“…In this case for example the ecosystem services framework is a relevant tool to express landscape values for negotiations. The research reported in this paper illustrates participatory ecosystem services trade-off assessment that environmental designers and other practitioners can adopt to support communities envisioning their future energy landscape (also see Stremke and Picchi, 2017).…”

PurposeThe transition to a low carbon future is an emerging challenge and requires the planning and designing of sustainable energy landscapes – landscapes that provide renewable energy while safeguarding the supply of other ecosystem services. The aim of this paper is to present the application of an ecosystem services trade-off assessment in the development of sustainable energy landscapes for long-term strategic planning in a case study in Schouwen-Duivenland, The Netherlands.Design/methodology/approachThe application consists in three activities: in (1) stakeholder mapping hot spots of ecosystem services and renewable energy technologies in a workshop, (2) landscape design principles being discussed by a focus group, (3) experts gathering the information and proceeding with an assessment of the potential synergies and trade-offs.FindingsThe case study indicates that (1) deploying the ecosystem services framework in planning and design can enhance the development of sustainable energy landscapes, (2) diversified and accurate spatial reference systems advance the trade-off analysis of both regulating and cultural ecosystem services and (3) the involvement of local stakeholders can advance the trade-off analysis and, ultimately, facilitates the transition to a low-carbon future with sustainable energy landscapes.Originality/valueThe originality of this research lies in the creation of an approach for the deployment of ecosystem services in the planning and design of energy transition. This is useful to advance energy transition by enhancing research methods, by providing methods useful for planners and designers and by supporting communities pursuing energy self-sufficiency in a sustainable manner.

“…This is not only a matter of simply changing to renewable forms of energy, such as hydropower, solar, wind, geothermal and other types of energy production. Key question is, that the whole organisation of energy production, consumption, storage and transport is going to change completely with these new forms of renewable energy (Stremke, 2010;Stremke, 2014;Pellerin-Carlin et al, 2017).…”

STRESZCZENIEW artykule zwrócono uwagę na teoretyczne tło przeprojektowywania XIX-wiecznych parków publicznych w Europie Środkowej i Wschodniej. Badania są częścią większego projektu -"Historia projektowania XIX-wiecznych parków publicznych w Europie Środkowej i Wschodniej; współczesne użytkowanie i przyszły rozwój" (HYPPE) zapoczątkowanego przez Wydział Architektury Krajobrazu i Urbanistyki w Budapeszcie, w którym uczestniczyło dziewięć różnych krajów w Europie Środkowej i Wschodniej.Skoncentrowano się na teoretycznym tle stanowiącym podstawę dla badań i podejścia projektowego i zapewniającym różnorodność i podobieństwo miejsc, kontekstów i problemów projektowych. Produkt (plan i realizacja) oraz proces (projektowanie) odgrywały rolę w parkach jako skutek planowania i projektowania; z jednej strony rozgraniczamy ziemię, krajobraz i architekturę krajobrazu, z drugiej -w tym samym czasie różnica w podejściu pomiędzy nauką i projektowaniem odgrywa znaczącą rolę w relacji pomiędzy badaniami a projektowaniem. W drugiej części omówiono tła i zasady stanowiące podstawę relacji pomiędzy konserwacją i rozwojem w historycznych założeniach parkowych. Podkreślono różne podejścia projektowe -od zachowawczej konserwacji do całkowitej rekonstrukcji. Zastosowanie tych zasad do XIX-wiecznych parków publicznych w Europie Środkowej i Wschodniej pokazuje, gdzie spotykają się ogólne tła i specyfika miejsca, historii i kultury.W trzeciej części omówiono nowe wyzwania dla architektów krajobrazu, wynikające z oczekiwań społecznych wobec współczesnego planowania i projektowania. Transformacja energetyczna, gospodarka wodna i tworzenie zdrowego środowiska życia ludzi nie są rzeczami nowymi dla architektów krajobrazu, ale na tym etapie należy podjąć nowe działania, wykraczające poza to, co do tej pory było praktykowane. W tym przypadku na pierwszy plan wychodzi eksploracyjny i eksperymentalny charakter podejścia projektowego, PL

“…Stakeholders advocate social equity, demanding direct participation as actors in the economic process: for example, through the creation of energy communities or RE plants co-ownership when those are installed in their living environment [7][8][9]. Beside social equity, stakeholders also advocate for landscape sustainability, wanting direct participation in the decision-making process about the changes in their living environment due to the RE plants [10,11]. The living environment is understood here as landscape defined in the European Landscape Convention: 'an area, as perceived by people, whose character is the result of the action and interaction of natural and/or human factors' (Art.…”

“…The development of sustainable energy landscapes requires informed decision-making and genuine community participation. The latter may benefit the sustainability of the energy transition depending on the context, not only in terms of position, quality and quantity of renewable energy technologies (RET) at the planning level but possibly also in terms of co-ownership of power plants and co-design of integrated and multifunctional energy systems (see, e.g., [10,26,28,29]).…”

Regional Strategy, Municipality Plans and Site Designs for Energy Transition in Amsterdam, The Netherlands: How Sustainable Are Implementation Processes on Different Spatial Levels?

Energy transition has a prominent role in 21st-century urban agendas. Worldwide, cities pursue the local implementation of international, national and regional agendas aiming at a sustainable energy transition. Landscape integration, multifunctionality and community participation are three of the key concepts here. These concepts are interpreted differently across the different spatial levels. The object of this paper is to analyse the application of the three sustainability concepts at the regional, local and site levels for the city of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The results show that the degree of implementation of the concepts depends on what factors are considered important at each spatial level. At the regional and local levels, landscape integration with regards to social factors such as finances and co-ownership drive successful implementation, thanks to the organisation of effective participatory processes. At the site level, landscape integration and multifunctionality with regards to spatial factors such as the ecological, recreational and historical landscape factors drive successful implementation through effective landscape design activities. However, the sustainability of the energy transition implementation process is affected by a lack of social-ecological systems thinking. Participation processes—if present—focus either on social or spatial factors but fail to interconnect them. The regional and local levels that currently demonstrate major abstraction and separation of social and spatial factors would benefit from effective exchange with the site level. At that scale, design activities are the arena to combine and reconcile social and spatial factors.
