Lucy Han of ABB takes us inside a new ‘smart community’ near the Swedish capital of Stockholm, an example of how new advances in energy management and people-focused technology are helping residents directly manage their carbon footprint – while enjoying the very best of modern community living.
Reducing energy costs is now a leading concern for European residents. Modern dwellers also want better carbon credentials combined with smart technology and home solutions that offer ease of use, access, and control so they can enjoy the very best of energy-smart, high-tech living.
As industrial systems are being digitalised and decarbonised as part of the global clean energy transition, so are residential buildings being transformed. This ushers in a new era of connected communities populated by eco-savvy residents who want to maximise their use of self-generated energy and lead more meaningful lives through engagement with smart technology.
