Mid-Review (Energy Group - Camposampiero)

On this step, we started the analysis based on the logics of the territory and proposing a new structure for testing the new technics in the territory.

day 2 Camposampiero - scenarios

social scenario
Continuing to work within the four subjects of activity, social network, mobility system and ecological environment two scenarios are being developed. The first scenario takes a social perspective and speculates a continuation of immigration and an aging of the local population. Energy is framing the second scenario, the assumtion is made that a transformation to self-sustaining or energy producing region will greatly impact the condition of the cita difusa. Imagining the conditions and the changes that will happen within the grid has created an understanding of the condition of Camposampiero. The next step in the development of the scenarios will be framing the scenarios by the subjects of lifecycle, embodied energy and inclusion.

In addition two the two scenarios, the idea of a smart grid is being developed. The smart grid is explored as a way of integrating and regulating the production and consumption of different exchanges of energy within the cita difusa.

The walk in Camposampiero

Camposampiero is a municipality of the province of Padova and part of the Camposampierese confederation, meaningfully representing the spatial and productive logics of the territory of the città diffusa. Among these, the distinction between small and big enterprises in Veneto Region is very subtle and rarely related to the dimensions of the shed or number of workers: the 48% of the sheds in the Padova area occupies less than 3.000 sq m and the 63% has less than 25 workers. The territorial organization depicts the capillarity of the productive system, working in synergy with infrastructures – water and asphalt - and the residential needs: a cultural landscape reflecting the local entrepreneurial spirit.

In the current economical situation this consolidated rationality is challenged by the need to reduce costs as well as energetic dispersion, both human and combustible. The need to have a more efficient accessibility to the main infrastructures of transportation, to develop synergies among resources, different phases and devices of production is determining the progressive coagulation of productive platforms, encouraged also at the level of territorial planning.
In this framework, in 2011 the Confederation of Camposampiero, made of 11 municipalities, having an average ratio of 1 enterprise each 10 habitants, has been founded having as one of the main objectives the development of a new territorial logic, able to maintain and improve the current level of competitiveness.

Silvia Fattore and Steve Bisson explain us the values of the territory and the social and economical potential deriving also from its spatial organization.
