Cascais ü Quinta dos Lombos and Quinta de S. Gonçalo neighborhood in Carcavelos parish ü 2500 citizens ü 1500 apartments ü 88 underground bins for household waste and recycled waste (three fluxes: paper, plastic/metal and glass) ü reading “chips” (RFID) that identify the user through a card and communicate with each other over a wireless network. ü Access to the containers will be associated with VAT number of each user

Cascais ü The PAYT systems implementation tends to be an expensive initiative. Our waste management model only allows for collective collection. ü Cascais already has a very innovative waste management system, which makes it impossible to withstand the financial and technical changes that an individual system will bring. ü Therefore, the best solution will be to adapt the current waste management system to a collective PAYT model in order to take advantage of our innovative technology and avoid an increase in costs that we are not prepared to support.

Cascais Results of the baseline & surveys ü Surveys are still on hold due to definition of project start. Part of continuous interaction and communication with the public ü Baseline assessments prove a slight increase of recycling rate as there are less materials in household waste and an increase of recycling production. Proximity of waste bins? The survey will help to understand 400 350 300 250 200 150 100 50 0 Household Paper Glass April 17 December 17 Plastic

Cascais Environmental Programme The strategies for communication will be centered in: ü Citizens – direct contact with brochures, online information and participation games ü Children – school activities based on our environmental awareness program and W 4 T applications ü Tourists – direct contact with them and their landlords

Cascais Progress & achievements – 1 st Period ü 1 point given to a daily use, despite the number of usages ü 5 points if you use 80% of days in a given month ü 10 points if recycling rates have improved from baseline

Cascais Progress & achievements – 1 st Period Bag Acquisition Introducing RUB (organic waste) bags to further the recycling potential within the household waste a) Families are given bags for organic waste b) Waste is placed on household bins with duly closed and identifiable bags c) At treatment, bags are sorted from household waste for appropriate treatment 20. 000€ year Savings 38. 000€ year Production expectancy

Cascais Environmental Programme - Next steps ü Full start with school program ü Integration of apps in all activities ü Surveys and direct communication to potential users To start in later march April (depends of platform functionality)
