Накратко на български

Връзката между „умните градове“ и екологията се анализира чрез измерване на потреблението на хиляди продукти в Тренто, Италия. Това помага за създаването на инструменти, които подобряват устойчивото развитие на градските системи и борбата с климатичните промени.

An integrated appRoach To improve the Environmental perforMance of smart cItieS

The smart city concept has received increased attention from researchers and decision-makers across the EU. However, there is a gap between smart city research & practice, and environmental sustainability: to date, smart city projects have not adequately assessed the environmental impacts of their strategies, which remain largely unknown. Research is needed to provide empirical evidence, advanced tools and metrics that can support the design, implementation and evaluation of smart city strategies to improve urban environmental sustainability. ARTEMIS aimed at investigating whether and how the smart city can improve the environmental performance of urban systems. The research contributed to the development of an integrated environmental impact assessment framework, coupling urban metabolism and life-cycle assessment, that can support decision-making in smart city projects. An urban metabolism model was developed for the Autonomous Province of Trento and its capital city, in Italy, annual consumption in the city and in the region for thousands of product types. ARTEMIS addressed issues related to climate change and environmental sustainability. The research and results can contribute to achieving the EU’s vision for climate neutral and smart cities and its aim of becoming a role model in sustainable development, as well as the goals set in the EU Green Deal and in the new Circular Economy Action Plan. The research findings, data and results are applicable to other projects, geographical areas and urban systems, to support the design and implementation of environmentally sustainable regional and urban development strategies.

Цел на проекта

The smart city concept has received increased attention from researchers and decision-makers across the EU. However, there is a gap between smart city research & practice, and environmental sustainability: to date, smart city projects have not adequately assessed the environmental impacts of their strategies, which remain largely unknown. Research is needed to provide empirical evidence, advanced tools and metrics that can support the design, implementation and evaluation of smart city strategies to improve urban environmental sustainability.RESEARCH GOALSARTEMIS will investigate whether and how the smart city can improve the environmental performance of urban systems. The research aims to provide insight on key aspects in smart city strategies that can effectively reduce environmental impacts; a novel environmental impact assessment framework to support decision-making in smart city projects; and improved key performance indicators (KPIs) on environmental sustainability and circularity for smart cities.ACHIEVING THE GOALSARTEMIS will develop an integrated framework coupling urban metabolism and life-cycle assessment, to estimate how strategies implemented in two EU-funded smart city projects (in Lisbon, Portugal, and Trento, Italy) have affected a wide set of environmental impacts, associated with urban systems. Drawing on the framework and results, KPIs will be provided to evaluate environmental sustainability in smart cities. The framework, recommendations and KPIs will be replicable across EU cities.RELEVANCE TO THE WORK PROGRAMMEARTEMIS will support the EU’s vision for smart cities and its aim of becoming a role model in sustainable development. My expertise in environmental impact assessment and the supervisor’s in smart cities bond effectively to pursue the research plan. The fellowship is a unique opportunity for me to obtain enhanced knowledge and skills on the development of environmental assessment tools and metrics for smart cities.
