可持续框架下的城市低碳社区

Low carbon community research under sustainability context

城市碳排放引发的气候问题日益严峻。作为低碳城市的重要组成单元和载体,低碳社区的规划建设逐渐成为研究重点。基于低碳社区的概念和内涵,提出了可持续框架下低碳社区的规划理念,引导低碳社区在经济、社会、环境协同发展的基础上实现碳减排目标。通过分析中外城市低碳社区的实践经验,将低碳社区规划总结为创新型规划、资源型规划和学习型规划三种模式,提出可持续框架下的低碳社区规划策略:制定可持续的发展目标及规划;政府主导与社区共建相结合;多尺度规划和多举措建设相匹配。建议加强对既有社区的低碳改造研究;完善低碳社区建设的评价标准与考核机制;加强对低碳社区运行的内在机制研究。对可持续框架下低碳社区的发展理念和规划策略研究,探索城市尺度可持续发展途径,实现低碳城市转型具有重要意义。

Climate problems caused by urban carbon emissions have become increasingly serious. As the building blocks of low carbon cities, the importance of low carbon communities is widely recognized, and the strategy of its planning and construction has become a research hotspot. Based on the concept and connotation of low carbon communities, this study proposed a planning concept for low carbon communities within the framework of sustainable development, so as to achieve the reduction of carbon emission on the basis of coordinated economic, social and environmental development. After analyzing the experiences of developing low carbon communities in domestic and foreign cities, the type of low carbon community planning is classed into three models in this study：innovative planning, resource-based planning, and learning-based planning. In addition, the following planning strategies for low carbon communities have been formulated within the framework of sustainable development：establish goals and plans for sustainable development, integrate the effort of government and communities in the construction of low carbon communities, and match multi-dimensional planning with comprehensive construction strategies. Furthermore, this study has provided the following recommendations for future research on low carbon communities：strengthen the research on the transformation of existing communities into low carbon communities, improve the criteria and assessment system used to evaluate the construction of low carbon communities, and to promote the research on the internal mechanisms underlying the operation of low carbon communities. The study on the concept and planning strategy of low carbon communities within the framework of sustainable development is of practical significance to explore the path of sustainable urban development and to transform current cities into low carbon cities.
