mySMARTLife

 Sustainable and ecological cities

Description

Coordinated by CARTIF, mySMARTLife aims to create sustainable cities, more environmentally friendly, by reducing CO2 emissions and increasing the use of RES. 150 smart actions will take place in the lighthouse cities Nantes, Hamburg and Helsinki while follower Cities Bydgoszcz, Rijeka and Palencia will learn from these experiences. “Smart Citizens“, playing a vital role in their city’s development and “Smart Economy” as an innovative and dynamic economic concept, will be the basis of this urban transformation.

The interventions planned and carried out in the lighthouse cities include innovative technological solutions connected to high-performance buildings, usage of RES, clean transport and supported by ICT solutions.
