ITI SORIA Castilla La Mancha Soria, May 22 & 23, 2018 ESPON EVENTS: FIGHTING POPULATION DECLINE IN RURAL AREAS Alejandro Alonso Núñez General Director of Coordination and Planning Government of Castilla-La Mancha PowerPoint template 16:9 PREAMBLE Castilla-La Mancha is part of the Spanish Forum of Regions with Demographic Challenges (FREDD) consisting of the Autonomous Communities of Galicia, Principado de Asturias, La Rioja, Aragón and Castilla y León. Combined, they gather 4,463 municipalities (55% of Spain’s municipalities) and more than half of Spain’s territory with 52.8% of its surface. However, they only account for 21% of the Spanish population. We seek a Common Position leading to the debate on and approval of the European Union’s upcoming Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) for the next programming period that includes: A precise definition of the concept ‘serious and permanent demographic disadvantages.’ The need for a European strategy on demographic change that coordinates all of the Union’s instruments and funds. Post-2020 Cohesion Policy must confront new challenges faced by the EU. These include demographic challenge, as pointed out by the European Parliament and the Committee of the Regions. Cohesion Policy must remain a priority in funds and efforts. Funding for other priorities cannot call into question the EU Cohesion funds. It is essential to – at least - maintain funding at its current level and if possible to increase it so as not to jeopardize the progress of regional and local development during the next programming period. Cohesion Policy, its funding and the modulation of its co-funding criteria cannot be based on a single indicator - GDP per capita. We propose the following criteria: demographic change (i.e. intense and continuous demographic loss), population density and sustained decline, aging, emigration of young and adult population and the ensuing fall in birth rates or territorial dispersion. Cohesion Policy should provide specific instruments to those areas most affected by demographic challenges. During the 2014-2020 programming period, the Regional Government has developed a strategy aimed to fight population decline, which I will now explain to you. 3 PowerPoint template 16:9 5/24/2018 MAP OF THE SOUTH-SOUTHERN EUROPEAN AREA– SESPA (Southern Europe Sparsely Populated Area) 4 PowerPoint template 16:9 5/24/2018 1 Introduction: an ITI for Castilla-La Mancha. 5 PowerPoint template 16:9 5/24/2018 The GOVERNMENT OF CASTILLA-LA MANCHA has launched an Integrated 1 Territorial Investment Plan (ITI). It aims to encourage new activities in especially depressed areas due to problems of population and socioeconomic decline. Keys to The ITI Plan is a powerful tool aimed to implement strategies in an integrated 2 way and in a specific territory. The ITI Plan makes it possible to combine defining investments from European Funds in Castilla-La Mancha: EAFRD, ERDF and Castilla-La ESF.

In the ITI area 47.112 of Guadalajara and Cuenca, population density 13,8% ITI Cuenca accounts for around the threshold of 5 inhabitants/km2. In the case of the Talavera de la Reina’s ITI area, population density reaches a higher value than the regional average, but ITI Talavera de la Reina 74.841 when excluding the city of Talavera, population 21,9% density amounts to 14 inhabitants/km2. Regarding population volume, the ITI area of Talavera de la Reina stands out with more than 137.958 40% of the population within the entire regional ITI Albacete 40,4% ITI. This leading position is a consequence of ITI Ciudad Real the location of the Talavera urban nucleus (being the second city under the regional urban 42.967 hierarchy).

  • Audax Purchases New Photovoltaic Projects
    AUDAX PURCHASES NEW PHOTOVOLTAIC PROJECTS The company acquires two 10MWp photovoltaic projects in the province of Toledo Audax Renovables (ADX.MC), the energy group that integrates the businesses of generation and supplying of 100% renewable electricity and gas, continues its strategy of tirelessly promoting its renewable energy generation projects. The company has acquired two photovoltaic projects in the towns of Polán and Los Navalmorales, both located in the province of Toledo, of 5MWp each. The aforementioned projects have been acquired from Energy Pool, the same counterpart that developed the Group's different photovoltaic projects in the provinces of Guadalajara and Toledo that are currently under construction. Specifically, these are the projects called Los Arenales, in the town of Polán, of 5MWp, and El Toconal, in the town of Los Navalmorales, also of 5MWp, and the latter can be expanded by up to an additional 10%. Both projects will have the whole installation of approximately 30,000 solar panels, which will produce 16 GWh per year of energy, which is equivalent to the annual consumption of more than 4,600 households. The Group continues to promote its commitment to renewable energy generation facilities, being these the continuation of successive others that, today, are being built in the same province of Toledo and Guadalajara. Audax Renovables has been committed for years to the development of renewable energies to achieve a sustainable energy transition, in accordance with the trend that the European Union is promoting, and to continue generating quality both employment and growth. Just a few weeks ago, work began on many other photovoltaic projects in the provinces of Guadalajara, Toledo and Huelva.

  • Impacts of the New High Speed Rail Services on Small Tourist Cities: the Case of Toledo (Spain)
    The Sustainable City V 465 Impacts of the new high speed rail services on small tourist cities: the case of Toledo (Spain) B. Guirao & F. Soler Department of Transportation, Technical University of Madrid, Spain Abstract Toledo is a medium size town of 78.000 inhabitants, located in central Spain, 70 km south of Madrid, and constitutes the capital of the province of Toledo and of the autonomous community of Castille-La Mancha. It was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1986 for its extensive cultural and monumental heritage as one of the former capitals of the Spanish Empire and place of coexistence of Christian, Jewish and Moorish cultures. This paper presents and analyses the results of a study on the impact of the new high-speed rail on Toledo local and interurban mobility. The location of the station, at the edge of the city, conditions the urban mobility of the users (tourists and commuters to Madrid) and demands a good integration of the various modes of transportation. The research includes a survey of train users, with more than 5000 valid questionnaires collected during the week between 22nd and 28th October 2007. Keywords: high speed rail line, interurban mobility, mobility survey, transportation planning. 1 Introduction Up to now, the main target of new high-speed lines has been connecting two big population areas which size justifies the public investment required for its construction. But also, small and medium size cities are generally included in interior points of these lines. After more than fifteen years of experience, Spanish high-speed network is centered in Madrid and covers more than 1500 km.
