Accelerating Net Zero Living in Perth and Kinross - Pathfinder

继成功的第一阶段探路者地方项目，珀斯和金罗斯理事会，与尼基苏特协会合作，爱丁堡大学和Blairgowrie & Rattray社区信托基金正在寻求开发关键的社区共同创建的基于地点的解决方案，第一阶段地区的居民和企业投票通过的技术障碍。该项目将寻求探索如何利用专业知识最好地执行这些想法参与的合作伙伴。开发工作将集中在两个关键主题上：** 振兴家园 ** 将通过与当地供应商和安装商的合作，确定绿色技能差距，探索和修改客户重新申请资金的模式，并为可持续改造项目创造可行的商业模式，来研究整个系统的改造方法。还将开展工作，以创建一个当地的可信交易商网络和供应商/安装商框架，优先考虑私人和社会住房房东和业主使用的当地企业。连接区域旅游 ** 将调查两个新的服务的可行性，重点是农村城镇阿伯费尔迪。一个将着眼于出城到珀斯的快速巴士路线，另一个将集中在连接周围村庄和阿伯费尔迪的小型巴士服务上。工作还将考虑与医疗设施或火车站等重要目的地同步巴士时间表，提供快速巴士服务以及点对点运输服务的可行性。此外，它将研究降低成本的票价选择，以刺激需求，鼓励通勤模式的转变，最终努力减少道路上的车辆数量。将采取快速故障敏捷方法，允许项目的元素具有适应性，同时仍然专注于解决关键障碍。我们将通过广泛的监测和评估，与外部合作伙伴合作，以确保我们的调查结果和相关的学习在英国各地传播，达到当地政府，企业和社区团体。该项目将集中在珀斯和金罗斯地方当局地区，特别是阿伯费尔迪和布莱尔高里的社区。

Following on from a successful Phase 1 Pathfinder Places Project, Perth & Kinross Council, in partnership with Nicki Souter Associates, the University of Edinburgh and the Blairgowrie & Rattray Community Trust are seeking to develop the key community co-created place-based solutions that address non-technical barriers as voted for by residents and businesses in the Phase 1 areas.The project will seek to explore how these ideas can be best executed utilising the expertise of participating partners. The development work will focus on two key themes:**Revitalising Homes** will look at a whole systems approach to retrofit through engagement with local suppliers and installers, identifying green skills gaps, exploring and modifying the customer re-claim model for funding and creating a viable business model for a sustainable retrofit project. Work will also be carried out to create a local Trusted Trader Network and supplier/installer framework prioritising local businesses to be utilised by private and social housing landlords and owners.**Connecting Regional Travel** will investigate the viability of two new services focusing on the rural town of Aberfeldy. One will look at an express bus route out of the town to Perth, and another will concentrate on a minibus service connecting surrounding villages with Aberfeldy. Work will also look at synchronising bus schedules with vital destinations like healthcare facilities or train stations, provision of express bus services and feasibility of peer-to-peer transport services. Additionally, it will investigate reduced-cost fare options to stimulate demand and encourage a shift in commuting patterns, ultimately striving to reduce the number of vehicles on the road.A fail-fast agile approach will be taken allowing elements of the project to be adaptable, whilst still focused on the solutions to key barriers. We will maximise knowledge transfer through extensive monitoring and evaluation, working in collaboration with external partners to ensure that our findings and associated learnings are disseminated across the UK, reaching local government, businesses and community groups.The project will focus on the Perth & Kinross local authority area, with a particular focus on the communities of Aberfeldy and Blairgowrie.
