9. City energy system Building Energy consumption
- Geographical basis of the analysis: Identified 15 districts
– 200 Building Surveys collected by:
Info Points at the public Library and in the main entrances to the Municipality
Municipal Employees: questionnaire submitted to all the muncipal sector
Environmental Associations: distributed 80 questionnaires
Publication of the survays ON LINE
- Identified 17 types of buildings

10. City energy system Urban Mobility Needs
215 Mobility Surveys for citizens collected
SCENARIOS TESTED
1 - New 2 tram routes
2 - New Cycle Paths
The completion of cycle paths (total of 16 km)
The realization of "environmental" bike paths along the river Savio for cycling tourism (total of 87 km)
Eg. Results of the analysis of new cycle paths scenario: in 2030 this scenario reduces the use of the private car by 4%

of the combination of specific
“competitive”
projects, actions,
measures and targets

for the production of renewable energy;
2- promote sustainable mobility and intelligent transport systems (plans to allocate 27 million Euros for urban areas)
Eu direct funds

15. The InSmart Solution: Lessons Learnt and Key Innovations achieved
Multicriteria and multidisciplinary approach to energy planning
The approach is absolutely innovative for cities that are often forced to plan on short period due to few resources or restrictive legislation
-> InSmart is first of all a new way of working in an integrated manner starting within the municipality
InSmart thinks about municipalities as the Key actor of energy governance (regulator, energy consumer, provider of energy etc) and strengthens the role of the municipality in decisions processes
Active and effective participation of the stakeholders
The InSmart solution put together different actors that often feel competitors within the City
(Eg. the public service managers of waste, water, public illumination etc.)
Energy Planning becomes Urban Planning
InSmart allowed to define performance measures built starting from the specific needs of the urban structure of the city

16. The InSmart Solution: Dissemination and Future Uses
The InSmart Plan:
1 – Will be present to citizens in the Final Event in Cesena on 25 March 2017
2 – Will be formal approved by the City Council by the end of March 2017
3 – It served as the basis for the monitoring of the SEAP
4 – It will serve as the basis for the definition of the new SECAP
The InSmart Municipal working group leading by Energie per la città will continue to make the direction of the new projects/plans on energy planning
The InSmart Solution will be present to the Union of Municipalities of the Savio Valley
The GIS Energy Map will be insert within the municipal GIS System
