On April 2nd,at the 14th International Conference on Green and Energy-Efficient Building& New Technologies and Products Expo——

Jingzhou City ofHubei Province was officially honored as “China-France Ecological Demonstration City” by Chinese Society for Urban Studies and French Building Science TechnologyCenter (CSTB)!

China (Jingzhou)-FranceEcological City Project Demonstration Site is located here!

China (Jingzhou)-FranceEcological City Project Demonstration Site is located within Ji’nan Eco-cultureTourism Area with a planning area of around 7.7 square kilometers.

Ji’nan Eco-culture Tourism Area is 1.5 km away from Jingzhou ancient city.There are more than ten cultural relics of Chu State, covering an area of more than10 square kilometers, including Ji’nan Ancient City Relics, Ying City Relics, and Yutai Mountain Relics.

The planning formulation of China (Jingzhou)-France Ecological City projects includes six aspects, namely ecological indicator system, ecological environment system, green building special project, green transportation special project, spaceusage planning, and the establishment of sustainable capability.

This project introduces French advanced technologies to explore integration development methods involving space, transportation, resource, and environment with green ecology idea by analyzing ecological conditions, resource environment features,and the advantages of both Chinese and French policies to propose an available ecological city construction indicator system which is suitable for the development characteristics of Jingzhou. It will finally be built as a high-standard green ecological demonstration area with ecological feature orientation and good environment which will be good for living and business.

What will be doneby “China-France Ecological DemonstrationCity”? How it will change your hometown? Chinese Society for Urban Studies gives you authentic interpretation!


The green transformation of old urban area——

The urbanization rate of France reached 73% in 1975. For decades, its city construction has transferred from increment to stock and thus, it has accumulated rich experience in terms of old city transformation.

Slow walk city: focus on walk experience;

Green transportation:bicycle, and public transportation;

Infrastructure improvementand transformation: water resource recycling, and park construction;

Increase businessopportunity: grass-root business.  

                                                                                                              


Case: Pressler Robinson,the most successful city community development project in recent 25 years by EuropeanBuilding Foundation

River improvementand environment comprehensive treatment——

France has made remarkableachievements in terms of environment comprehensive treatment. Veolia, the largestenvironment group in the world, is a French company and the second largest one,Suez Environment Group, is a French company as well. Chinese traditional water treatmentattaches more importance to water sewage disposal. However, the later resource utilizationdoes not go far enough.

                                                                                                     

                                French Water Environment Comprehensive Treatment Case

Construction of EcologicalTown, and Beautiful Village——

China and France have little difference in the level of metropolitan construction but France farsurpasses China in terms of the construction of small-medium cities, towns, and villages. In particular, France clearly has a lot to teach about experience in fields such as rural environmental treatment, building transformation, and ecological agriculture.

Energy conservationtrans formation of rural buildings can solve the contradiction between decentralized rural residential areas and infrastructure, but also lower the emission of carbonand optimize rural environment.

This is not the firsttime for Jingzhou to gain international popularity.

On March 21st,2017, Jingzhou and other five cities including Baiyin, Yinchuan, Jiangyou, JilinHi-tech Zone, and Huaian Hi-tech Zone were officially defined as the second groupof the demonstration pilot cities of “China-Germany Low-Carbon Ecological CooperationProjects”.

Jingzhou has richresources in rivers and lakes as well as cultural tourism with a long history. Inrecent years, it has proposed the city development idea of “low-carbon pleasantliving environment”. In the crucial stage of city transformation development, Jingzhoubadly needs to borrow overseas and Chinese advanced technologies as well as citydevelopment ideas and experience to advance its sustainable development.

China (Jingzhou)-Germany Low-Carbon Eco-City is located within Ji’nanEco-culture Tourism Area. Grand diversion canal engineering crosses Jingzhou. TheEco-city plans to cover an area of around 14.7 square kilometers with a planningpopulation of 200,000. A group of culture and tourism themed projects includingChinese History & Culture Science Park, Eight-hundred-year History of the ChuState, and Jingchu Cultural Grand View Garden facilitated in the ecological demonstrationcity in Jingzhou.

The settlement of“China-Germany Ecological Demonstration City” embodies that Jingzhou has already made sufficient preparation. In November 2017, Jingzhou City signed the Memorandumof Understanding on China (Jingzhou)-Germany Low-Carbon Ecological Demonstration City Cooperation Project with French Building Science Technology Center, Chinese Society for Urban Studies, and School of Life Sciences of University of Science and Technology of China to join hands to conduct cooperation in terms of ecological city technology.

China (Jingzhou)-GermanyEco-City Project will integrate the demonstration effect of China (Jingzhou)-Germany Eco-City to co-build the China-Europe Ecological Tourism Demonstration Area with“pleasant living environment, green tourism, and low-carbon industry”.
