4 Conceptual visión for a Smart City Common Features Technological Factors Specific Features Smart City Life Government Economy It must have a city strategy built on a range of initiatives dealing with smart cities features. These should be developed by specific projects and by using city components Smart City Citizen Mobility Strategy Institutional Environment Human Inititatives Factors Factors Projects Source: Mapping Smart Cities in the EU

5 Conceptual framework of the Valencian Strategy Strategy City of Valencia Liveable Focused on its citizens quality of life Innovative Socially, economically and environmentally sustainable Local Agreement for Innovation Smart City Valencia Job creation and a city to invest in Well-connected International and singular Lastest generation infrastructures Smart growth: based on knowledge and innovation economy. Sustainable growth: effective use of resources, greener and more competitive. Inclusive growth: high level of employment, delivering social and territorial cohesion.

6 Environmental Local Policies Adaptation to climate change and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions Valencia 2020 Strategy addressing Climate Change Action Plans for sustainable energy, air quality and noise pollution Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan Valencian Observatory on Climate Change Municipal regulation for light protection in Albufera Natural Park Municipal regulation of noise pollution for the city. Signature of European Covenant of Mayors (2009) and Mayors Adapt Initiative for climate change (2014).

8 Electronic Office Enquiry and documents upload of 7 million electronic records. 95% online procedures through the electronic office. Electronic public notice board. Tributary Electronic Office. Electronic Representation Interoperability With other administrations ,000 ecertificates - 400,000 eprocedures egovernment Electronic Administration - Electronic Office In a year, the Office has been visited by more than 257,000 people, of whom more than 23,200 has been authenticated. 1 st Paper free Spanish Council Geographic Information System 250 data layers. Integrated maps, street view and territory date base. Accessibility Inclusite System Disabled people have full access to the municipal website.

9 Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan for Valencia (PMUS), September % of journeys in Valencia are sustainably made 3,900 detectors to measure traffic intensity 1,100 local traffic light management regulators Artificial vision systems for automatic incident detection on underpasses. Mobility Traffic Municipal Bus Service (EMT) Valenbisi Real time traffic status Information panels, Twitter and phone service. Public rental of bikes 2,750 bicycles distributed at 275 stations and 5,500 anchor points. 90,000 subscribers Sustainable vehicles - Saving 5,200 CO2 t/year - Electronic management of incidents. - Municipal park of electric vehicles - Real-time communication within bus fleet biodiesel buses buses with compressed natural gas - 5 hybrid buses

10 URBAN WASTE MANAGMENT Separate collection systems Public awareness campaigns WATER SMART METERING 60% already renovated (258,000), 430,000 in % of the beaches have blue flag INTEGRAL ADVANCED SYSTEM FOR WATER MANAGEMENT Control and monitoring information in real time from 1,450 km Infraestructure Network 35% water savings Environment Environmental Quality, Renewable Energy, climate change and integrated water cycle LIFE Projects Ecolight Biocompost Ecorice Sensors for early forest fire detection CAT-MED Project Green squares Resilient Systems for urban floods Dynamic Maps for noise pollution and pollen levels

11 Public Lighting Replacing sodium vapor lamps by LED lamps Traffic lights with LED technology 70% of lamps have flow regulators Power Generation Photovoltaic roofs and vertical gardens Environment Measures to reduce CO 2 emissions in the city : Efficient water management Reduction of 13.7% in water consumption in 7 years. Smart water system for green areas. Green areas 5.8 million m 2 of green spaces Natural Park of La Devesa del Saler with 8.7 million m 2 Energy efficiency policies 24% energy consumption reduction compared to 2008, avoiding the emission of 8,000 CO 2 tonnes

12 Best practices Sport Complex of Malilla Maximum efficiency, minimum consumption Technology for energy saving Natural lighting Thermal insulation 30% energy saving Solar panels and Cogeneration system production of 86% of the necessary heat requirement to operate the complex Synthetic grass Human presence detection systems

13 Patraix Social Centre European Project: Baas Building as a Service Application of environmental intelligence to obtain a building that fits its needs. Best practices 6th district unit of the Valencian Local Police A geothermic system that uses the energy from the ground to produce a combined savings in energy consumption and emissions to the atmosphere. Up to 40% savings compared to a similar building.

14 Participation in European Projects Transition Cities Innovative low-carbon project Pilot projects and experiments in the fields of each of the six strategic clusters: Cluster 1: Low-energy buildings. Cluster 2: Energy demand management. Cluster 3: Co-generation and renewable energy. Cluster 4: Generating energy from waste. Cluster 5: Low Power Vehicles. Cluster 6: Integrated Mobility.

15 Participation in European Projects Transition Cities Smart Bicycle Urban Heat Island Dynamic urban environmental mapping The design and production of a mobile interface device that links heat and humidity characteristics of the urban space with the physical morphology of the city (street wide, building height, pavement materials, green areas, parking, traffic) that can be expressed in a GIS-cartography. Ecodriving More efficient and safe driving Inclusion of monitoring technologies and vehicle test systems that measure the driving style to provide a systematic methodology to educate and train drivers of public fleets and citizens.

16 Participation in European Projects Public Procurement of Innovation in Action (PPIA) PPIA aims to increase understanding of the methodologies of procurement to boost innovation (PPI), its types, efficiency and adaptability, and disseminate to all stakeholders (supply / demand) community-kic and beyond that seeks to identify new forms of innovation to reduce climate change. Objectives: Identification and sharing of good practice. Practical application and demonstration of public innovation procurement. Key issues identified by the Climate-KIC: Housing and built environment Mobility (carbon emissions in transport) Energy networks

17 Participation in European Projects SMILE - Smart Green Innovative Urban Logistics for Energy Efficient Mediterranean Cities Development and implementation of innovative strategies, plans and measures for energy efficiency and mobility solutions for Mediterranean smart cities. It will define, plan, review, share and promote public policies, strategies and actions for urban transport solutions.; and awareness of public and private stakeholders in the field, with a direct impact on energy savings.

18 Participation in European Projects New concrete additives based on titanium dioxide to improve air quality in cities. The titanium dioxide implemented in the concrete of building structures, is activated by sunlight purifying the air. It is intended to extend the use of this type of concrete to the countries of northern Europe with less sunlight.
