ESCO-Contracting in Danish Municipalities
Energies 2013, 6, 2407-2427; doi:10.3390/en6052407 OPEN ACCESS energies ISSN 1996-1073 www.mdpi.com/journal/energies Article Greening Public Buildings: ESCO-Contracting in Danish Municipalities Jesper Ole Jensen 1,*, Susanne Balslev Nielsen 2 and Jesper Rohr Hansen 1 1 Department of Town, Housing and Property, Danish Building Research Institute, A.C.Meyers Vænge 15, Copenhagen DK-2450, Denmark; E-Mail: [email protected] 2 Department of Management Engineering, Technical University of Denmark, Bygning 424, Kongens Lyngby DK-2800, Denmark; E-Mail: [email protected] (S.B.N.) * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +45-9940-2358. Received: 27 February 2013; in revised form: 11 April 2013 / Accepted: 24 April 2013 / Published: 6 May 2013 Abstract: This paper presents current research on Danish municipalities’ use of Energy Service Companies (ESCO) as a way to improve the standard of public buildings and to increase energy efficiency. In recent years more and more municipalities have used ESCO-contracts to retrofit existing public buildings, and to make them more energy efficient. At the moment 30 municipalities (of the 98 municipalities in Denmark) are involved in, or preparing, ESCO contracts. Nevertheless, ESCO-contracting still faces many challenges on the Danish market, as there is a widespread skepticism towards the concept amongst many stakeholders. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the various experience gained so far by municipalities use of ESCO-contracting, the different approached to ESCO-contracting being used in practice, as well as the different viewpoints drivers and barriers behind the development. -

Though merely whetting our appetites, this taster has confi rmed Denmark’s infl uential contribution to our continent’s cultural wealth. Happily, Denmark’s contribution to the European Union is far more extensive and will, undoubtedly, be in the spotlight throughout the fi rst half of 2012! A modern state, where European and international sea routes converge, Denmark has frequently drawn on its talents and fl ourishing economy to make its own, distinctive mark. It is in tune with the priorities for 2020: competitiveness, social inclusion and the need for ecologically sustainable change. -

Transdisciplinary Journal of Cultural Participation, vol. 1, no. 1, 2014. ISSN 2246-3755 Introduction In the fall of 2013, a group of homeless people occupied a central site in the Danish town of Aarhus. Having chosen a site just next to Godsbanen (“the old freight train station”), which opened in March 2012 as a new main center for cultural production in Aarhus, the occupation made quite a stir among local politicians, local media, and citizens. Furthermore, as an alderman from the town council turned in the occupants to the police, this triggered a wide-reaching public debate on topics from homelessness to the cultural policy of Aarhus. Over the period from December to 2013 to March 2014, which we will be focusing on in this article, the case of the homeless metamorphosed further, as the above-mentioned alderman altered his conviction, new groups joined the group of homeless, and new action was taken by the city’s body of public administration. -
View of Where There Are Fillings Heights As Both Maps Are Based on the Field Survey and Fill Thickness
The Journal of Transdisciplinary Environmental Studies vol. 12, no. 2, 2013 Public Archives and other Sources for Surveying of Dumpsites and Polluting Enterprises before 1950 Anne-Sofie Fleischer Michaelsen,Department of Environmental, Social and Spatial Change, Roskilde University, Denmark E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: In Denmark, the local environmental authorities have had an obligation to survey areas for soil contamination since the early 1980s. Through the years, detecting and locating old dumpsites and gathering historical information on them have been very dependent on old aerial photographs. As a result, the environmental authorities only have little knowledge of dumpsites operating before the mid-1950s. This study describes the utility of various historical sources for surveying of old dumpsites in the former Ballerup-Maaløv Municipality near Copenhagen. The minute books of the Council and the Health Commission in the municipality were used. In order to locate two dumpsites mentioned in the minute books and gather information on them, the fol- lowing additional sources were used: Old census papers, index cards from tax assessments of real property, income tax returns, writings from local history societies on the former villages, recorded memories told by senior citizens and jubilee publications from homeowners’ associations together with old cadastral maps, old topographical maps, and old aerial photographs plus a comparison of terrain heights in a topographical military map from 1900 and the Danish Elevation Model from 2005-2007. The minute books of the Council and the Health Commission contain information on 31 dumpsites and 15 possible dumpsites of very different characteristics. Only a few of the dumpsites were already known by the local environmental authorities. -
