What is a “smart” city?
A “smart” city is a city living and breathing through its people, with its technological upgrading being at the same time a priority. An energy community with additional digital innovations aiming at improving quality of life, enhancing performance at all levels, optimizing resources exploitation and promoting citizens’ active and productive involvement.
The “smart” city responds with a smart approach to the terms citizenship, governance and mobility. Through this city, the value of the community and its people comes to surface whereby the consumer is now a producer controlling its own consumption. The so-called “prosumers” will play a pivotal role being interconnected with the new energy market as important partners and associates through blockchain, coming naturally in contact with all “smart” city stakeholders.
Services and applications for the cities include:
Home services and applications will include:
Therefore, using digital technologies, already existing structures and facilities will be constantly upgraded substantially interacting with citizens, with safety and credibility.
