Towards a Holistic Methodology: A Practical Approach to Local Energy Planning
Within the energy strategy 2050 the Swiss Confederation decided upon the nuclear fade-out and the reduction of CO2-emissions.The hereof derived ambitious sub-goals are to consecutively increase the share of renewable energy sources,improve energy efficiencies,enhance the domestically added value and finally reduce the dependency on foreign supplying countries.The realization of these goals and the final implementation of this self-decreed policy drop down on local stakeholders and especially the local communities.They often understand the need for action,but have neither a sufficient knowledge in this field nor the set of skills to oversee,let alone develop a local energy plan by themselves.To cope with the different aspects during the planning process and to empower communities,local stakeholders and local planers,a modular and thus adaptive method is in ongoing development.Here we present the core module for local energy planning and the module for monitoring and assessment of the planning process.Both modules were developed in cooperation with a local energy utility and a local community based on state-of-the-art systems engineering and systems thinking principles.As the target audience was chosen to be diverse in knowledge,resources and skill-sets the modules were designed to be as coherent and adaptable as possible.The local energy planning for instance allows for both: a hands-on planning approach as well as the integration of sophisticated optimization approaches(Like the energy-hub concept or similar).Further planned modules comprise stakeholder engagement/collective learning,business modelling(ongoing)and information quality assessment.
