SMART CITIES

TRANSFORMING CITIES INTO ENGINES OF GROWTH

​

To truly become ‘smart’, a city must transform itself into an ICT enabler for well-being, economic growth and innovation. By adopting common standards and information models, cities can achieve this transformation with minimum impact. Building an ecosystem where they can connect and collaborate is an important step towards building a sustainable Digital Single Market for Smart Cities. This enables the creation of interoperable and portable solutions that can be adapted and replicated for the needs of each city.

​

The FIWARE open source platform is becoming the “de facto” standard adopted by cities. Its open source nature allows platform providers to emerge faster in the market. This activates the kind of competition and freedom of choice that are essential for innovation and growth.

SMART INDUSTRY

PAVING THE WAY FOR THE DATA-DRIVEN INDUSTRY DIGITALIZATION

​

Data exchange and interoperability are central requirements for the further development of Industry 4.0. However, there is a dilemma that many companies are facing: They recognise the necessity of exchanging data and at the same time are worried about losing their sovereignty over sensitive, company-internal information.

​

FIWARE is creating a smart manufacturing platform, based on industry standards and open source components that helps develop smart applications for all production processes. It is driving standards and breaking up information silos, simplifying IoT Data Management, and transforming Big Data into knowledge. It hereby follows a data-driven approach through the decoupling of industrial processes while warranting sovereignty on a strategic asset: data.

SMART AGRIFOOD

DISCOVER THE NEW REVOLUTION IN FARMING

​

Smart Farming faces a number of issues. How can we develop Smart Solutions that automate processes across the entire value chain, such as from farm to the home? Can we make these solutions portable across farms? How do we bring a standard mechanism for farm management systems to integrate smart farming solutions and to be plug&play interoperable with multiple farm management systems?

​

The FIWARE Context Broker technology can easily integrate with blockchain technologies to provide a trustworthy and immutable tracing of certain updates on context linked to steps in the smart farm and food value chain. FIWARE also bring supports to the potential publication of farm data for transparency or the monetization of farm data offered to third parties, enabling new sources for revenues.

SMART ENERGY

THE ENERGY TRANSITION: FROM STRAIGHT SUPPLY CHAINS TO A COMPLEX ECOSYSTEM

​

What was once a direct value chain is transforming into complex ecosystems.

​

Consumers are becoming prosumers, and supply and demand is optimized in real time and at a very granular level. The need for flexibility has grown, notably with the innovations in of renewable energy, batteries, power electronics, electric mobility, blockchain, and rapid digitalization.

​

At the same time there are many business model innovations—rapid integration of distributed energy resources, decentralized markets, and P2P energy exchanges--that are driving differentiation and commodification across the energy sector leading to the electrification of everything.
