6 The cooperation under this MOU will include 1.Exchange of experiences regarding environmental policies 2. Scientific and technological cooperation 3. Cooperation regarding developing monitoring and enforcement mechanisms 4. Participation in relevant regional and international fora 5. Cooperation regarding education and training.

7 The cooperation under this MOU will focus on the following areas: 1.Environmental technologies; 2. Climate change; 3.Energy efficiency and renewable energy sources and technologies; 4. Sustainable building; 5. Sustainable waste management; 6. Sustainable water management; and 7. Any other area upon which the entities reach an understanding.

8 The Debate is O-vah... the Science is Kleah Kalifornia will be the Leader in fighting Climate Change

9 Signed into law June 1, 2005 Established State Agency Climate Action Team (CAT) Set GHG reduction targets: To 2000 levels by 2010 To 1990 levels by % below 1990 levels by 2050

10 Requires fuel providers to reduce carbon intensity of fuels sold in state; will reduce carbon content by 10% by 2020 $2.9B incentive plan for home and building owners who install p.v. electric systems one million solar roofs in CA by 2018, providing 3,000MW and reducing GHGs by 3M tons annually Envisions a network of hydrogen fuel stations, with 25 stations in operation as of July, 2007, and ten more stations under construction in 2008

11 Established first-in-the-world comprehensive program of regulatory and market mechanisms to achieve real, quantifiable, cost-effective reductions of GHG emissions Charges the California Air Resources Board with determination of the 1990 emission baseline (completed August 2008); and Establishes implementation targets by sectors (Draft Scoping Plan issued earlier this month)

12 Sets emission reduction goals for metropolitan regions Integrates disjointed planning activities, such as regional transportation with local land use planning Creates incentives for local governments and developers to follow new, conscientiously-planned growth patterns

20 GIS Tools for Sustainable Buildings and Communities St. Pölten, Niederösterreich Tim s BIMs to SIMs/LIMs (A GIS conversion tool to navigate between Building Information Models and Site Information Models/Land Information Models) Summerwind Ranch, Calimesa, CA

21 A representation of a design as objects generic or product-specific, solid shapes or void-space oriented (like the shape of a room), that carry their geometry and attributes may be 2D or 3D may be abstract and conceptual or construction-detailed. Chuck Eastman, AEC Integration Laboratory

22 BIMs for Architecture is about Intelligent Objects & Parametric Design Parameters Basic Design Objects Integrated Views, Extractions & Data Representations 3d Model

24 Applying BIM to Landscape Architecture is about Simulating the Real world

25 Intelligent Objects Analysis/ Interactions/ Models

26 Embracing the SIM Idea A SIM may interface with / integrate several BIMs to model the larger environment INPUTS Water Users Power Other Utilites BIM 1 OUTPUTS Heat Electric Consumption Parking Demand Waste (water, solids) BIM 2 Site Components, Information & Processes A LIM may interface with / integrate several SIMs PLANNING DESIGN CONSTRUCTION OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT Site Development Life Cycle

27 Laser-metric modeling Energy use monitoring and assessment CO2 calculators

31 Every major city in the world uses City scale GIS models City and Regional utility and energy infrastructure models

32

33 SIM/LIMs would aggregate BIMs of certain building types, ages, converting them to energy use polygons Would enable City Utility Managers to assess energy use by neighborhoods to prioritize energy conservation program implementation and monitoring Together with Energy Calculators, provides tool for assessment and monitoring of compliance toward GHG reduction goals

34 Environmental Technology Exhibitions in Southern California following RETECH 2009, and in Vienna in Fall 2009-early 2010 Academic exchange program focussed on Renewable Energies with the Technische Universität Wien; and Sustainable Development Program Universität für Bodenkultur Wien (BOKU) Building a broader U.S.-California Energy Globe Program

35 Dis problem is biggah dan Kaleefornia, but togedda We can do it!
