Why ECO2?
The idea for ECO2 came about when the strategic regional planning for Tampere region started in 2007
Regional Climate Strategy 2010 The implementation of the Regional Climate
strategy required cross- sectoral coordination
The benefits of tackling climate change: Supporting green growth Cost benefits A more comfortable city for citizens The benefits for city image Preparing for stricter climate regulation in the
future

Renewable energy
Renewable energy pilot project together with 6 largest cities in Finland
• Tampere: solar energy, wood pellet power plant, small-scale bio district heating, carbon neutral Särkänniemi Adventure Park and Tampere Hall Congress and Concert Centre
Charting the potential for small-scale wind power and solar energy in the city area

Eco-efficient built environment
Tools for ecoefficient urban planning
Economic incentives for low energy buildings (piloted in Vuores)
Energy system analysis as a part of the urban planning process (e.g. Koukkuranta, Isokuusi)
All new buildings constructed by the city are at least energy class A
All new buildings (2012 ) built in city owned plots have to be at least energy class A
A new information center for sustainable building and construction and energy use in housing
Promoting eco-efficient complementary construction (Tammela)• Eco-efficient urban development projects in: e.g. Härmälänranta, Vuores housing fair area, Koukkuranta,
Nurmi-Sorila “Sun City”, wood Vuores
Steering the whole urban planning process towards eco-efficiency

Eco-efficiency tool for urban development
Project aim is to create an eco-efficiency toolfor urban development. Tool is developedtogether with 7 cities, 2 developers and Ministryof Environment. Research is done by VTTResearch Centre of Finland, Aalto-universityand Finnish Environmental Institute.
Tool is designed to be usedboth by public andPrivate sector.

Mayors’ climate network
10.04.23 21
• The mayors of the the six largest cities of Finland established the Mayors’ climate network in Spring 2011.
• The mayor of Tampere Timo P. Nieminen is the chair and the ECO2 team acts as secretary.• In August 2011 six climate initiatives were announced:
• development of a roadmap on energy-smart construction for each city• development of construction instructions and supervision in the direction of energy information
and quality management• development of climate information and support for citizens’ climate acts through a joint project by
the cities• assignment of eco-support staff for workplaces• lowering the need for travel by introduction of teleconferencing• climate impact assessment in budgeting

From new ideas to established practices examples
The Mechanism Example What is still needed
Integrating eco-efficiency in policy guidelines
New regulations for energy efficiency were integrateding in land use policy in November 2011
Implementation follow-up
Capacity development through pilots
Vuores area as a platform for eco-efficiency, i.e. Energy system analysis as a part of planning process
Resources and education for planners, nominating a responsible person for energy aspects
New regulations
Developing easy-to-use tools and checklists
Eco-efficiency tool for
urban planning
A decision that the tool will be used in all urban planning processes
Developing new practices and ownership of energy efficiency through projects (choosing the right owner for the project)
Tapre-project, funded partly by ECO2, coordinated by Tampere Real Estate services
Scaling-out the project to residential sector
Learning from good examples ECO2 forums
