Efficient energy planning

• Sector analysis

• Zone planning

• Slope

Page 19: Martin gustafsson_introduction to-permaculture

Sector Analysis• Sun sector•flows of sun, light, rain, water flow, wind, noise and potential fire as they enter and move through the site

Further Aspects of Analysis • Legislation

• People and Community

• Physical resources– Energy

– Capital

– Waste disposal and recycling

– Economic resources

• Economic Resources

• Vegetation and Wildlife

• Aesthetics

Water Harvesting Techniques

• Catch from buildnings, structures, hard surfaces, land.

• Store on land: barrels, ponds, cisterns

• Store in plants & soil

• Store at highest potential spot

• Use at highest potential level

• ”move as long as possible, be used as many times as possible, get in contact with as many elements as possible, over as long time as possible”

Resilience, large‐scale land restoration techniques and designing for extremes

• Climate change

• Diversifying our options for food/water/ heat/shelter

• Medicinal plants

• Transportation options

• Specialization within different areas

Buildings, Structures and Energy

• Low & sustainable energy use

• Local adaptation

• Healthy & sustainable materials

• Cycling of nutrients

• Retrofitting

• Lifestyle change
