Implementation Plan outlines actions to meet GM’s 48% carbon target reduction by 2020
`Business as Usual’ not enough for 2050
Significantly scale up our energy efficiency activities and smart energy infrastructure

4. Current GM Energy Use Wide variation in energy use across GM districts
Homes in GM account for 37% of total energy demand
77% of domestic demand is heating and hot water
5% of postcodes in GM ‘off-gas’
Some districts such as Trafford, Stockport and Tameside have proportionally higher levels of inefficient housing

5. GM Low Carbon Potential
The majority of GM renewable generation is from Landfill, sewage and AD gas (74%).
Wide variation in installed small scale renewables (<5MW) across districts
140MW of installed renewable electricity capacity.
29MW of installed renewable heat capacity
Technical potential for c9% of elec demand from renewable energy
Technical potential for c68% of heat demand from renewable energy

6. GM Energy Generation Potential
Significant technical potential in GM for future energy demand met by:
Heat networks
Solar technologies (heat and power)
Heat pumps
Biofuel
Other technologies (wind, hydro, geothermal) could have role but lesser technical potential in GM.
Limitations to role of renewable electricity in decarbonisation within GM particularly onshore wind in current policy environment
Important to recognise economic barriers to realising technical potential
Increasing decentralised generation will create challenges for networks
Number of potential game changers including hydrogen and storage but significant uncertainty

7. CCLES Implementation Plan Actions (1)
Delivery of a large-scale demonstrator of smart heat systems within Greater Manchester (M3) e.g. research, piloting and demonstration of technologies or the integration or management of smart system and heat technologies
Delivery of a programme of identified local energy efficient heat networks and plan for their longer term integration (M7) e.g. through the innovative integration of technologies with/within proposed heat networks funded through the Low Carbon Investment Fund
Development of alternatives to existing energy systems, including hydrogen and other storage initiatives (M12) e.g. through demonstration of new low carbon technologies and their integration into the existing energy system.
Work with commercial building owners and major occupiers to increase commercial building retrofit (M14) e.g. through improving transparency of real time energy performance
Identification and delivery of mechanisms to improve poorly performing building stock with low carbon development, particularly where this can also address ill health, poverty and productivity challenges (M16) e.g. innovative design and delivery of programmes to enhance the energy efficiency and resilience on buildings

8. CCLES Implementation Plan Actions (2)
Support businesses, organisations and people to be more energy efficient…..by developing complimentary services with the existing offer (M22) e.g. support services and advice to organisations and business on smart energy innovation and/or energy efficiency which provide additionality to existing programmes
Exploitation and promotion of the cutting edge research developed by our universities, harnessing the innovations that arise from it, including implementing eco-innovation projects (E24), e.g. through laboratory scale testing of new technologies to support product testing and innovation
Deliver new infrastructure to cut emissions (M28) e.g. piloting and demonstration of innovation to energy distribution networks
Stimulate the uptake of Ultra Low Emission Vehicles (ULEV) (M30) e.g. through enhancing demonstration or innovation to GMs EV charging infrastructure or innovation in technology or delivery mechanisms
Demonstrate the potential of alternative fuel transport (M31) and reducing emissions from heavy goods vehicles (M33) e.g. by demonstrating new technology or delivery systems which will lead to reduced carbon and other emission to support improved air quality
