Scope

----#: . All: Suggest good scoping for the assessment. You may also consult people in Helsinki. You may also borrow ideas you have used in Homework4. This will be decided soon after Easter. --Jouni (talk) 21:04, 25 March 2015 (UTC) (type: truth; paradigms: science: comment)

Question

Intended use and users

A problem in the climate policy practices in the City of Helsinki is that there is not enough information about different costs and impacts of different climate change mitigation measures, especially in the long term. This is slowing down the decision-making process. The results of this course will be used at the City of Helsinki Environment Centre to assess the outcomes of different ways to reduce GHG emissions. The results will help in identifying the most favourable ways to cut GHG emissions.

Participants

----#: . In case of energy consumption, detached houses, industrial and health sector have the highest amount of energy use. Fist it would be good to find a better and more efficient ways of energy consumption for them. --Mohammad Shahidehnia (talk) 08:33, 9 April 2015 (UTC) (type: truth; paradigms: science: comment)

Stakeholders

Dependencies

Tasks given 15.4.2015 about Building stock in Helsinki:

Tables 1 and 2: Paula and Mohammad
Table 3: Sonja and Panayoitis
Tables 4 and 5: Anni, Mari, and Michael
Table 6: Aishat, Evans and Badejo
Tables 7-8: not done

TASKS FOR THE DARM COURSE PARTICIPANTS:

ALL GROUPS: Study Building model as it is closely connected to everything we do.
GROUP1 (Mari, Anni and Michael): Look at Building stock in Helsinki which is the format we are likely to get the data about Helsinki. Compare that with previous assessments Buildings in Basel and Building stock in Kuopio. Make a suggestion how to model buildings in Helsinki.
GROUP2 (Mohammad and Paula): Study Energy use of buildings and come up with a suggestion whether and how that variable can be used for the Helsinki case.
GROUP3 (Badejo, Evans and Aishat): Study Emission factors for burning processes and come up with a suggestion whether and how that variable can be used for the Helsinki case.
GROUP4 (Panayiotis): Study Climate change policies and health in Kuopio and expecially the table Direct inputs with DALY weights etc. Come up with a suggestion whether and how that variable can be used for the Helsinki case.

Analyses

Indices

The data will be classified according to these indices:

Building: Residential, Public, Industrial, Other. For separating different use purposes of buildings.
Constructed: Years of construction of the buildings in the format 1990-1999, 2000-2009, 2010-2013.
Heating: District, Electricity, Geothermal, Oil, Wood,

The results of each ovariable will be measuring these things:

buildings: total floor area in m².
