| D1P008: Description of project objectives/concepts | |
| D1P008: Description of project objectives/concepts | RESPONSE sets 11 Key Objectives (KOs) that are carefully designed to fully address the key research fields of technological innovation proposed by SETPlan Action 3.2. RESPONSE is also strongly committed to actively contribute to all 6 ‘Action Clusters’ set by the European Innovation Partnership on Smart Cities and Communities (EIPSCC). These KOs refer to so-called Transformation Axis (TA), which represent a set of complementary Elements (tools, methods, technologies), whose combined implementation maximizes impact. KO#1: Demonstrate novel solutions transforming the building stock into energy efficient, maximising RES harvesting KO#2: Demonstrate novel solutions transforming mixed-use urban districts, with high shares of locally produced renewable energy offering grid flexibility and stability through energy management and storage KO#3: Demonstrate novel solutions (city level) that enable the transformation/decarbonization of power networks (electricity, heating and cooling) - supporting fossil-based (e.g. coal) regions in transition KO#4: Demonstrate novel solutions (city level) for electro-mobility integration into the grid and appropriate city planning measures facilitating grid flexibility, reduce curtailment of the energy system and promote decarbonization KO#5: Demonstrate the transformation of cities in delivering more efficient citizen services boosting economic growth with ultra-modern ICT solutions and integration of City Information Platforms KO#6: Demonstrate citizen-centric Positive Energy Districts enabling active citizen participation and empowerment through an open innovation ecosystem allowing for citizens co-creation KO#7: Demonstrate novel solutions (city level) that support safer and resilient cities, also facilitating the development and implementation of proactive Climate Adaptation strategies KO#8: Design and test business models that are viable and financeable and develop robust investment concepts attracting appropriate sources of capital blending public funding with private financing. KO #9: Monitor the performance of deployed solutions for at least 3 years and assess the foreseen benefits with a Life Cycle Assessment and air quality modelling for enhancing future district/city design and decision making. KO#10: Identify critical regulatory, legal, data security/protection, gender and socio-economical aspects and barriers and propose practical recommendations on how to overcome them. KO#11: Maximize the impact and geographical reach of RESPONSE, through the deployment of communication channels and synergies with other SCC Projects, EIP-SCC and relevant EU level initiatives. |
| D1P009: Description of project upscaling strategies/potential | |
| D1P009: Description of project upscaling strategies/potential | RESPONSE adopts a City Transformation Strategy comprising of five (5) complimentary Transformation Axes (TA#1 - TA#5). The TAs are used to group ten (10) interdisciplinary Integrated Solutions (IS), according to the need they address, under a common umbrella. ISs represent a set of complementary Elements (tools, methods, technologies) serving a common goal, whose combined implementation maximizes impact. RESPONSE seeks to enable, demonstrate, replicate and accelerate the roll out of ISs consisting of both mature and innovative elements. RESPONSE brings together 8 cities who are active signatories of the Covenant of Mayors (CoM) for Climate and Energy Initiative and share a common vision for accelerating the decarbonisation of their territories, strengthening their capacity to adapt to unavoidable climate change impacts and allowing citizens to access secure, sustainable and affordable energy. During RESPONSE, the two LightHouse Cities (Dijon and Turku) will advance already existing city platforms to further support the operation of a smart and resilient city in the context of climate adaptation and safety risks, supporting services such as smart diagnostics (e.g. detect the risk of urban heat islands) and disaster management (due to heat waves, power shortcuts) or “perturbations” (public events, demonstrations), by sending targeted alerts to their citizens. In parallel the two LHs will share their know-how to less advanced cities the FellowCities (Brussels, Zaragoza, Botosani, Ptolemaida, Gabrovo, Severodonesk. |
