1 Integrated Concepts for Smart Cities Workshop Innovative space-based solutions for Future Cities July , Vienna Tanja Tötzer Klaus Steinnocher, Daiva Jakutyte-Walangitang, Hans-Martin Neumann

2 Why is there a need for smart city concepts? In the Smart Cities Initiative the European Commission proposes: to progress by 2020 towards a 20 % reduction of greenhouse gas emissions through sustainable use and production of energy, requiring systemic approaches and organizational innovation, encompassing energy efficiency, low carbon technologies and the smart management of supply and demand.

7 Multiple Smart City concept definitions Varying emphasis on the core characteristics of Smart City Key Smart City development objectives: from static to dynamic systems and networks from consumers to prosumers from single technologies to integrated systematic solutions 7

8 Smart City pillars Integration of processes, concepts and technologies processes (e.g. policies, urban planning, infrastructure planning, financing and stakeholder processes) concepts (e.g. energy efficiency measures; decentralised and centralised energy production strategies for heat, cold, electricity and fuels; mobility, waste and water strategies) technologies (e.g. CHPower, heat pumps, solar PV and thermal collectors, smart electrical and thermal network components) Use of Information and Communication Technologies for optimized design and operation of the urban energy systems the communication between technologies monitoring the performance of the Smart City the communication with end energy consumers 8

9 Smart City approaches Present sectoral approaches State of the Art Integrated Approach URBAN PLANNING ENERGY BUILDINGS MOBILITY INDUSTRY 9

10 The Smart Cities concept Takes the holistic approach, considering urban complexity Processes Focuses on energy systems (demand, supply, distribution, storage) and resulting carbon emissions Takes into account interactions between energy and mobility, water, waste, the quality of life of its citizens and socio-economic conditions within the city Technologies Energy produced in and for cities Concepts 10

12 Factors that influence the urban emission profile and energy consumption A city s geographic situation and climatic context influencing the amount of energy required for heating, cooling and lighting; Demographics the size of the population influences the demand for space and services; Eurostat Urban form and density sprawling cities tend to have higher per capita emissions than more compact ones; Urban footprint (DLR); Urban fabric types and microclimate response (UFT ADI) The urban economy types of economic activities and whether these emit large quantities of greenhouse gases; The wealth and consumption patterns of urban residents; Source: UN HABITAT, Global Report on Human Settlements
