SUSTAINABLE URBAN TRINITY of Wellbeing, Quality of Life and Sustainable Growth

About 70% of the EU population lives in metropolitan regions, generating about 70% of the EU’s GDP. Cities are the engines of the European economy as well as the drivers for economic development, creativity, innovation

and new technologies. The key dimensions of urban life – environmental, economic, social and cultural – are closely interconnected, demanding

an integrated urban development approach. Policies and Measures concerning physical urban renewal must be combined with measures promoting education,

economic development, social inclusion and environmental protection. The development of strong partnerships between local citizens, civil society, the local economy and the various levels of

government is another precondition to meet the challenges European cities currently face. These challenges range from specific demographic changes to all the effects economic stagnation as increasing

joblessness and social progress decline, unemployment, segregation and poverty and climate change. The response to these challenges will be critical for achieving the smart, sustainable, inclusive society envisaged in the

Europe 2020 Strategy. European cities should be places of advanced social progress and environmental regeneration, as well as places of

attraction and engines of economic growth based on a holistic integrated approach in which all aspects of sustainability are taken into account.

As a basic principle, the European Commission for Cohesion Policy 2014-2020 aims to support sustainable urban development through integrated investment strategies via the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the European Social Fund (ESF), “to support measures related to employment, education, social inclusion and institutional capacity…”.

In all, the EU is looking for a strategic, holistic, and integrated approach to sustainable urban and territorial development>>>.

A Sustainable City is to be indicated as a city implementing integrated and innovative actions for sustainable urban development with delegated management in the Partnership Contract and the Operational Programmes to have the EU CSF Funding 2014- 2020 benefits:

Ring-fencing funding for integrated sustainable urban development A minimum of 5 % of the ERDF resources allocated to each Member State shall be invested in integrated actions for sustainable urban development implemented through the Integrated Territorial Investment (ITI) tool, with the management and implementation delegated to cities (Article 7 paragraph 2 of the proposed ERDF regulation).

The form and degree of the delegation of the management to the cities may vary according to the institutional arrangements of each Member State.

The cities implementing integrated actions for sustainable urban development with delegated management should be included in a list accompanying the Partnership Contracts (Article 7, paragraph 2) and the operational programme (Article 87, paragraph 2 [c]). These lists are indicative and could be modified during the course of the programming period.

Urban Development Platform: Based on a list of cities prepared by Member States in their Partnership Contract, the Commission will establish an Urban Development Platform comprising 300 cities throughout Europe, which will stimulate a more policy-oriented dialogue on urban development between the cities at European level and the Commission.

It is not a funding instrument, but rather a mechanism for making the contribution of cities under cohesion policy to the Europe 2020 Strategy more visible, facilitating integrated and innovative actions for sustainable urban development and capitalising on the results (Article 8 of the proposed ERDF regulation).

Operations supported by several funds, multi-fund Operational Programmes and cross-financing: The implementation of integrated urban development strategies will be enhanced by the possibility to combine actions financed by ERDF, ESF and CF either at programme or operation level.

Cross-financing between ERDF and ESF of a part of an operation (up to 5 % of each priority axis of an Operational Programme) will remain to complement the multi-fund approach (Article 55, paragraph 8 and 88 of the proposed Common Provisions for CSF Funds 2014-2020).

The Scale and Scope of ITI: the financing of integrated actions is to be ranging from neighbourhood or district level to functional areas such as city-regions or metropolitan areas – including neighbouring rural areas.

Besides, the innovative urban actions (0,2% of the total ERDF allocation) are supported as urban pilot projects, demonstration projects, etc., covering all thematic objectives and investment priorities.

The comprehensive spatial structure framework will provide an intelligent urban design context for planning, prioritising and assessing the city’s form, systems, structures and operations, the natural and built environments and optimal use of space to achieve the best conditions for sustainable living.

It will provide guidelines for the City Council and developers, as well as urban communities. It will help to ensure smarter, greener and more attractive streets, green city parks, vibrant retail areas, creative social

interactions, smart cultural life, best connections between the urban spaces, smooth multi-modal traffic flows, bicycles routes, vehicle flows, pedestrian pathways, street hierarchies, transit routes, parking sites, junctures, waterfront connections, and parks and public spaces.

It will result in high-quality built environment complementing and harmonising with urban or communal natural environment.

It will ensure a human-scale, walkable city, rich and varied spatial structure and landscape, vibrant urban neighbourhoods, attractive built fabric, built forms and open space structure, and best environmental and economic performance.

The spatial structure plan will guide the future community development, high-quality intelligent design of its facilities and buildings, infrastructure and public spaces, focusing on the location and arrangement and spacing of buildings, the logical hierarchy of streets, respecting the landform and existing development and cultural heritage, as well as the land use and. building uses.

The Plan will provide guidance for integrated infrastructure provision, community and recreational needs, reasonable land acquisition and/or disposal, and smart investment, specifying the relationships between the city core and the rest of the city within a wider regional setting.

There are a set of future city principles that underpin the spatial structure plan that include: digital community principles, eco community principles and knowledge community foundations, all with integration, identity, variety and legibility, accessibility, walkability and public transport, amenity and openness.

The Spatial Plan Benefits: optimizing development capacity, urban spacing (land parcels connections), building arrangement, and street systems; financial benefits, land and development efficiency, logical density, resources optimization and public safety.


To achieve a “smart” and “green” and “social” vision, interrelated strategic directions for sustainability, connectedness, mobility, etc. should be supported by Smart Council Policies.

Long Term Council Community Plan, with associated plans and strategies: Future Urban Development ICT Networks Transport Economic Development Environmental: parks, reserves and core infrastructures for energy, water and waste Social and Recreation Cultural Institutions and Well-being Governance on the future of the city.

On 10 July 2012, the European Commission launched the Smart Cities and Communities European Innovation Partnership under the responsibility of Directorate-General for Communications Networks, Content and Technology, Sustainable and Secure Society, Smart Cities and Sustainability. The partnership proposes to pool resources to support the demonstration of energy, transport and information and communication technologies (ICT) in urban areas: C(2012)4701 final, 10.7.2012

The energy, transport and ICT industries are invited to work together with cities to combine their technologies to address cities' needs. This will enable innovative, integrated and efficient technologies to roll out and enter the market more easily, while placing cities at the centre of innovation. The funding will be awarded through yearly calls for proposals under "Horizon 2020", the new research and innovation funding framework under the next Multiannual Financing Framework (MFF 2014-2020).

Communication from the Commission "Smart Cities and Communities - European Innovation Partnership" [COM(2012)4701. GB: EUROPEAN COMMISSION, DIRECTORATE-GENERAL FOR COMMUNICATIONS NETWORKS, CONTENT AND TECHNOLOGY, DIRECTORATE-

GENERAL FOR ENERGY, DIRECTORATE-GENERAL FOR MOBILITY AND TRANSPORT GB: The Smart Cities Stakeholder Platform , a collaborative, networking and knowledge sharing tool in the domain of Smart Cities and

Communities. GB: High Level Group (supported by its Sherpa Group): High level representatives from industry, research and cities, which are appointed by

the European Commission in their personal capacity. Definition and Goals:

Smart Cities are defined as systems of people interacting with and using flows of energy, materials, services and financing to catalyse sustainable economic development, resilience, and high quality of life; these flows and interactions become smart through making strategic use of information and communication infrastructure and services in a process of transparent urban planning and management that is responsive to the social and economic needs of society.

Goals: 1. negotiate obstacles to smart cities, to co-fund demonstration projects and to help coordinate existing city initiatives and projects, by pooling its resources together; 2. establish strategic partnerships between industry, financial institutions, and European cities to develop the urban systems and infrastructures of tomorrow; 3. combine ICT, energy management and transport management to create innovative solutions to the major urban environmental, societal and health challenges.

The Intelligent Community and Smart City Strategic Development Planning is to include the Strategic Implementation Plan of the EIP on Smart Cities and Communities:

Sustainable Urban Mobility – Alternative energies, public transport, efficient logistics, planning;

Sustainable Districts and Built Environment –improving the energy efficiency of buildings and districts, increasing the share of renewable energy sources used and the liveability of our communities;

Integrated Infrastructures and processes across Energy, ICT and Transport – connecting infrastructure assets to improve the efficiency and sustainability of cities

The Plan puts forward eight key horizontal enablers on the themes of Decisions, Insight, and Financing.

Eleven inter-dependent priority areas are considered to be the most important concerning Smart Cities and Communities, and the intersection with the areas of energy, transport and ICT, as in the diagram, Priority Areas.

Each priority area is to be specified against: context and challenges; drivers and goals; and actions to perform.

To deploy smart city solutions across urban mobility; districts and built environment; and integrated infrastructures, reaching Europe's 20/20/20 energy and climate targets, the concept of Smart City ”Lighthouse Initiatives” is to be implemented, requesting collaboration between the European Commission, Member States and Industry, as well as cities and research institutions.

Over the next 7 years, a portfolio of at least 20 - 25 lighthouse projects is to be created: each with 6-10 cities (and partners), with the potential for Europe-wide roll out – dependent on levels of commitment, and access to / creation of funds.

Successful lighthouse initiatives will provide a solid foundation and give confidence to other cities, in the knowledge they can apply tested solutions (and that have already attracted investment) – that will be better, faster, and cheaper to implement a Europe-wide deployment of Smart City concepts. .

Implementation principles to be guided: close city–industry collaboration; outcome and user-centric approach to service design; open governance and information principles; inclusive and balanced SME participation; integration of physical and digital infrastructures; actively seek to innovate, learn, and share knowledge; collaborative governance.

As the cities, regions and corridors get aggregated, this will necessitate the development of Smart Cities to increase the urban performance, wealth, productivity, and wellbeing.

Given the tendency of integration of the core city with its suburbs (suburbanization or urban sprawl), and daughter cities (city networking), there are 3 types of intelligent growth for large European Capitals, as London, Paris, Berlin, Madrid, etc.:

Metropolis, or Mega City: Integration of core or capital city with suburbs, downtowns and local communities.

Mega Region: Integration of two or more cities or expansion of city to join with neighbouring cities to form a Mega Region.

Mega Corridor: Urbanization Corridors connecting two or more Mega Cities or Mega Regions, converging to form a Mega Corridor, distinguished by the following features>>>>

World class urban infrastructures and facilities Integrated Infrastructure of Fiber

Telecommunications, Green Roads, Clean Energy , Intelligent Transportation, and Ubiquitous Mobile Networks

Sustainable Urban and Rural Redevelopment Smart Cities, Eco Communities, Smart Property

Developments, Cultural Sustainable Settlements Smart Regions, Region Clusters and Mega Corridors Industrial Innovation Parks, Business Clusters,

Knowledge Parks, Science & Technology Parks, Health Parks, Biomedical Parks, Agriculture Technology Parks, Energy Parks, Server Farms, Eco Farms, ICT Parks

International Airport and/or Seaport Development Parks (Free Economic Zone, Intercontinental Logistics Centers, Smart Commerce & Trade Centers)

Environmental Protection Projects and Eco Parks Green Transportation Multimodal Networks

smartness if it has a “City Intelligence” or “Communal e-Brains”, embodied as the I-City Intelligent Management Platform >>>

The i-Capital Governance Platform is to collect data from smart devices and sensors embedded

in the streets and roadways, power and water grids, facilities and buildings and other assets and systems,

to share data via smart communications networks, wired, wireless and mobile, using smart software

to deliver intelligent information and services: online taxes and permits, utility bills, payments, GIS data on assets, utilities and facilities (underground cables, pipes, water mains), transit services, traffic maps, crime reports, emergency warnings, cultural events, social services, etc.Often the sustainability and smartness of a city is partially defined by 6 isolated index categories, with numerous indicators and variables:

Smart Economy Brookings Institute Global Metro Monitor and Ocean Tomo’s Inventive Cities.

Smart Environment: Siemens Green City Index; Clean Tech Index; Corporate Knights’ Canadian Sustainable Cities.

Smart Governance: E-Governance Institute’s 2011 rankings (not yet public); Data Catalogs; Digital Cities Survey.

The EU Smart Cities and Communities Initiative is part of the proposal on a coming framework programme to fund research & innovation, Horizon 2020, under “inclusive societies” or “Industrial Leadership and Societal Challenges”.

Horizon 2014-2020 is the financial instrument implementing the Innovation Union, a Europe 2020 flagship initiative aimed at securing Europe's global competitiveness, with an €80 billion budget, to create new growth and jobs in Europe.

Horizon 2020 provides a single set of rules, combining all research and innovation funding of the Framework Programmes for Research and Technical Development, the Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme (CIP) and the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT).

The proposed support for research and innovation under Horizon 2020 will: Strengthen the EU’s position in science with a budget of € 24 598 million to boost top-level

research in Europe, including an increase in funding of 77% for the European Research Council (ERC).

Strengthen industrial leadership in innovation € 17 938 million, including major investment in key technologies, better access to capital and support for SMEs.

Provide € 31 748 million to address climate change, developing sustainable transport and mobility, making renewable energy more affordable, ensuring food safety and security, or coping with the challenge of an ageing population.

Multi-Annual Financial Framework, Multi-Annual Financial Framework, MFF, to deliver the Europe 2020 strategy. Heading 1: Smart and Inclusive Growth, 490.908 (EUR million in 2011 prices); H2: Sustainable Growth, Natural Resources, 382.927; H3: Security and Citizenship, 18.535; H4: Global Europe, 70.000; H5: Administration, 62.629. Total Commitment Appropriations, 1.025.000, 1,05% of GNI. Total Outside MAFF, 58.316 In the design of the next MFF, the Commission has implemented the principles it outlined in the 2010 budget review focusing

on: delivering key policy priorities; EU added value; impacts and results; delivering mutual benefits across the European Union; Major hallmarks of the next set of financial programmes and instruments will be a focus on results, increased use of

conditionality, the simplification of delivery and leveraging investment by innovative financial instruments ; The Commission proposes to allocate €80 billion for the 2014-2020 period for the Common Strategic Framework for Research

and Innovation, Horizon 2020 In all, the Commission proposes to allocate €376 billion for the 2014-2020 period for spending in cohesion policy instruments

for Convergence regions, Transition regions, Competitiveness regions, Territorial cooperation. Cohesion Policy provides the necessary investment framework and delivery system to deliver the Europe 2020 objectives.

More cities, national governments, international organizations and transnational corporations are increasingly viewing the smart city concept as the base of sustainable growth, and the best solution for the challenges of world’s urbanization.

China’s future “smart cities” are to become a main driver of its urbanization process, with 2 trillion yuan ($322 billion) set to allocated to more than 600 cities nationwide.

The Japanese Government created a “FutureCity” with a goal to “construct sustainable cities with superior environmental technologies, core infrastructure and resilience all over the world…to advance the “Future City” model of urban planning with state-of-the-art environmental sustainability, strong disaster resilience and superb livability”.

Russia’s expenses just for its first intelligent model community (Skolkovo Innovation Center) might exceed $15 billion, not mentioning it’s planned multibillion transportation infrastructure projects.

Currently, there are thousands of cities and communities trying to apply various smart technologies and sustainable solutions for improving the quality of communal environment, infrastructure, life and governance.

On top of this, a number of innovative urban projects ab novo are currently being carried out around the globe in order to discover a core prototype model for future communities.

In its top 10 Mega Trends, Frost & Sullivan predicts that over 40 Global Cities to be SMART Cities in 2020 - More than 50% of Smart cities of 2025 will be from Europe and North America, and China and India to see over 50 New “Sustainable” Cities (Top 20 Mega Trends and Their Impact on Business, Cultures and Society).

EU is planning 20 - 25 lighthouse projects, each with 6-10 cities, as well as an Urban Development Platform of 300 cities within CFS Funds 2014-2020 (about 5% of the ERDF resources).

Long time being a global leader in advancing sustainable communities and smart intelligent cities, the EU might lose its leading position allocating about $ 20-30 billion, added with a symbolic amount of Euro 200 million for the smart city program for next 2014-2015 under the 80 billion Euro Research Framework Program, Horizon 2020.

In addition, the latest smart city call for proposals under FP7 (on 19 July 2012 with a total budget of € 375 million) virtually failed: 4 proposals selected, 3 on reserve list (out of 15 submitted), having little to do with smart city integrated solutions...

It all looks that the EC has to secure a comparable funding with China, getting it from investment banks , MFF, and Horizon 2020 (by redistributing its huge allocations to ERC).
