Digital solutions and green transition go hand in hand. Digitization permeates all of ElectriCITY’s projects.
Think Digital
We are generally proficient with digitalization in small things, such as smartphones, bookkeeping, and remote meetings. However, we have yet to succeed on a larger scale with systems like transportation, energy, and property management. It is within these large-scale systems that the challenges are the greatest — but so is the potential. Some sectors, including real estate and energy, still hold significant untapped digital potential. This creates challenges but also reveals immense opportunities.
Digitalization is a crucial factor in the climate transition. According to the World Economic Forum, digitalization has the potential to reduce global emissions by 20 percent. In the EU, the concept of the twin transition has been established, referring to the green transition and the digital transition and how these two parallel shifts interact, reinforce, and influence one another.
Digital future
Digitalization runs as a common thread through all of ElectriCITY’s projects, from the digitalization of energy and property systems to transportation and the circular economy. Through digital technology, we can store information and data that can be used in environmental and sustainability projects and shared among users. Digitalization is both a mindset and a forward-looking perspective that will permeate everything in our society.
Visualize — More
Greenovation Twin is an open digital twin designed to enhance understanding of how digital twins can contribute to more sustainable urban development.
By visualizing and communicating the city’s systems within a digital twin, data and information can be displayed in an understandable way. Urban planning processes require numerous complex assessments, and the twin streamlines this work, serving as a powerful tool for simulating and exploring future scenarios.
Focus Areas in Digitalization
• Further develop the foundation for an open platform for energy data and services targeted at energy communities and property owners.
• Participate in the work of the Urban Twin Transition Center — an initiative led by the Internet Foundation.
• Strengthen collaboration among stakeholders within the Stockholm Green Innovation District to promote
cooperation and innovation, and to enable more efficient information sharing and knowledge transfer.
