TY - RPRT U1 - Arbeitspapier A1 - Vallentin, Daniel A1 - Xia-Bauer, Chun T1 - Sino-German pilot studies for a low carbon urban development : the City of Wuxi and the Düsseldorf+ Region ; objectives, key findings, conclusions N2 - The brochure summarises the project's objectives and methodological approach, its key findings as well as conclusions. Both case studies have shown that technological solutions for low carbon development should be embedded in a well-developed institutional framework to foster their deployment and implementation. Therefore, recommendations for Wuxi include examples of innovative and integrated technical projects for increasing energy and resource efficiency, combining them with recommendations for the development of institutional frameworks. One element of such a framework could be a local energy agency in Wuxi, which would offer support and expertise to potential investors in low carbon technologies. Also for the German pilot region, the brochure offers concrete recommendations how to facilitate low carbon planning within the region.
