June 2013 Project group: UPM42013-9 Supervisor: Birgitte Hoffmann Copies: 2 Pages: 99 pages including appendix Appendices: Author: ______________________________ Meherun Nahar ii An analysis of institutional capacity for climate change adaptation in the Copenhagen area Abstract The report is based on the question ´How do different municipalities in HOFOR develop their own plan to implement climate change adaptation?´ Therefore focus will be on to find out what approaches that municipalities follow for climate change adaptation and how they relate these approaches with national adaptation strategy. Moreover the project will identify how municipalities work with other municipalities and how they divide their tasks among them regarding climate change adaptation. Besides, the project will identify how different municipalities cooperate with HOFOR and finally it will investigate how different municipalities engage people and other stakeholders in climate change adaptation. The report is based on multiple case studies where each municipality working with HOFOR is an individual case. The report is an exploratory one. The analysis is based on the interviews of representative persons from different municipalities, HOFOR, Avedøre Wastewater and an water expert, municipality plans and strategies and theories of sustainable urban water management, community resilience and social assessment, institutional theory and governance, power and collaborative planning.

  • CMP Joins Application to the EU for Significant Funding for CO2 Capture Project on Amager Bakke, Which Can Contribute to Making Copenhagen CO2 Neutral by 2025
    Oct 22, 2020 13:00 CEST CMP joins application to the EU for significant funding for CO2 capture project on Amager Bakke, which can contribute to making Copenhagen CO2 neutral by 2025 A facility for the capture of CO2 will reduce emissions from the Amager Resource Center (ARC) by 500,000 tonnes of CO2 annually and can thus significantly contribute to the City of Copenhagen’s goal of becoming the world’s first capital city in the world to become carbon-neutral. Copenhagen Malmö Port (CMP) will become a central party in storing and distributing the captured CO2 to ships that sail the CO2 to storage in old oil fields in the North Sea. The project will be the first of its kind in Denmark and will contribute not only to the City of Copenhagen’s goal of becoming the first carbon-neutral capital in the world by 2025, but also to the national goal of reducing Denmark’s emissions of CO2 70 percent by the year 2030. Specifically, an annual reduction of 500,000 tonnes CO2 will correspond to approx. one percent of Denmark’s total emissions. As one of the first and crucial steps in the project, at the end of October ARC in collaboration with CMP will submit an application to the climate action EU Innovation Fund to receive funding for both the establishment of the facility, which is scheduled for completion in 2025, and its operations. The amount of financial support being applied for is in the range of DKK 0.5-1 billion, which will finance up to 60 percent of the costs of the establishment of the facility and its operations for the first ten years.
