Realities and prospects of development of urban systems in Lviv
Abstract
The SPARCS project supports cities to become energy-positive and climate-neutral communities. Lviv is one of the stakeholders of the project and fulfills its obligations under the grant agreement for the implementation of a comprehensive energy-independent and climate-neutral area in the urban system.
Purpose. Demonstration of innovative solutions in the areas of planning, pilot implementation and scaling of "smart" and integrated energy systems that turn cities into steel, human-centered and environmentally sustainable ecosystems that provide high living standards for residents.
Methods. Statistical, comparative, cartographic and systems analysis.
Results. An analysis of foreign and Ukrainian sources on the concept of energy-independent areas has been made, which gives an opportunity to offer its definition of the Concept of Energy-Positive Area and its implementation area. The main strategic directions are spatial development, energy, mobility and waste management. In the framework of the SPARCS project, a large number of new measures in the field of climate neutrality were implemented in Lviv. Several global strategic documents have been launched: Lviv Green City Action Plan, Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan, Integrated Development Concept, Implementation Plan, which includes 9 activities to create conditions for the development of energy-positive areas and further transformation of Lviv into a climate-neutral city
Conclusions. Having identified the main tasks of the city's strategic transformation in the medium term, in the short term in Lviv it is necessary to ensure the formation of conditions for the development of sustainable energy-positive and climate-neutral communities in general and energy-positive areas as innovative tools for climate-neutral status.
