Assessing ecological aspects of smart and sustainable cities and municipalities

“Achieving municipal sustainability goals through personalized applications.”

Exploiting the sustainability potential of smart city solutions

Smart city solutions such as intelligent parking guidance systems or solutions for the smart home sector are helping cities meet their sustainability goals. However, since it is only possible to measure and verify these in rare cases, determining whether the use of certain solutions is really worthwhile in economic and ecological terms is no easy thing. We want to help cities and municipalities optimally manage their sustainability goals by evaluating different influencing factors and identifying unused potential, as well as involve citizens in decision-making processes.

Highlight of the High Performance Center

  • Demonstrating the feasibility and transferability of ecological methods and indicators using concrete smart city solutions from industry partners such as Telekom.

WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT

  • We evaluate various influencing factors of smart city solutions and help municipalities and cities understand when the use of a particular solution makes sense and how to optimally manage and achieve their sustainability goals.
  • Our scientists comprehensively demonstrate the as yet untapped potential of smart city solutions, with a focus on personalized solutions.
