New process for municipal planning
• High uncertainty - both regarding
prognoses and technology
• We have chosen to aim towards the
upper estimates in the IPCC scenarios
• Will only matter after about 50 years -
until then the scenarios follow more or
less the same path.
• Continuous revision of the plan allows
for adjustments.
Choice of scenario - what are we protecting us against?

Reduction of owerflow from the sewer
A green and blue city - adapted to a
future climate = more quality of life • Adaptation is not
just a negative measure
• We can increase the recreational area and create more quality of life for copenhageners
• We can help make copenhageners more healthy
• We can create synergy with other planning
• We can increase biodiversity.
Harbour baths - a huge improvement of the
quality of life
Cloudburst Plan
Protecting against sea level raise
Areas for green growth and innovation
• Technical solutions - eg.
cleaning of run off from roads
• Technical solutions with high
design quality.
• Adaption in the existing city -
development and testing of
methods in the existing city
City of Copenhagen as front runner on
climate adaptation
Strategic planning
Longterm planning embedded in the city’s
planning system
Great potential, locally, nationally and
internationally
Global investment need
Partnership
Copenhagen Municipality will partner
universities, foundations and private
companies in the development of solutions
Innovation
Copenhagen will create new solutions
regarding adaptation that can be attatched to
the Copenhagen brand on high quality of life
• Will influence the way we utilise
and plan urban spaces
• Will influence the use and
development of recreative areas
in the city
• In the future we have to make
sure that we can manage and
control water when we develop
the city, and we will actively use
water as a ressource to improve
the urban life
Adaptation is a new precondition in urban
development
Thank you for your attention
