Assessment Procedure European Union | European Regional Development Fund Blekingearkivet Detailed description Detailed information on the practice Ronneby's second largest solar power plant of 35,000 kWh was assembled at the end of 2014 at Blekingearkiv's roof in Bräkne-Hoby, Sweden. The solar cells produce electricity to the archives and to the adjacent preschool Tingsgården. The archives in Bräkne-Hoby gather three functions – the Blekinge archives, the SVAR archives and the municipal archives. The renovation and extension of the archive began spring 2014. The building project was completed in the summer of 2015. The existing building has been renovated and has received an addition. The actual archive now has a newly built area of 1,000 m2 in two levels. The old archive building that has been renovated has an area of 600 m2. The old part is used for staff spaces and the new one houses the archive material. There is room for 10,000 meters of shelves space for material archival! Ronneby Municipality chose to invest in solar cells, when their buildings need to be able to produce their own electricity. In this case, the solar cells are located on the roof of the newly built archive building. The roof surface is 500 m2. The building is filled with archives, which means that electricity is needed during the summer to cool the building. In order to keep the records in the archive properly, it must not be too hot in the building. Even the older building with research rooms, conference rooms and offices is supplied with electricity from the archive. If the produced electricity is not used by the archives, it also supplies the pre- school, which is adjacent to the archive. Since the building has no storage facilities for electricity, surpluses are sometimes sold to the grid. During the winter, electricity is purchased. The roof of Blekingearkivet is a slab with slight slope. To optimize power generation, the solar cells are mounted on inclined positions. The advantage of such positioning is that it is a simple installation and they are easy to move if you need to access any part of the roof. European Union | European Regional Development Fund The new building is energy efficient and has heat recovery in ventilation. The buildings are heated with biofuel-based district heating from a small-scale central heating plant in Bräkne-Hoby. The image shows the new archive building with solar cells on the roof. In the background you can see the old archive building and the adjacent preschool. Picture: Ronneby municipality. The solar installation cost 52 000 Euro to build. 35% of the cost was financed through government grants, ie 18 000 Euro. Projecting was a small part of the Resources needed overall planning of the new archive building. It has not needed any resources for the operation of the installation. Timescale (start/end date) September 2014 – November 2014 Evidence of success (results The solar cell plant produces 35 MWh per year. The plant shows a good result achieved) and requires no maintenance. The solar cell plant is a good example of how solar energy can be produced for self-consumption and also contribute to electricity production for adjacent Potential for learning or transfer buildings. Since the archive has a cooling need during the summer, much of the electricity produced can be used directly in the business. Blekingearkivet is also a good architectural example where the solar cells fit well into the building. Contact details Name William Lavesson Organisation Ronneby kommun Email [email protected] .

  • Rapid Scenario Planning’ to Support a Regional Sustainability Transformation Vision: a Case Study from Blekinge, Sweden
    sustainability Article ‘Rapid Scenario Planning’ to Support a Regional Sustainability Transformation Vision: A Case Study from Blekinge, Sweden Giles Thomson *, Henrik Ny , Varvara Nikulina , Sven Borén, James Ayers and Jayne Bryant Department of Strategic Sustainable Development, Blekinge Institute of Technology (BTH), 371 79 Karlskrona, Sweden; [email protected] (H.N.); [email protected] (V.N.); [email protected] (S.B.); [email protected] (J.A.); [email protected] (J.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 10 July 2020; Accepted: 20 August 2020; Published: 26 August 2020 Abstract: This paper presents a case study of a transdisciplinary scenario planning workshop that was designed to link global challenges to local governance. The workshop was held to improve stakeholder integration and explore scenarios for a regional planning project (to 2050) in Blekinge, Sweden. Scenario planning and transdisciplinary practices are often disregarded by practitioners due to the perception of onerous resource requirements, however, this paper describes a ‘rapid scenario planning’ process that was designed to be agile and time-efficient, requiring the 43 participants from 13 stakeholder organizations to gather only for one day. The process was designed to create an environment whereby stakeholders could learn from, and with, each other and use their expert knowledge to inform the scenario process. The Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD) was used to structure and focus the scenario planning exercise and its subsequent recommendations. The process was evaluated through a workshop participant survey and post-workshop evaluative interview with the regional government project manager to indicate the effectiveness of the approach.

  • Update 2020-12-02 Guidelines to Reduce the Risk of Infection In
    Update 2020-12-02 Guidelines to reduce the risk of infection in schools & preschools The Public Health Agency has now stated that even symptom free children should stay home from preschool and school if anyone in the household has confirmed covid-19. Ronneby municipality has therefore updated point 5 of the guidelines for school & preschool. The other points remain unchanged. The number of confirmed cases of covid-19 is dramatically increasing in Sweden and in Ronneby which now has more than 270 confirmed cases. Since the 11th of November 2020, strengthened advice on covid-19 applies to reduce the spread of infection in Blekinge. A reminder is therefore required for what guidelines apply to the primary- and secondary schools of Ronneby municipality. In Ronneby municipality's preschools and schools we continue to follow the guidelines and recommendations of the Swedish Public Health Agency and Region Blekinge. 1. Healthy children and students are welcome to school & preschool Generally, students who are healthy should go to school and children who are healthy can go to pre- school. This also means that Ronneby municipality will send home or call on guardians to pick up children or students if they are deemed to be ill when dropped off at preschool or school. Read more about what applies to return after illness in paragraph 5. 2. Reduce the risk of infection To reduce the risk of infection, children, students and staff should be alert to symptoms that may occur with covid-19. This applies to both mild symptoms such as a sore throat, a runny nose, nausea and headache, but also other symptoms such as muscle and joint pain, fever, cough and difficulty in breathing.

  • Government Communication 2011/12:56 a Coordinated Long-Term Strategy for Roma Skr
    Government communication 2011/12:56 A coordinated long-term strategy for Roma Skr. inclusion 2012–2032 2011/12:56 The Government hereby submits this communication to the Riksdag. Stockholm, 16 February 2012 Fredrik Reinfeldt Erik Ullenhag (Ministry of Employment) Key contents of the communication This communication presents a coordinated and long-term strategy for Roma inclusion for the period 2012–2032. The strategy includes investment in development work from 2012–2015, particularly in the areas of education and employment, for which the Government has earmarked funding (Govt. Bill. 2011/12:1, Report 2011/12:KU1, Riksdag Communication 2011/12:62). The twenty-year strategy forms part of the minority policy strategy (prop. 2008/09:158) and is to be regarded as a strengthening of this minority policy (Govt. Bill 1998/99:143). The target group is above all those Roma who are living in social and economic exclusion and are subjected to discrimination. The whole implementation of the strategy should be characterised by Roma participation and Roma influence, focusing on enhancing and continuously monitoring Roma access to human rights at the local, regional and national level. The overall goal of the twenty-year strategy is for a Roma who turns 20 years old in 2032 to have the same opportunities in life as a non-Roma. The rights of Roma who are then twenty should be safeguarded within regular structures and areas of activity to the same extent as are the rights for twenty-year-olds in the rest of the population. This communication broadly follows proposals from the Delegation for Roma Issues in its report ‘Roma rights — a strategy for Roma in Sweden’ (SOU 2010:55), and is therefore also based on various rights laid down in international agreements on human rights, i.e.

    Project title Attractive Hardwoods - Best practice in tourism development, marketing and sustainable management of Attractive Hardwoods Natural landscapes offer us their beauty and richness. How can special areas such as forest complexes, protected landscape areas of Natura 2000 be employed to create a sustainable and trending offer in order to bring more people closer to the nature and boost the cross-border in- and off-season ecotourism in the South Baltic Region? The Attractive Hardwoods project gathers partners from Lithuania, Poland and Sweden representing organisations from different sectors authorities, organizations, entrepreneurs, private companies and tourist operators and different fields: forestry, nature conservation, tourism. It quests for solutions for developing the hardwoods ecotourism and increasing business opportunities through joint marketing actions, development of hardwood pilot areas, customized services and products. The cross- border cooperation plays the key role as an effective tool in facing shared challenges and promoting best practices, strengthening the organisations and creating international bonds. “Attractive Hardwoods” follows up on results of the 'Hardwoods are good' project (Interreg South Baltic 2007-2013). The preparatory work for the project was assisted by the EUSBSR Seed Money Facility. Attractive Hardwoods is a flagship project under the EU Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region, which means it demonstrates the progress of the Strategy and may serve as an inspiration for desired actions in a given
