Atos joins AI4Cities, the European project to accelerate the transition of cities to carbon neutrality

Madrid (Spain), Paris (France) – June 9, 2021

Atos joins AI4Cities, a a few-12 months EU-funded challenge which aims to enable 6 European cities and areas speed up their changeover toward carbon neutrality. This features: Helsinki (Finland), Amsterdam (Netherlands), Copenhagen (Denmark), Paris Location (France), Stravanger (Norway) and Tallin (Estonia). The artificial intelligence (AI) options will in the end contribute to the reduction of CO2 in the spots of mobility and strength, two domains liable for eighty two% of all greenhouse gasoline emissions in European cities.

Atos has been chosen for the Section one of AI4Cities: the pre-business procurement (PCP) procedure that difficulties know-how corporations in the 6 cities and areas to design and style, implement and check modern artificial intelligence options supporting them to modernize general public sector products and services and solve societal important difficulties. The chosen corporations will, with artificial intelligence: evaluate travel designs to design and style much more economical routes and schedules, contributing to a substantially smaller environmental footprint improve the use of electrical auto charging destinations by delivering suggestions dependent on artificial intelligence and cut down the time to evaluate, strategy and market investments (e.g. for building renovation). In addition, corporations will get the job done to improve the use and strength efficiency in buildings and maximize the use of regional renewable electricity by way of need management, working with buildings as dispersed thermal strength storage, amid other options. The complete funding for this challenge, which will be divided amid the chosen suppliers during the whole PCP procedure, is four.six million euros.

Atos will be liable for acquiring products and services by way of the resolution identified as “AI4GreenBuildings” which utilizes artificial intelligence to enhance the strength performance of buildings and its effect in conditions of greenhouse gasoline emissions, by way of a management suite that screens the building flexible strength offer (i.e. electricity, heating , air flow, air conditioning, water) and utilization in buildings. In parallel, the resolution will enable municipal choice-makers to create smarter and much more effective streamlined guidelines. The resolution will also increase citizen recognition on how their actions can effect strength use and CO2 emissions.

AI4GreenBuildings” proposes an modern resolution to empower cities and their citizens, making it possible for them to take care of all the strength means of buildings, thanks to an modern Details and Communication Know-how (ICT) platform, that allows interoperability and integration of products (e.g. meters, sensors, and so forth.) for economical generation, storage and use management specifically built for properties, buildings, and even whole neighborhoods and communities. Its open up, standard, and flexible design and style opens the door to long term scalability, replicability, collaboration, and integration of external communities in a basic way.

Atos will use machine discovering (ML) styles to exploit the collected info and to create AI-run products and services to improve strength useful resource management and as a result cut down all round CO2 emissions.

We are pretty happy to get the job done on supporting provide a sustainable culture withAI4Cities, which is the best framework to check Atos’s most modern options for increasing strength efficiency in cities, with the necessary specialized scope and the ample geographic dimension to get impactful and obvious success in various large cities of Europe”, reported Javier Valiño, Head of the Vitality, Local climate and Decarbonization Unit of the R&D office of Atos Iberia.

Atos has not long ago confirmed its posture as the chief of decarbonized and safe digital, driven by its ambition to get to web-zero by 2028 and, by delivering shoppers with the launch of the most in depth, finish-to-finish decarbonization portfolio on the current market: Connection.

AI4cities is designed up of various multidisciplinary associates from countries these types of as France, the Netherlands, Estonia, Denmark, Norway and Spain amid some others.
