SMART CITIES AND MOBILITY

Transcription

1 SMART CITIES AND MOBILITY Franco Anzioso Centro Ricerche FIAT SMART CITY:A POSSIBLE DEFINITION Smart Cities can be identified (and ranked) along six main axes or dimensions. These axes are: smart economy; smart mobility; smart energy & environment; smart people; smart living; smart governance. These six axes connect with traditional regional and neoclassical theories of urban growth and development. In particular, the axes are based - respectively - on theories of regional competitiveness, transport and ICT economics, natural resources, human and social capital, quality of life, and participation of citizens in the governance of cities. A city can be defined as smart when investments in human and social capital and traditional (transport) and modern (ICT) communication infrastructure fuel sustainable economic development and a high quality of life, with a wise management of natural resources, through participatory governance. 1

2 SMARTCITY IN A PICTURE... SMART-CITIES INITIATIVE 4 2

3 EUROPEAN ENERGY STRATEGY SET-PLAN The set plan is a strategic plan to accelerate the development and deployment of cost-effective low carbon technologies. This plan comprises measures relating to planning, implementation, resources and international cooperation in the field of energy technology. EUROPEAN INITIATIVE ON SMART CITIES This Initiative will support cities and regions in taking ambitious and pioneering measures to progress by 2020 towards a 40% reduction of greenhouse gas emissions through sustainable use and production of energy. This will require systemic approaches and organizational innovation, encompassing energy efficiency, low carbon technologies and the smart management of supply and demand. In particular, measures on buildings, local energy networks and transport would be the main components of the Initiative. Among the specific Objectives in SET PLAN for smart-cities we would like to cite: Transport testing and deployment programmes will be implemented for low carbon public and individual transport Sustainable mobility (advanced smart public transport, intelligent traffic management and congestion avoidance, demand management, information and communication,.). Buildings refurbishment Smart energy management systems Smart lighting (in particular solid state lighting for street and indoor), equipment (e.g. motor systems) 5 Short History The Smart Cities Initiative was proposed and added to the other 6 European Industrial Initiatives of the SET Plan at the request of the European Parliament and Council; It is part of the Communication on investing in the development of low carbon technologies adopted by the Commission in 2009 and endorsed by the Council and Parliament in 2010; It aims to bring the cities at forefront of deployment of low carbon technologies, to accelerate the market uptake of the energy efficiency, renewable energy source and energy networks technologies; The Smart Cities Initiative will focus on facilitating the deployment of low carbon technologies by combining technologies and intelligence, by integrating the use low carbon technologies with local needs and functions while ensuring an impact on increased energy efficiency and environment; It will build on the work and knowledge gained from EU funded programmes, such as CONCERTO (22 projects involving 58 European communities), and the Public Private-Partnership in Energy Efficiency in Buildings ("E2B") CIVITAS & URBAN. 60% of EU population lives in urban areas of over 50,000 inhabitants (80% in urban contexts) Europe is characterized by a unique polycentric structure of large, midsize and small cities (apart from Paris and London) European cities encompass significant disparities in economic and social opportunities, either spatially between neighborhoods or socially between different groups of population Cities consume 75% of the world s natural resources and produce 75% of its waste 3

4 SMART MOBILITY AXIS CONSIDERATIONS ON MOBILITY TECHNOLOGIES Smart Cities Initiative objective is to have a visible impact in low carbon technologies deployment over the period The target seems to be demonstrative research since the stress is on technology deployment (maybe a similar approach to Green Cars Initiative demonstration fleet) The time frame of conventional 7FP project is 4-5 years maximum, therefore the needs of measurable results will require the deployment of market ready technologies Electric mobility could not be the only solution (even if it is strategic), other technologies should be included in the projects (e.g. CNG, Blend, Poly fuel technologies like tetrafuel, ) Integration Mobility-Infrastructure will must be considered 4

5 Smart-cities to be realistic must take into account car-makers vision Reduce the energy needed by the vehicle during operation Increase the efficiency of the internal combustion engine Policy (e.g.incentives) and Business Models (e.g. Car Sharing) Increase the portion of carbon-neutral content of liquid fuels (bio-fuels) Replace the energy vector and the energy sources Incentives, Public Procurement Realize the infrastructure ELECTRIC TECHNOLOGY PART OF THE SOLUTION ELECTRIC VEHICLES WILL BE PART OF THE SOLUTION BUT THE TARGET -40% CO2 REDUCTION REQUIRES SOMETHING MORE... 5

8 Electromobility: longer term options to overcome the range limitation The solution is probably not a further technological evolution of storage systems, but a development of appropriate infrastructures to override weight and cost limits. Quick-fast charge infrastructure high power recharging units able to recharge up to 80% of the battery State of Charge in not more then 30 minutes (today) - 5 minutes (tomorrow) Battery swap complete battery system substitution in 2-3 minutes using robotised systems located in the future recharging stations (standardisation needed) Electrified road lines (charge while driving) electric supply systems applied in the main roads to continuously transfer electric energy to the vehicles (safety, reliability, low impact and limited cost) 15 Smart cities and CRF: What s going on Turin is part of Covenant of Mayor The municipality presented (in November 2010) the Turin Action Plan for Energy (TAPE) The City presented candidature to become a smart city in series of press conference The city is leading a strategic plan in preparation of future Smart cities calls involving main National and local stakeholders A first proposal (in partnership with Turin Municipality) has been submitted by CRF under the last ICT PSP call. The proposal is part of Turin Smart cities strategy. 16 8
