-General information/Abstract: “The Alps have great potential for the use of renewable energy. Thereby they can make a valuable contribution to mitigating climate change. This, however, means increasing pressures on nature. What could be the impact of such changes on the habitats of animals and plants? How do they affect land use and soil quality? How much renewable energy can reasonably be used? The project recharge.green brings together 16 partners to develop strategies and tools for decision-making on such issues. The analysis and comparison of the costs and benefits of renewable energy, ecosystem services, and potential trade-offs is a key component in this process. The project will last from October 2012 to June 2015 and is co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund in the Alpine Space Programme.” Source: [[http://www.recharge-green.eu/project/|http://www.recharge-green.eu/project/]]+  * General information/Abstract: “The Alps have great potential for the use of renewable energy.

-Related WebGIS: [[http://jecami.eu/|http://jecami.eu/]]+  * Input data are mostly not available. Not available for the whole Alpine Space. We would have to check, if all Living Labs Ski resorts have all those data (see last input data block) at their disposal in an adequate high resolution. Additionally we could contact r.green@eurac.edu for an existing database. This database would be probably very coarse at Alpine Space level (10km pixels are not interesting for ski resort high resolution calculations). 
 +  * In any case, to adapt these tools, collect data, prepare and integrate data in our database/WebGIS, create an adequate interface and complete the other technologies would need a lot of time both for energy experts as well as WebGIS/GIS experts for finding a useful agreement and implementation, it is to decide in project consortium, if main part of IGF-time should be used to calculated renewable potential in the three Living Labs. Is usage/output expected to be useful enough in Smart Altitude? 
 +  * Only forest biomass and hydropower available – not all four or more technologies, incomplete impression of potential, is there enough expertise in our project consortium to calculate all possible other renewable technologies, that would make sense in a ski resort? 
 +  * Hydropower is very difficult to calculate for a big area. Furthermore it can be presumed, that ski resorts know very well if hydropower could be used in their territory or area of influence. Likely the renewable potential in general is well known and can be calculated in detail only by ingenieurs at a very high resolution, in which general GIS tools are not appropriate 
 +  * Renewable potential is either known or has to be calculated by engeneers in detail 
 +  * Forest biomass as renewable potential competes against forest as protection forest for example against avalanches, a very important function in ski resorts; ski resorts probably know very well, if their forest is needed or if significant amount of wood can be transported not to cheap or complicated because of topographic limitations to use it for regional energy production

 +Duration: December 2015 until December 2018 \\ 
 +[[https://www.regio-v.at/cesba-alps|https://www.regio-v.at/cesba-alps]] 
 + 
 +  * Objectives: “While sustainability assessment tools are already well-established for buildings and small urban areas, such tools do not yet exist for the built environment at the level of terri-tories. CESBA Alps aims to improve the sustainability of the Alpine built environment through the development of the first assessment tool at territorial scale, which will be contextual-ized to regional specificities.Through objective criteria and performance indicators ad-dressing all dimensions of sustainability, the tool will support the sustainability assessment of a territory, the definition of objective performance targets, the decision making in plan-ning processes and the implementation and monitoring of effective low carbon policies.” "9 local CESBA Committees (CLCs) will be developed to implement and test the CESBA STT tool in the pilot regions." [[http://www.alpine-space.eu/projects/cesba-alps/en/about|http://www.alpine-space.eu/projects/cesba-alps/en/about]] 
 +  * CESBA Alps - Sustainable Territories: “Currently available sustainability assessment tools cover buildings and small urban areas, with no support for the territorial scale, typical in the rural, low density Alpine regions. The “CESBA Alps” project aims to facilitate the development, exchange, and implementation of innovative policies and plans for energy planning at territorial level based on common assessment tools. By developing a transnational assessment framework and an incentive for sustainable and low carbon construction and economy, the project will improve the sustainability and energy efficiency of the Alpine built environment.” “The Regional Development Vorarlberg (Regio-V) is one of ten project partners. Together with the energy region Leiblachtal Regio-V wants to develop instruments for energy planning in the valley, set up structures for a long-term monitoring and develop an incentive for continuous improvement. Thereby the partners want to contribute to achieving energy self-sufficiency in Vorarlberg.” [[http://www.alpine-space.eu/projects/cesba-alps/en/about|http://www.alpine-space.eu/projects/cesba-alps/en/about]]

 + 
 +  * Project summary: “Integrated low carbon policies and sustainable energy plans in the Alpine Space region are affected by common challenges. The future energy system, relying on renewable energies, will challenge all governance levels. Therefore, cooperation actions between all governance layers from villages to countries can help to make the Alpine Space a successful partner in the EU “new energy deal” for energy efficiency and renewable energy. The IMEAS multi-disciplinary team of technical, sociological, territorial partners, will develop a consistent methodology and practical guidance for the creation and integration of roadmaps based on multi-level approaches to climate change mitigation, energy innovation potentials, economic structures and control of energy plans. Experiences from some areas will help fill gaps in others through a cooperative and transnational approach capitalising the heterogeneity of the Alpine Space, their different cultures, planning principles and practice with software tools. To enhance the ability of public administrations and other entities to plan sustainable energy policies and select the right measures/instruments to implement them on a multi-level governance perspective, IMEAS will propose a new integrated approach to participatory roadmap development.” [[http://www.alpine-space.eu/projects/imeas/en/about/the-project/overview]]

 + 
 +Transfer to Smart Altitude: 
 +  * Individual energy-proposals/solutions of pilot regions could serve as ideas for ski resorts as well (they calculated the local renewable potential for all pilot regions) 
 +  * Deals also with energy measurement and user behaviour
  
-Contextually critical points: 
  
-  * Only forest biomass and hydropower available – not all four or more technologies  incomplete impression of potential, is there enough expertise in our project consortium to calculate all possible other renewable technologies, that would make sense in a ski resort? 
-  * Hydropower is very difficult to calculate for a big area. Furthermore it can be presumed, that ski resorts know very well if hydropower could be used in their territory or area of influence. Likely the renewable potential in general is well known and can be calculated in detail only by ingenieurs at a very high resolution, in which general GIS tools are not appropriate 
-  * Renewable potential is either known or has to be calculated by engeneers in detail 
-  * Forest biomass as renewable potential competes against forest as protection forest for example against avalanches, a very important function in ski resorts; ski resorts probably know very well, if their forest is needed or if significant amount of wood can be transported not to cheap or complicated because of topographic limitations to use it for regional energy production
