摘要：Urbanization causes many changes to the land management
system. It is estimated that cities are responsible for 75% of the total
energy consumption, and in 2045 they will be inhabited by about 70% of
the world’s population. These are the reasons why they should be reflected
upon with regard to the problem of environmental protection, and further
by means of energy production from renewable energy sources, an efficient
public transport system, or securing green areas in a city space. In
protecting the natural environment, urban development policy should,
according to the guidelines of the European Union, be adapted to the
requirements for the reduction of the need for heat, electricity and gaseous
fuels. The EU directives indicate the need to increase the share of
renewable energy in final consumption (in the first stage, up to 15%) and
to reduce CO2 emissions by 20%. The aim of the article is an attempt to
determine how to implement green energy into cities through planning
documents. Material for analysis was obtained from standardized
interviews carried out with the inhabitants of Zielona Góra and the
documents which are the base to the implementation of the Urban Energy
Audit (EAM). Policy concerning the introduction of green energy to cities
should primarily be determining tasks to carry out at a national
(centralized) and local (decentralized) level. Tools to implement this vision
at a local level shall be, inter alia, municipal planning documents.
