THE FIRST CARBON NEUTRAL CAPITAL BY 2025 Carbon emissions must be reduced by 1.2 mio tons within the next 13 years A surplus of green energy must be produced to offset the emissions that will continue (ex. wind mills) Investments in ITS and intelligent street lighting (60 Mio. USD)
More Copenhageners Less carbon emission
ITS programme Year 2025 Reduce CO 2 emissions by 25.000 ton per year Utilize ITS to support Copenhagen s climate goals Reduce congestion by a smarter and greener traffic management for all modes of traffic
All around the world, big cities are growing. This increases the pressure on the urban space. The challenge of handling traffic and at the same time being a sustainable and healthy city requires innovative thinking and new solutions
A connected system of green transport modes Services for a smart and green transport choice New Technology (ITS) Efficient and green use of infrastructure and urban space Physical environment which support a vibrant urban life
Traffic Management Plan Ensure handling of traffic dilemmas Ensure a more optimum use of road capacity Clarify expectations as to which service the City can provide Introduce service goals for all modes of traffic Need for prioritization!

Smart Projects Work with innovation or technology based growth Work with publicprivate partnerships Solve more than one problem
Public-Private Innovation (PPI) - ITS solutions for sustainable mobility 15 companies 2 universities 8 cross disciplinary teams
Merge existing solutions to new innovative concepts - Intelligent street light to improve traffic safety
Streets as laboratories - Dynamic urban space The tests with the municipality and the users was very interesting, as it gave us a good review of users need to help us adjust our concept and to better communicate on it Company participating in PPI
Real time data for handling traffic at big events When you do live test you always discover what you should have done different. The Copenhagen project certainly inspired us to go in depth with new research topics Technical University of Denmark 23
