ENERGY EFFICIENT AND ENVIRONMENTAL FOCUS OF SMART CITIES

Keywords: digital city, smart planning, urban software, multifunctional system, resident's, innovative technology.

Abstract

The idea of creating "green" or "sustainable" cities is aimed at improving and optimizing urban "metabolism" and involves the use of energy-efficient design solutions, "green" materials, and new approaches to urban urbanism. Some scientific sources give different interpretations of the definition of "smart city", which gives an idea of a more accurate understanding of such innovative settlements. As a rule, the differences in definitions are tied to the diversity of countries. Examples of smart cities are given, which are both successful and unsuccessful examples. In this article, an analysis was carried out using the method of questioning the citizens of Ukraine about the main priorities for defining the concept of a "smart" city. The most popular among the proposed answers were "smart" waste disposal and energy efficiency. This topic is relevant especially in the context of solving the issues of designing the urban environment, organizing the construction of buildings using environmentally friendly, renewable energy sources using digital technologies of smart cities.
