Klimaschutz durch Effizienzsteigerung bei Kühlgeräten mittels Nachfragebündelung : Kurzfassung
(2003)
The brochure focuses on the significance of the construction sector and aim to collect world-wide innovative project approaches that have already been implemented to promote the concepts. Using a key number of internationally accepted criteria, the main considerations have been the energy efficiency and in a broad sense also the resource efficiency of the projects.
Im Auftrag des BMZ werden innovative Technologieentwicklungen in Deutschland und Europa eruiert und bewertet. Ziel ist es, Entwicklungen frühzeitig zu erkennen, die für Entwicklungsländer und die internationale Zusammenarbeit wichtig sein können. Der inhaltliche Schwerpunkt liegt hierbei in den Bereichen Trinkwasser- und Energiebereitstellung. Die Untersuchung gliedert sich in drei Elemente. Zunächst besteht die Aufgabe darin, eine Screening-Methodik inklusive Kriterien/Indikatoren auszuarbeiten, anhand derer potenziell interessante Ansätze ermittelt werden können. Im zweiten Schritt wird mit Hilfe dieser Methodik eine Vorauswahl für viel versprechende Projekte vorgenommen. In dieser Auswahl ist bereits eine erste Einschätzung hinsichtlich der möglichen Umsetzbarkeit der Ansätze im Sinne von nachhaltiger Entwicklung, also unter Beachtung ökologischer, ökonomischer und sozialer Kriterien, enthalten. Im dritten Schritt wird eine zusammenfassende Bewertung der einzelnen Technologien vorgenommen. Da es sich hier um die Betrachtung neuer, innovativer Technologien handelt, für die der Informationsstand häufig vergleichsweise gering ist, muss die vorgenommene Bewertung vor diesem Hintergrund gesehen werden und kann allenfalls als eine Art grundsätzliche Einschätzung verstanden werden. Nach Rückkopplung mit dem Auftraggeber wird das Thema "Algen" näher hinterfragt und in die Arbeit integriert.
In this second brochure, WISIONS aims to focus on the significance of a combined approach to water and energy and to present a number of projects from around the globe that have been successfully implemented, with the intention of further promoting the particular approaches used by these projects. Using a key number of internationally accepted criteria, the main consideration for selection of the projects was energy and resource efficiency, but social aspects such as the inclusion of local population were also of relevance. The assessment of the projects also included the consideration of regional factors acknowledging different needs and potentials.

Evaluation des Online-Modernisierungsratgebers von co2online : Beiträge des Wuppertal Instituts
(2006)
Der Verkehrssektor ist keineswegs der einzige, jedoch ein wesentlicher Verursacher der Klimaprobleme. Der Automobilverkehr als traditioneller Hauptbelaster im Verkehrsbereich zeigt zwar vergleichsweise positive Tendenzen, trotzdem ist auch hier noch erheblicher weiterer Handlungsbedarf gegeben. Das Wuppertal Institut hat hier in übersichtlicher und systematischer Form Stand und Perspektiven zusammengetragen. Nach einer ausführlichen Einbettung in den Klimadiskurs erfolgt die schrittweise Konzentration auf den PKW-Verkehr Deutschlands. Für diesen Bereich werden im Detail die denkbaren technischen Ansätze und die möglichen Umsetzungsmaßnahmen erörtert.
