9. Cities are a global development vehicle
It is estimated that by 2025 the urban
population will increase by 65 million
people a year, almost 200,000 more
inhabitants per day
By 2025 the 600 largest cities in the
world will have generated more than 30
trillion dollars of wealth, about 65% of
the total
Data Source: «When cities rule the world», Parag Khanna, McKinsey&Company 2012
Because of the increasing of
the population, by 2025 the
city will develop an additional
share of the residential land
85% of the current one, a
larger area than the whole of
Austria
In 2025 the water demand of the
city will increase by 80 billion
cubic meters / year
In 2025 the annual investment in the
city will be increased 10.000 billion
dollars / year

11. Smart Air
A2A is experimenting with
innovative technologies and
implementing many smart
projects
Smart Mobility - E-Moving Project
Smart Building
District Heating
Smart Lighting – The Led Project
The Sharing Cities Project
Enabling Platform IoT
Smart Green

12. SMART AIR
Environmental and pollution sensors
Sensors around the city allow us to: collect statistics and inform citizens and other interested
Plan traffic blocks and assess the effects. To more precisely anticipate atmospheric phenomena.
The smart AIR measure environmental
variables:
- temperature, humidity, and pressure
- modular sensitivity of the sensors: it can
monitor environmental-related data and the
environment in general.

13. SMART MOBILITY

PARKING
For urban waste: capable of
detecting and communicating its

.
first application: paid street level parking
second application: covers all regulated parking areas
(loading/unloading and time disc areas, disabled parking)

14. SMART TRAFFIC E-MOVING PROJECT
We inaugurated in July what we believe to be the largest Italian
E-Hub with 74 recharge points and 58 points predisposed at
the location of via Ponte Nuovo
We run the richest urban network in terms of:
& electrical powers
Only in Milan: network of over 350 charging points
We serve 4 electric / partially electric car-sharing
in Milan and Lombardy
Technology management service and our
development experience that began with the end of
2010.

16. SMART LIGHTING THE LED PROJECT
The emission of
23.000 tonnes of
CO2 has been
avoided thanks to
lower electricity
consumption.
- adds intelligence and control to lighting services with the objective of reducing
costs and expenditure on public lighting.
- introduces remote control of the lighting in order to set the times , so as to reduce
energy costs
- reduction in maintenance costs and improved resource management.
With the LED project, the A2A Group has replaced a large part of public lamps in Milan, Brescia
and Bergamo.
In Brescia 42.198
in Bergamo 14.965
and in Milan: 135.870.

17. SMART BUILDING
Buildings
are responsible for
41% of world energy
consumption
SMART ENERGY
Remote management, control and
reading of energy consumption
Applies to everyone the power
plants (electric, plumbing, gas,
HVAC, heating,ventilation and air
conditioning).
SMART MONITORING
Based on sensors able to monitor
the air conditions.
Physical : temperature and humidity
Chemical: presence of pollutants

18. A2A DISTRICT HEATING
No combustion
No smoke produced
Allowing the elimination of flue pipes.
Conscious choice for heating our homes which
generates benefits for the citizens and for the
environment.

19. From "episodes" to
integrated systems
Reached the center of the
city (presence of old gas
heating systems)

20. The Sharing Cities ‘lighthouse’ programme is a
proving ground for a better, common approach to
making smart cities a reality. By fostering
international collaboration between industry and
cities, the project seeks to develop affordable,
integrated, commercial-scale smart city solutions
with a high market potential. The project partners
work in close cooperation with the European
Innovation Partnership on Smart Cities and
Communities and with other `lighthouse` consortia.
SHARING CITIES PROJECT
Sharing Cities offers a framework for citizen
engagement and collaboration at local level, thereby
strengthening trust between cities and citizens. The
project draws on €24 million in EU funding. It aims to
trigger €500 million in investment and to engage over
100 municipalities across Europe.
