Notion of Low-Carbon City
I believe it is one of the outputs of SUSTAINABLE CITY
…and a more realistic approach than the so-called ZERO CARBON CITY!
Low carbon city concept mainly focus on three aspects:
1) low carbon energy and low carbon idea,
2) low carbon governance and low carbon planning,
3) low carbon production and low carbon consumption.
“We will make our skies blue again”

Notion of Low-Carbon City
low-carbon economy (LCE)
low-fossil-fuel economy (LFFE)
or Decarbonised economy
Low Carbon Cities in China
$1 trillion in investment is needed over the next five
years to build low-carbon cities in China
[according to news in June 2016]
Ma Jun, who chairs the Green Finance Committee, China Society
for Banking and Finance, and supported the research, said:
“Greening of buildings, transportation and energy will be crucial
as these sectors are the main sources of urban emissions.”

One of the main driving forces for sustainable development

The Story
The proposal of ILCC planning is mainly based on the slogan of:
“Limit Investment, Fast Achievement”
Initially known to many as the Sino-Dutch Low Carbon City
Sino-Dutch Low Carbon City
2012 Agreement: China+EU
Sino-European Low Carbon City
But then new actors joined
New NON-EUROPEANs
INTERNATIONAL Low Carbon City
hence: ILCC

Shenzhen’s Model of ILCC
For Pingdi ILCC project, three aspects of
‘Technology’, ‘Policy’, and ‘Market’
remain central to its low carbon agenda.
The mapping study of these actors demonstrates the effectiveness of
the project’s gathering vision; i.e. gathering the knowledge and
collaborations to develop the next phases of the project.
Our up-to-date reviews and results from the current status of the
project demonstrate a positive move towards most of these projects;
at least at the construction phase and planning of new zones and
demonstration areas in the phase one of the ILCC project.
