Uploaded on Oct 25, 2007 This case study features interviews with Whistler’s municipal decision makers about the decision making process used to evaluate a new Natural Gas pipeline and the long-term energy needs of the community using the Natural Step Framework, and working with Terasen Gas to evaluate options. Community consultation, co-operation, and partnerships resulted in a successful process. The 2010 Olympics allowed the pipeline to be built at the same time as the road from Vancouver to Whistler. Renewable energy and natural gas provided a blended solution with optimal capital costs, and a flexible platform. Other subjects include Return on Investment (ROI), TNS System Conditions, Environmental Costs, and Technology Innovations. http://www.naturalstep.ca

About SCD Hub

  • SCD Hub’s mission is to serve as a hub for sustainable community development in order to provide trustworthy development & training tools to facilitate project planning, design & execution.

  • SCD Hub serves a curated collection information supporting best practices in sustainable community development, at this time we are working closely with the new UNM Peace Engineering program improve the quality of our database and improve how it serves the short, medium and long term planning goals of projects.

  • Our current work emphasizes the life cycle of water. The list of outcomes is fine for a start. Clearly defined project goals and objectives are a crucial element for planning the activities and inputs required to launch and sustain a project. -Bernard Amadei, Ph.D., NAE

Approach

SCD Hub’s pioneering work with UNM Peace Engineering program’s technical solutions library needs your support! We are working to document solutions for safe, affordable, accessible, and appropriate relationship with the lifecycle of water - from source to distribution, to disposal. Solid waste management lifecycle is also being researched in our library curation process.
