Denmark model-a low carbon community
Denmark low carbon urban development is the typical representative of low carbon community. Low carbon community mainly from global climate change impacts and reduce carbon emissions target of national energy policy and try to give play to the local government of the application of a pioneering role in energy saving, low carbon energy saving with mostly do demonstration projects for the pilot community energy-saving practice. Low carbon community generally comply with ten of the principles: zero carbon, zero waste, sustainable transportation, sustainability and local materials, local food, water low consumption, animals and plants protection, cultural heritage protection, fair trade and happy and healthy way of life. Governments around the world are lean strength to deal with oil shortage and the earth warming crisis, a stream of building "an eco-city" tide is up, and Denmark's low carbon community is one of the earliest of the construction of ecological community. Denmark Beder of solar Wind Community (Sun and Wind Community) is spontaneously organized by the residents of the construction of the public housing Community (Cohousing Community), completed in 1980, a total of 30 families. Because the idea of community construction from residents not the developers, therefore, the residents to be spontaneous and discuss took counsel, from beginning to end in the community planning and design, construction and the entire process in the design scheme for examination and approval and fundraising, etc in the process also throughout their efforts, in the concrete construction and the maintenance and daily management is spontaneously organized by the residents, and relevant professional personnel, the government department and the construction group to discuss together. Residents in the master of decoration and the community by residents of afforesting &you, residents of participation in the long-term community full of human feelings. The community is the biggest characteristic of the public housing design and the use of renewable energy. Public housing is to point to to save space, energy, resources and establish Shared gym, office, car, laundry and the private residence of the coffee shop or an apartment. The name of the community "solar wind" will set off the community to the sun, wind as the main energy form of characteristics, emphasize try to use of renewable energy and new energy, reduce the energy consumption and saving energy, using active solar energy system. The community of about 600 square meters of solar panels, and the sun set on the main board with house and the house public. Public use room of the underground have two capacity of 75 cubic meters of hot box together, the roof of the house public use is 45 degrees, the region is the best Angle collect solar energy. The heated liquid through the underground pipeline to take hot box, then heat again with hot water and the form of radiant heat through underground pipeline into residential buildings. The solar energy to meet the energy requirements of the community 30%. Residents are about 2 km from the community on the hill set 22 meters high wind tower for wind power, wind power account for over of the total energy consumption community of around 10%. In the basement of the house public use is also equipped with a solid waste (mainly wood) incinerators, in outdoor temperature below the 23 degrees Fahrenheit when residents on heating. In a community garden area of strengthening the material circulation, increase the natural landscape of the producer, and to reduce dependence on external resources, reduce transportation energy consumption. This model in energy use process also stressed saving energy and reducing consumption, maximum limit reduces greenhouse gas emissions and keep the community the beautiful environment.
