative practices for implications of existing academic knowledge
• Remarkable contributions have been made for design of actions on
climate and environment.
Knowledge-ability
Conditions of development, restructuring and success
Information on context-specific development which supports
collaboration with other cities or institutions
Tools to manage multi-disciplinary information, measuring and
evaluations
The programme is a new mechanism to create knowledge together and to
make use of the existing one.
New cooperation projects with businesses for learning together
Piloting in the World Business Council’s Urban Infrastructure Initiative 2010 – 2011
• Identifying the infrastructure challenges of Turku and analysing potential solutions from businesses
• Enhanced joint knowledge-creation and planning process.
Strategic Partnership with Siemens 2012 – 2014
• Combining the perspectives for making Turku “future-ready”.
• Developing the company’s approach and contributions towards small and medium-sized cities.
• www.turku.fi/siemens
Large “local coalition” mobilised for a local sustainable transport solution
• Biogas from local sources by local producers for local transport
