Climate Plan Air Energy Territorial: public consultation
The community of communes of Haut-Limousin en Marche is organising an online public consultation from 25 November 2020 to 25 January 2021 to gather opinions on the draft Territorial Climate Air Energy Plan (PCAET).
Background
A major instrument of ecological transition, the Climate Air Energy Territorial Plan (PCAET) is a tool for coordinating energy and economic policies and also for improving the quality of life.
The PCAET sets out an operational roadmap for adapting the territory to climate change in order to achieve quantified and measurable objectives, particularly in terms of reducing CO2, increasing the production of renewable energies and restoring air quality. It thus provides a local response to the global challenges of climate change.
In accordance with the law on energy transition, (order number 2016-1060 of August 3, 2016) the community of communes of Haut-Limousin en Marche approved by deliberation of November 25, 2019 its draft Climate Air Energy Territorial Plan (PCAET) incorporating the following issues:
On the basis of the issues identified by a territorial diagnosis on :
- an estimate of greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions and their reduction potential ;
- an estimate of net carbon dioxide sequestration, a process corresponding to carbon dioxide storage ;
- an analysis of the final energy consumption of the territory and its reduction potential ;
- a presentation of the electricity, gas and heat transmission and distribution networks;
- a state of the production of renewable energies in the territory and their development potential;
- an analysis of the vulnerability of the territory to the effects of climate change.
a territorial strategy has been drawn up, setting measurable ambitions for the territory by 2030 in terms of :
- reduction of greenhouse gas emissions ;
- carbon storage ;
- control of final energy consumption ;
- production, consumption and delivery of renewable energy ;
- reduction of air pollutant emissions;
- evolution of energy networks ;
- adaptation to climate change.
The action plan deployed by the community of municipalities to achieve the objectives set, includes about twenty actions in the different fields of intervention of the community of municipalities and mobilizing actors and partners in the territory. All areas of daily life are concerned: mobility, housing, waste, town planning, agricultural and industrial activities.
Electronic public consultation
After having brought together numerous actors from the territory during 2018 and 2019 to co-construct this action programme and launch a territorial mobilisation, the community of communes of Haut-Limousin en Marche is organising this electronic public consultation to gather opinions on the draft PCAET.
Pursuant to article L123-19 of the Environment Code, the draft PCAET is made available in electronic form for public consultation by electronic means. The competent authority to take the decision to approve the Climate Plan is the communauté de communes du Haut-Limousin en Marche.
In accordance with Articles L122-4 and R122-7 of the French Environmental Code, the Climate Plan has been submitted to an environmental assessment; it is likely to have a significant impact on the environment. The opinion of the environmental authority will be available for consultation according to the same terms and conditions as the other constituent elements of the draft Climate Plan.
At the end of the public participation, a summary of the comments and proposals will be drafted and put online, in addition to the above-mentioned documents. The draft Climate Plan may possibly be modified to take into account the comments and opinions of the public. It will be submitted for approval to the Community Council of the Haut-Limousin en Marche community of municipalities.
