Flux de carbone à l'échelle du quartier

Ulrich Joseph Jacques Liman
2024
Conference paper

Abstract

Dans un contexte d’engagements politiques visant la neutralité carbone en 2050, la maîtrise des flux de carbone constitue un impératif opérationnel incontournable. Pour aborder ces enjeux à l’échelle du quartier, le Laboratoire d’architecture et technologies durables (LAST) a développé une démarche inédite intitulée LOCUS (acronyme de Low Carbon Urban Strategy). Cette dernière permet d’établir une vision exhaustive des flux de carbone à l’échelle du quartier et d’identifier les enjeux stratégiques jalonnant l’atteinte du zéro net d’ici 2050. Réalisée dans le cadre du projet de recherche « Maillages fertiles », son application sur le secteur emblématique Praille Acacias Vernets (PAV) à Genève permet d’illustrer certains aspects méthodologiques et de présenter quelques résultats préliminaires.

Sustainable design

Environmentally sustainable design (also called environmentally conscious design, eco-design, etc.) is the philosophy of designing physical objects, the built environment, and services to comply with the principles of ecological sustainability and also aimed at improving the health and comfort of occupants in a building. Sustainable design seeks to reduce negative impacts on the environment, the health and well-being of building occupants, thereby improving building performance.

Appropriate technology

Appropriate technology is a movement (and its manifestations) encompassing technological choice and application that is small-scale, affordable by locals, decentralized, labor-intensive, energy-efficient, environmentally sustainable, and locally autonomous. It was originally articulated as intermediate technology by the economist Ernst Friedrich "Fritz" Schumacher in his work Small Is Beautiful. Both Schumacher and many modern-day proponents of appropriate technology also emphasize the technology as people-centered.
