Smart Green City in english
In its Smart Green City program, Konstanz collaborates with partners to develop and improve pilot projects, challenging the following questions:
• How can we maintain and improve urban living?
• How can we save energy and use it wisely and efficiently?
• How can we ensure inclusive participation from all parts of society?
Our vision is to evolve into a digitally advanced and sustainable city by integrating intelligent technologies.
Therefore, Konstanz independently manages diverse digitisation projects, prioritising local data and expertise over corporate influence.
Smart Green City is funded by the Federal Ministry for Housing, Urban Development and Building. The program aims to demonstrate that German cities are becoming role models for sustainable and connected urban environments
