2 Outline What is the framework? What is available at European level? How to become a Smart City? (covered by Jessen Page)

3 Experience and tenacity pay off! Imagine a building where heating, cooling, window shades and insulation are all integrated into its façade. FACTS AND FIGURES Project Name: FLUIDGLASS Research Area: FP-ENERGY Coordinator: Dr. Daniel Gstöhl Organisation: University of Lichtenstein Start - End Date: Sept 2013 August 2017 Duration: 48 months Project Cost: 5.1 million Euros Project Funding: 3.9 million Euros Contract Type: FP7 collaborative project Number of partners 11 (from 7 countries); 2 Swiss e.g. GlassX AG

4 International collaboration needed for a product that sells internationally If we only work with Swiss partners, we may develop a system that sells only in Switzerland FACTS AND FIGURES Project Name: MACSHEEP Research Area: FP-ENERGY Coordinator: Dr. Michel Yves Haller Organisation: UAS Rapperswil (HSR) Start - End Date: Duration: 48 months Project Cost: 3 million Euros Contract Type: FP7 collaborative project Number of partners 9 (from 6 countries) 2 Swiss (Energie Solaire SA)

5 The European plan for low carbon technology The Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET-Plan) provides a framework for the European Union to accelerate the development and deployment of cost-effective low carbon technologies in order to: meet the EU s targets by 2020: 20% reduction of greenhouse gas emissions (compared to 1990) 20% share of energy from low-carbon energy sources 20% reduction in the use of primary energy by improving energy efficiency (i.e. 368MToe saved from a forecasted consumption of 1842MToe in 2020) facilitate the transition towards a low carbon economy in 2050.

6 European Low Carbon Economy Roadmap 2050 EU GHG emissions towards an 80% domestic reduction (100% =1990)

7 Smart Cities & Communities European Initiative Solar Energy (PV & CSP) Wind Energy Bioenergy Nuclear Energy Carbon capture and storage Electrical Grids Fuel and Hydrogen Cells Smart Cities and Communities 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 organisational innovation, encompassing energy efficiency, low carbon technologies and the smart management of supply and demand.
