4. Ten Challenges to be covered: looking for the best solutions in

each field

4.1. Energy & Environment

Which solutions can be met to accelerate the transition

towards a climate neutral economy?

Why is important?

Climate change and environmental degradation have become an existential & worldwide threat. As an

increasing number of countries and organizations worldwide are setting dates to achieve a climate neutral

economy scenario - capable of guaranteeing the well-being of present and future generations - great

opportunities open for supporting institutions & industries (i.e. energy, fashion, manufacturing, agriculture,

transport) to make a better use of natural resources, reduce carbon emissions and shift from linear to circular

economy model adoption.

What are we looking for?

New solutions to optimize and automatize energy storage, distributed generation and energy

management.

Green Energy Generation: renewable, waste-to-energy, fuel conversion, recycling materials from

energy production plants.

/energy reduction; recycling; etc..).

6

4.2. Infrastructure and Buildings

Which tech solutions may help to solve outstanding

issues, adapting a new culture while remaining loyal to

city identity and sense of community?

Why is important?

Metropolitan hubs attract people for many reasons: jobs, family, scenery, or reputation to name a few. But, as

the urban population amasses so do the challenges associated with overpopulation. It is estimated that a little

over half of the world's population lives in cities, and this percentage will climb to 68 percent in the next thirty

years. Cities come with a variety of opportunities, but also a litany of issues: environmental collapse, income

inequality, personal isolation, and more are acutely felt within city limits. As urbanization continues to take

hold, urban planning strategies must adapt. A large contingency of people will be affected by the following

challenges associated with urban planning if changes aren't implemented soon."

What are we looking for?

Digital twins: interactive platforms to capture and display real-time 3D and 4D spatial data in order to

model urban environments (cities) and the data feeds within them

AR/VR: collaborative tools for design and planning built environment, i.e. creating augmented reality

maps, buildings & data feeds

Advanced solutions to better plan, design, construct, operate & maintain diverse physical

infrastructures & facilities (public & private housing, buildings, utilities, roads, bridges, ports,

airports, etc.)

Digital identity, Smart contracts & other tech-based solutions to enable trust, reliability &

transparency among public and private stakeholders in experience industry (tourism, leisure, etc.)

7

4.3. Safety & Security

How to build a data-centric digital economy where

data is available for broader communal use, with

appropriate privacy protections?

Why is important?

The exponential growth of data collected and extracted from multiple sources is posing serious concerns over

the way in which public and private information is managed (privacy), as well as over the vulnerability scarce

protection capacity over such data. How to build a data-centric digital economy where data is available for

broader communal use, with appropriate privacy protections? How successfully prevent frauds, misuse or

other harnessing activities which could compromise public or private data centered assets (i.e. critical

infrastructures) and data-based operations?

What are we looking for?

Solutions to enable online and offline mapping of data and assets

Protection for field-level components and industrial control systems (ICS)

Cybersecurity solutions for connected critical infrastructures & industries (e.g. electric power

facilities, smart grids, digital factories, etc.)

Solutions to prevent system fraud as well as cyber-espionage and sabotage, ensuring continuous

service and/or production system operations

4.4. Governance & Economy

Which solutions can be met to accelerate the transition

towards a real citizen engagement?

Why is important? Citizen detachment from social and political debates are clear all around the world. As an

increasing number of cities are setting goals that urgently need to recover citizen commitment, great

opportunities open for supporting institutions & industries (i.e. education, political parties, civil organizations,

transnational platforms) to make a better use of information, connections and coordinated efforts to shift

toward an engaging model.

8

What are we looking for?

New solutions to optimize and automatize citizen interaction.

Advanced solutions to collect, measure and report participation within entire communities in a

transparent, accurate and reliable manner.

/energy reduction; recycling; etc..).

Trust-enabling technologies (Iot, Blockchain) to perform online transactions and exchange of data

based on principles such as: digital identity, data security, transparency and auditability

4.5. Living & Inclusion

How can technology boost citizens well-being and

inclusiveness in urban areas, their surroundings and

their regions to successfully build a sustainable and

fair society?

Why is important? Current economic context, latest political debates, the climate crisis and, even Covid-19

pandemic have highlighted the urgency for a more sustainable model for our cities. This context has also

arisen the reality of deep differences between different communities among our own metropolis - i.e. massive

need for understanding digitalization - as well as pressing new needs on urban core functions (rethinking

housing, leisure and tourism to ensure social distancing; augmented connectivity to monitor / track citizens'

health; etc..).

What are we looking for?

Solutions to enable deployment of next-generation of connectivity and services i.e. based on 5G

technology

4.6. Active Mobility

Which solutions can nudge citizens towards active

modes?

Why is it important?

Active Mobility, when physical activity doubles as a form of transport, can create health benefits and reduce

demand for motorised transport. Given the benefits, cities are generally eager to boost active mobility, but it

comes with challenges in respect to infrastructure and safety, as well as potential organisational and cultural

barriers to overcome. How to promote a shift towards active mobility, while mitigating any barriers, is one of

EIT Urban Mobility's key challenge areas.  

What are we looking for?

Implementation or improvement of (e)-bike sharing (private, free floating, station-based, peer-to-peer

private and public).

mile active logistics solutions.

Creation of mid-/long-distance walking infrastructure both within denser urban areas and connecting

denser urban areas to peripheral city areas.

Etc.

4.7. Future Mobility

Which solutions make tomorrow’s transport smarter,

faster, safer and cleaner?

Why is it important?

Digitalisation has disrupted urban mobility, creating new services, expanding transport into new areas and

changing how we move within cities. The disruption is continuing, and cities have been challenged with

handling 'the future mobility' services, whilst trying to prepare for a constantly changing mobility

landscape. New services and disruptive technologies have the potential to reshape the way in which we live

and work and how we move, therefore Future Mobility is one of EIT Urban Mobility’s key challenge areas.

innovations (artificial intelligence, blockchain, 5G and IOT).

Creation of transport on-demand services adapted to user needs enabling accessibility for low-density

areas and vulnerable users.

Etc.

4.8. Sustainable City Logistics

How do we reduce the logistics burden in cities?

Why is it important?

Digitalisation and e-commerce have changed urban logistics. Introducing innovations in city logistics and

making it more sustainable requires cooperation between a wide range of partners as well as new vehicles,

business models and technologies. How to manage these changes sustainably, and benefit as a city, is one of

EIT Urban Mobility's key challenge areas.

What are we looking for?

centres and use of waterways.

Drone delivery solutions.

Parking, loading and unloading management solutions for freight to reduce obstructive vehicles.

Etc.

11

4.9. Mobility & Energy

Which are the best solutions to phase-out fossil fuel

vehicles?

Why is it important?

The transport sector in Europe is over 90% fossil fuel dependent. It is crucial that we look to alternative

sources in order to decarbonise our transport systems and increase energy independence. The widescale

adoption of electric and alternative fuel vehicles in urban areas presents unique challenges including charging

infrastructure and the need for load-balancing solutions. Because of the importance of clean air in our cities

and the technical and spatial requirements needed to transition to cleaner fuels, Energy and Mobility is one of

the EIT Urban Mobility's key challenge areas.
