<b>Smart Cities</b>: Mission Accomplished Or Promise Unfulfilled?

Smart Cities: Mission Accomplished Or Promise Unfulfilled? The monsoon season is the best time to gauge a city. You instantly get a complete picture — the good, the bad and the ugly. If you are in Mumbai, you get a taste of all three, from poor housekeeping to infrastructure deficits. Come to think of it, only some parts of Mumbai — Marine Drive, Peddar Road and Nepean Sea Road — are clean as a whistle. The rest of the city is an eyesore: dirty, filthy, strewn with garbage, accompanied by a constant stench and perennial waterlogging in several pockets. Not to mention the open gutters. Slums, which occupy nearly 24% of Mumbai's land area, house more than 50% of its population. For years, successive chief ministers of Maharashtra promised to transform Mumbai into another Shanghai. We are still light-years away from Shanghai. Mumbai is deteriorating and degenerating on almost every front. Every time a plane lands or takes off, the aerial view is depressing — endless stretches of blue plastic sheets covering slum settlements. It is certainly not a pretty picture. Greening the Future 23 Jul 2026 - Vol 05 | Issue 30 Securing a sustainable India The international media loves such images — anything that portrays India in a poor light. If the country's so-called financial capital continues to deteriorate and hit new lows every year, what must the situation be like in other Indian cities? More importantly, how successful has PM Narendra Modi's Smart Cities Mission been? When PM Modi announced the scheme, it dominated front pages for months. But over time, it appeared to peter out and virtually disappeared from the media's radar. So, I did a bit of digging and discovered that the government has actually covered considerable ground. It even released a detailed note marking

Ghana is focused on the delivery of the new urban agenda – Rita Naa Odolley Sowah

Ghana’s Deputy Minister of Local Government, Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs, Rita Naa Odolley Sowah (MP), has reiterated the country’s commitment and focus towards accelerating delivery of the New Urban Agenda. According to the Deputy Minister, Ghana has prioritized four key actions towards realizing the attainment of the New Urban Agenda. These priority actions, according to her, include scaling affordable and inclusive housing through implementation of the 2024 Housing Profile recommendations and the National Slum Upgrading and Prevention Strategy, as well as strengthening integrated urban development and spatial planning through the National Urban Policy (2026-2035). The other priority areas are the expansion of urban infrastructure and local economic development through initiatives such as the Ghana Secondary Cities Support Programme, the Greater Accra Resilience and Integrated Development (GARID) Project, the Smart SDGs Programme, and the Sustainable Cities Programme. She said the country is also advancing climate-resilient and environmentally sustainable cities while strengthening urban governance, institutional capacity, coordination, and data systems, including the operationalisation of a Ghana Urban Observatory. The Deputy Minister outlined the priority areas when she addressed the United Nations General Assembly High Level Political Forum at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, United States, on behalf of the sector minister, Hon Ahmed Ibrahim. Hon Odolley Sowah observed that the High-Level Meeting was an important milestone in accelerating implementation of the New Urban Agenda towards 2036, and commend the United Nations for convening the platform to review progress, identify gaps, and renew global commitment at the midpoint of the initiative. She highlighted the steady progress Ghana has made over the past decade, through strong national leadership, decentralised governance, and evidence-based planning led by the National Development Planning Commission and the Ministry of Local Government, Chieftaincy and Religious Affairs. She said Ghana had strengthened urban governance, economic productivity, and institutional performance

urban‑development experiments in Xiong'an and Egypt's New Capital

Illustration: Xia Qing/GT Scrolling through socialâmedia travel content this summer, I recently stumbled upon a "futuristic city" video. The second I clicked on it, two brand-new cities popped up side by side. One is Xiong'an New Area in North China, where self-driving cars glide through neighborhoods on the North China Plain, with smart traffic lights that seem to think for themselves. The other is Egypt's New Capital - a dazzling skyline of glass towers rising from the endless desert sands, resembling a sciâfi vision brought to realâlife reality. Neither location held inherent naturalâresource advantages. Xiong'an emerged from quiet, unremarkable farmland with no major rivers or coastline. Egypt's New Capital rose from windswept sands of the North African desert. Over seven thousand kilometers apart, these two radically different places are proving the same powerful point: The urban blueprints for futureâoriented cities are increasingly being written from entirely blank land, rather than upgrading overâburdened historic metropolitan centers. The driving pressures behind both projects stem from identical longâstanding urbanâdilemmas troubling their respective capital hubs. Xiong'an New Area is designed to relieve functions that are non-essential to Beijing's role as the national capital and advance the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. Egypt's New Capital is created specifically to relieve Cairo's crippling congestion and overcrowding and boost economic development. To break ageâold urban pitfalls, China started from scratch to build a city on the vast, empty North China Plain, while Egypt began rising one from the dunes of the Sahara, as a core pillar of Egypt Vision 2030. Almost in perfect sync, the two countries launched parallel experiments in building the cities of tomorrow. Just nine years ago, Xiong'an was nothing but endless farmland. Today, it has rapidly matured into a threeâtiered city framework comprising aboveâground living spaces, underground utility tunnels, and a cloudâbased

Germany LED Street Light Drivers

Germany LED Street Light Drivers Market 2026 Analysis and Forecast to 2035 Executive Summary Key Findings - Germany’s LED street light driver market is structurally import-dependent, with domestic assembly and design capabilities concentrated among a small number of mid-sized electronics specialists; over 60-70% of driver modules by value are sourced from supply chains in East Asia, primarily China and Taiwan. - Replacement-driven demand accounts for an estimated 55-65% of annual unit shipments, as German municipalities accelerate the retrofit of legacy high-pressure sodium and metal-halide luminaires to LED systems under energy-efficiency mandates and carbon-neutrality targets for public lighting. - Price pressure is intensifying: standard-grade constant-current drivers for 50-100 W luminaires have seen average procurement prices decline by 15-25% since 2021, though premium programmable drivers with DALI-2 or Zhaga-D4i compliance command a 40-60% price premium and are gaining share in new installations. Market Trends - Smart-city integration is reshaping driver specifications: demand for networked, addressable drivers with power-line communication or wireless interfaces (NB-IoT, LoRaWAN) is growing at an estimated 12-18% annually, driven by municipal tenders requiring remote dimming and fault monitoring. - Energy cost sensitivity is accelerating the shift toward higher-efficiency drivers: German electricity prices for public lighting operators rose by approximately 30-40% between 2021 and 2025, making every percentage point of driver efficiency economically significant over a 10-15 year luminaire lifespan. - Supply chain diversification is emerging as a strategic priority: German distributors and OEMs are increasingly qualifying driver suppliers from Central and Eastern Europe (Poland, Czech Republic) and Turkey to reduce lead-time risk and logistics exposure from Asia, though volumes remain below 15-20% of total supply. Key Challenges - Component availability and lead-time volatility persist for specialized power semiconductors and electrolytic capacitors rated for extended lifetimes (100,000+ hours at high ambient temperatures), causing intermittent supply bottlenecks that delay municipal lighting

Can Tho on its journey to realizing a <b>smart city</b>.

According to the Can Tho City Department of Construction, the city currently has 44 urban areas, including 5 Type II urban areas and 39 Type III urban areas. According to the planning period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2050, Can Tho City is envisioned as a core urban area deeply rooted in the riverine culture of the Mekong Delta, developing according to a green and smart city model. The goal is that by 2030, Can Tho's urban system will meet the criteria of a Type I urban area throughout the city, with 9 urban areas including: Can Tho city center, O Mon, Thot Not, Soc Trang, Vi Thanh, Nga Bay, Nga Nam, Long My, and Vinh Chau. Regarding this direction, Mr. Mai Van Tan, Director of the Department of Construction of Can Tho City, commented: This is a favorable condition for Can Tho to form a smart city model of regional significance in the Mekong Delta. However, this process also requires innovation in management thinking, increased application of science and technology, and digital transformation in all urban development tasks. Through this, the city will not only keep pace with the national urban development trends but also operate effectively in the new development phase with greater space, population size, and potential. To concretize the national strategic breakthrough on the development of science, technology, innovation, and digital transformation in accordance with Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW and Decree No. 269/2025/ND-CP into local practice in the new period, Can Tho City is developing the "Smart City Project for Can Tho City in the period 2026-2030, with a vision to 2040," linking infrastructure modernization and the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in governance, management, and services for citizens and businesses, aiming towards digital and green transformation.

Unlocking the potential of AI to create <b>sustainable cities</b>.

AI is increasingly becoming a powerful tool for building smart cities in Vietnam by supporting the development of integrated shared data warehouses, digital platforms, security monitoring, and the automation of public administrative services. In particular, the Law on Artificial Intelligence (Law No. 134/2025/QH15), passed by the National Assembly on December 10, 2025, has established a comprehensive legal framework for the research, development, provision, deployment, and use of this technology. In its smart city development plan, Can Tho City has identified AI as a tool and innovation as the driving force for sustainable development. At the recent symposium on "Smart City Development in Can Tho," experts presented several key solutions for the city to effectively unlock this potential. According to Dr. Christopher Han, Director of Innovation Strategy at the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City, for AI to maximize its power at optimal cost and scale, the system requires high-quality data and must be deployed through a rigorous process. This process requires human-centered design, starting with discovering the right problem, conducting in-depth research, iterative design, and finally scaling up. “The ultimate goal of using technology is to serve humanity. Understanding the real-world challenges of the community is the solid foundation for leveraging AI to create groundbreaking and sustainable solutions,” emphasized Dr. Christopher Han. In the context of the rapid development of digital technology and AI, humanity faces a major challenge in mastering technology. According to Dr. Manfredo Manfredini of the University of Auckland (New Zealand), the gap between the superior processing power of AI systems and the ability of humans to utilize them is becoming increasingly apparent. This requires urban managers and education systems to quickly change their mindset: It's not enough to simply train users to passively use the technology; instead, focus must be placed on enhancing their ability

Shaping <b>smart</b>, modern <b>cities</b> with their own unique identity.

- With the initial foundation of a smart city already in place, the city's development orientation in the coming period should focus on four key areas. Firstly, priority should be given to completing the shared data platform and the Smart City Monitoring and Operating Center (IOC) based on an integrated governance model, connecting various departments and agencies. Secondly, the city should accelerate the completion of remaining criteria, with particular emphasis on GIS, BIM, digital twin, artificial intelligence (AI), and open data. Thirdly, the city needs to select several pilot areas for a new generation smart city model, mobilizing public-private partnerships to gain experience and gradually expand it. Finally, leveraging its central role, Can Tho should not only aim to shape a regional smart city model but also be ready to share data and provide strong support to neighboring localities in governance and administration. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Trinh TuAnh , Director of the Institute of Smart Cities and Management, University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City: Establishing a space for testing innovation. - During the remainder of 2026, the city needs to outline a comprehensive picture to assess the current situation, identify its core identity, and establish a co-creation network to change community mindsets. In 2027, it will activate initiatives to address pressing issues such as flooding and pollution, with the collaboration of research institutions, universities, and businesses. In the 2028-2029 period, Can Tho needs to perfect its ecosystem to replicate successful models, aiming to become a regional innovation hub. This will serve as the foundation for the city to begin developing a sustainable development plan for the next phase in 2030. To ensure the strategy remains more than just on paper, the city needs to establish innovation testing spaces such as Living Labs and Sandboxes. Regarding finances, the key to
