represent a fundamental step forward in management for municipalities and cities. They make it possible to manage energy more efficiently, save costs, increase safety and improve the quality of life of residents. However, these smart services cannot function today without reliable backbone infrastructure — very high-capacity communication networks (VHCN).
VHCN as a Necessary Condition
High-speed data networks make it possible to introduce advanced tools such as smart energy grid management (Smart Grid) or intelligent public lighting.
Without this infrastructure, data cannot be collected, analyzed, and managed in real time according to the needs of the city.
This page briefly shows what benefits value-added services in the energy sector can bring precisely where quality VHCN is available, and outlines the main areas of their use — smart distribution grid management (Grid) and modernized public lighting.
Example – Amsterdam
Smart street lighting can be found in the streets, responding to the use of the streets by pedestrians and regulating the lighting on the basis of this information, thus reducing its energy consumption
