Scale-Up Market Potential:
• Demonstrator: Committed city-
cluster municipalities (>€30m
investment)
• Cluster Fill-In: capture additional
volumes (up to €X00m)
• Regional Adoption: more than €2
billion savings
• National Impact towards the
10mln upgraded lamppost goals;
€Xbln investment; >€500m
savings
• Six ‘city-clusters’ committed to collaborate to
scale the smart lamppost
• Common design; packaged approach (‘what’);
potential joint procurements
• Staged coordinated readiness of city clusters,
with a templated approach for efficiency (‘tools’)
• City-needs-led and demand-driven
• Combined SCC01 & EIP-SCC actors
• Aligned with EIP-SCC ambition to upgrade 10
million lampposts across EU cities
• Between 400k-1 million addressable lampposts
