"Smart" can be defined and exhibited in different ways. But a foundation that enables intelligence must be established first. Learn about the foundational technologies and approaches that Smart Cities use to manage their critical infrastructure with deeper intelligence.
The term Smart City applies to any community were infrastructure assets, information technology and data analytics are fused into an integrated network. Covered in this PowerPoint are ways that a network can be built and data analytics employed to promote community-wide efficiency, resource resilience and stakeholder satisfaction, and expand opportunities for economic development.

WHAT IS A SMART CITY?
A Smart City uses Information and
Communications Technology (ICT) to
manage its critical functions –
infrastructure and social systems -- in
smarter and more integrated ways.
Benefits include increased efficiency,
resiliency, sustainability, economic
growth and citizen quality of life.
Smart City is not one size fits all; each city has different needs, priorities and flavors of Smart
6. SEVEN FACTORS ENABLING THE RISE OF SMART CITIES
• Pervasive wireless coverage
• Transformation of public carrier business plans
to accommodate the Internet of Everything
• Miniaturization of processors and the
integration of communication modules into
intelligent devices
• Abundant cheap data storage
and processing power
• Rise of cloud computing and
edge computing
• Access to vast data streams
enabling potential for rich
analytics
• Extensive improvements in
application development and
visual display capabilities

CLUSTER OF SMART CITY PROJECTS
Master planning of smart communication and electrical infrastructure for a more than 500
acre Bayfront redevelopment site in Chula Vista, CA.
In December 2014, the Port of San Diego became the first demonstration site in a series
of regional public-private smart building initiatives led by Cleantech San Diego and a team
of Internet of Things (IoT) technology providers to advance the region’s smart city goals.

The Green Build was the largest project in the history of San Diego International Airport.
Called “The Green Build” due to the Airport Authority’s commitment to sustainability and
the environment, as well as its positive economic impact. The Green Build created approx.
1,000 jobs at peak construction and provided a number of contract opportunities for
small businesses. Thanks to these efforts, In 2014 San Diego International Airport because
the world’s first LEED Platinum certified commercial airport terminal.

About Smart Grid Northwest
Mission: Promote, grow, and enable the smart grid industry and
infrastructure in the Pacific Northwest.
Our main activities include:
o Education
o Public Policy
o Regional Planning and Implementation
32. Why a Smart Grid for the Northwest?
• Create jobs as the sector’s cluster of metering, monitoring, controls,
software, analytics, and other technology companies develop
• Integrate new energy resources as distributed renewables,
dispatchable energy storage, automated demand response and other
energy solutions come online
• Empower the consumer as energy customers have more information
about their behavior so they can make wise decisions
• Ensure energy affordability as energy supply and demand is met
more dynamically
• Establish a more resilient, reliable, and sustainable energy
system as outages are fixed more rapidly, peak demand is abated,
efficiency programs are optimized, and a myriad of other benefits are
realized
