Smart Environment

PUB, Singapore’s National Water Agency, is rolling out the first phase of Smart Water Meter Programme in Singapore. This will see the installation of 300,000 smart water meters in new and existing residential, commercial and industrial premises by 2023. The Smart Water Meters are designed to monitor and collect water consumption data. This will enable PUB to provide consumers with value-added services through a mobile customer app, such as understanding their water usage, and alerting households of suspected water leaks.

Istanbul has started an extremely ambitious project in committing to expand the City’s own renewable energy supply, by placing floating solar panels on water surfaces by the Büyükçekmece dam, making use of the unused space on the city’s water basins and ponds.

eRoadArlanda is one of several projects in the Swedish Transport Administration’s pre-commercial procurement of innovation for the development of electrified roads. The techniques that have been developed in recent years are based on conductive technology that use an electric rail installed in roads to power and recharge vehicles during their journey.

Sensoneo sensors are installed in approximately ten cities and towns in the Czech Republic. Sensoneo has monitored glass, plastic and paper waste in underground bins in Prague II for over a year. As part of a twelve month pilot project, 420 sensors will be installed into waste containers (e.g. glass, plastics and other types of recyclable waste). The real technology benefits will be subsequently evaluated and a decision will be made on whether to expand or modify the project.

The Project will provide a new, multi-utility measuring system for selected buildings owned by the Capital of Prague. The system will provide complete and continuous measurements of the used energies, thus creating conditions for a flawless consumption monitoring of all energies in the given building. The customers will thus be able to always monitor their respective consumption on the web portal of PREměření.

ENLIL is  vertical turbine designed to capture one of the most important renewable energy sources, wind power by using the dynamics of modern cities. As an addition to commonly known turbines ENLIL is designed to capture the fast and continuous flow of all traffic on the roads. The solar panels located on the top of the turbine provide extra electricity to be captured. By generating appr.

The SymbioCity Approach seeks to improve the living conditions of people in urban settlements.

At DOLL they fill a gap in the innovation chain by bringing public and private actors together on a neutral ground, where they can test,  showcase and be inspired by cutting edge technology in a “one stop shop” with all relevant network infrastructures present across our 400 acre living lab.

Thinking Energy, a joint interactive trial between E.ON and Milton Keynes Council, was established in 2011. It involves 75 family homes in Milton Keynes. The aim of the trial is to develop and test innovative ways to manage energy consumption in the home. The idea is that homeowners will benefit from improved comfort, convenience and cost savings.
Trial participants have access to energy data via a web browser, tablet or smartphone application on-the-go. The easy and convenient access to data is making it easier for customers to understand and control their energy consumption.

CleanSpace is the world's first personal air pollution smart sensor.  The Tag tracks air pollution both indoors and outside, recording your exposure to harmful carbon monoxide (CO) to help avoid harmful air pollution. Completely mobile – the users can carry it with them wherever they go. It automatically uploads the users' measurements to their phone via Bluetooth, works with CleanSpace App to plan clean routes, avoid pollution hotspots and visualise trends.
