8 Development of SAMUI Low Carbon Model Town (LCMT) Moving SAMUI toward Low Carbon Town

9 Low Carbon Methodology High Level Vision People Oriented Social & Human Value The First Low Carbon Island in Asia Pacific Local culture and life style well mixed with modern life style Improve quality of life with eco lifestyle Tourists satisfaction with low carbon lifestyle Natural resources well preserved and undamaged Environment and Resources Value Green environment enhancement (green products) Low carbon emission for; Hotels, resorts, schools, houses etc. Transports etc. Economic Value High value of land and economy Investment attraction

10 Low Carbon Methodology Target Setting SAMUI low carbon target BAU Forecast :

11 LCMT Measures for SAMUI Island (1) TOWN STRUCTURE PLANNING for Low Carbon Development Greenery Areas : Forests, Orchards and Urban Areas Non Greenery : Sustainable Communities Non Automobiles Oriented Communities : Walking Streets (9) ECO LIFESTYLE Low Carbon Center INCENTIVE PROGRAMME Awards Subsidies (2) TRANSPORTATION Upgrading Public Transportation Diffusion of Low Carbon Vehicles and Development of Charging Stations Mobility Management (3) (7) ENERGY SUPPLY SIDE Area Energy Planning Renewable Energy Untapped Energy Use Eco Point Programme Eco Events Eco Activities Tax Soft loans Spacing for bicycle and pedestrian Improvement of road condition Providing appropriate sightseeing information DEMAND SIDE Area Energy Management Low Carbon Building (8) ENVIRONMENT Water Supply Management Solid Waste Management Waste Water Management

12 LCMT Measures for SAMUI Island 9 BASKETS of LCMT Measures Feasibility Study of Low Carbon Development APEC LCMT SAMUI Island For Samui Island, Thailand.

13 1. Town Structure Planning Greenery Areas 1.1 Reforestation (4 sqkm): Tree bank establishment and plant in the canal s estuary. 1.2 Orchards : Multistory" tree gardens (add 30,000 rai of medium height, 6,800 rai of low height) to protect existing trees Replacement by planting of economic and higher CO 2 absorption rate trees (30,000 rai of Palm oil and Pine tree; 8,000 rai of low height and 5,500 rai of Para rubber trees) to protect existing trees To supply Bio diesel production Feasibility Study of Low Carbon Development APEC LCMT For Samui SAMUI Island, Island Thailand.

14 1. Town Structure Planning Greenery Areas 1.3 Urban Areas Development of comfortable and Greenery Walk Pass and Street Trees on footpath Ficus Pulima wall Existing After Plant on steel structure Existing After Feasibility Study of Low Carbon Development APEC LCMT For Samui SAMUI Island, Island Thailand.

15 1. Town Structure Planning Greenery Areas 1.3 Urban Areas (Continue ) Development of comfortable and Greenery Walk Pass and Street Highway Trees (Route 4169; 8,333 trees) Improvement of building envelope by using Bio facade Example Trees in public space Adding trees in Resort Area Comfortable and Greenery Beaches Feasibility Study of Low Carbon Development APEC LCMT For Samui SAMUI Island, Island Thailand.

16 1. Town Structure Planning Non Greenery Sustainable Communities Feasibility Study of Low Carbon Development APEC LCMT For Samui SAMUI Island, Island Thailand.

17 1. Town Structure Planning Non Greenery Sustainable Communities Communities in SAMUI Island Existing Communities 5 major communities 3 potential towns Feasibility Study of Low Carbon Development APEC LCMT For Samui SAMUI Island, Island Thailand.

18 1. Town Structure Planning Non Greenery Non automobile oriented communities : Walking Street Walking Streets Introduce Low Carbon Shuttle Bus BEFORE AFTER Feasibility Study of Low Carbon Development APEC LCMT For Samui SAMUI Island, Island Thailand.

19 2.Transportation Planning

20 What type of vehicle or system should be selected for SAMUI? BRT bus system should be considered for connecting each community,air port, ferry port and other main place. Conclusion Transportation demand in Samui may be not big for elevated public transportation such as monorail. BRT s capacity is feasible and initial cost and management cost is cheaper than monorail. Customized bus vehicle design may be symbol of Low carbon Samui

21 2.Transportation Planning Low Carbon Vehicles Future in Y2030 Personal Vehicles (Unit of Vehicle) Public Transportation Vehicles (Unit of Vehicle) Car Motorcycle Taxi Big Bus Van Mini Bus Number in Y ,168 23, Forecast Number in Y ,300 44,300 1, % Coverage by Low Carbon Vehicles 10% 30% 30% 10% 10% 10% Number of Low Carbon Vehicles in Y2030 3,730 13,

22 2.Transportation Planning Charging Station Charging Stations : Three charging outlets, PV Roof and three parking lots

23 3.Area Energy Planning EE Power from Mainland Submarine Cable 193 MW Potential of EE Generating on SAMUI using LC Emission Sources/Technologies ~ 100 MW 50% APEC LCMT SAMUI Island

24 4. Area Energy Management Chaweng : Micro Grid Model

25

26 5. Renewable Energy Potential Solar PV Farm 35 MW Solar PV Rooftop 50 MW Solar Street Lighting (LED)

27 5. Renewable Energy Wind Energy

28 5. Renewable Energy Small Hydroelectric Power

29 Potential of Electricity Generation from Solar, Wind and Hydropower on SAMUI Island

30 6. Untapped Energy Use Planning 2 x 200 ton/d New Incinerator Plant with 3.28 MW Electricity Generation Or 1x 100 ton/d New Incinerator Plant with 1.64 MW Electricity Generation

31 7. Low Carbon Building Low Carbon Resort Model

32 7. Low Carbon Building

33 7. Low Carbon Building Government Building APEC LCMT SAMUI Island

34 8. Environmental Planning : Water Supply System Recommendation Use recycling water for irrigation. Recommendations for the Development of Various Reservoirs on Samui Island. Recommendation for Water Supply System Development

35 Wastewater Planning : Recommendation Short term Plan The system should be repaired. Encourage Mangrove wetlands as WWTP. Apply advanced service charges for wastewater. Offer incentives to the public in order to reduce the level of wastewater produced. Apply strict control over the amount of wastewater released from each households and commercial buildings.

36 Wastewater Planning : Recommendation Long term Plan Encourage sewage collection pipeline for all area to connect the central wastewater. Encourage the recycling water as irrigation, flushing toilet for new hotel, cooling tower etc. The recycling pipeline will be serviced in agricultural area in phase I in 10 year s time. The Municipality Authority has a plan to construct Wastewater Treatment Plant.

37 Solid Waste Management New Incinerator : Capacity 2 x 200 ton/day. Sorting Encourage Combined Heat and Power Generation from Municipal Solid Waste. (Produce energy 3 5 MW)

38 9. Eco Life Style Reduce the amount of waste by using less or eliminating waste at source Reuse purchase and use items that can be reused Recycle taking a product to make another product or remanufacturing into its original. Renew Renewal materials or energy from waste that cannot be reused or recycled.

39 Eco Life Style Example of Eco Events Car Free Day Clean Up the World Weekend Earth Week and Earth Day Bike Week (Bicycle Week) SAMUI Clean Beaches Week Recycling week (NRW) Water Saving Week SAMUI tree day and School tree day
