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

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

Atos joins AI4Cities, a a few-year EU-funded task which aims to aid six European metropolitan areas and regions accelerate their changeover in direction of carbon neutrality. This contains: Helsinki (Finland), Amsterdam (Netherlands), Copenhagen (Denmark), Paris Area (France), Stravanger (Norway) and Tallin (Estonia). The synthetic intelligence (AI) options will finally contribute to the reduction of CO2 in the locations of mobility and power, two domains dependable for 82{79e59ee6e2f5cf570628ed7ac4055bef3419265de010b59461d891d43fac5627} of all greenhouse gasoline emissions in European metropolitan areas.

Atos has been picked for the Period 1 of AI4Cities: the pre-professional procurement (PCP) system that challenges know-how providers in the six metropolitan areas and regions to style and design, carry out and exam impressive synthetic intelligence options aiding them to modernize public sector products and services and solve societal crucial challenges. The picked providers will, with synthetic intelligence: examine travel patterns to style and design extra effective routes and schedules, contributing to a substantially smaller environmental footprint improve the use of electrical auto charging locations by providing tips based on synthetic intelligence and reduce the time to appraise, plan and advertise investments (e.g. for setting up renovation). In addition, providers will perform to improve the usage and power effectiveness in properties and increase the use of community renewable electrical power by way of need administration, using properties as distributed thermal power storage, among other options. The whole funding for this task, which will be divided among the picked suppliers throughout the total PCP system, is four.six million euros.

Atos will be dependable for creating products and services by way of the answer termed “AI4GreenBuildings” which utilizes synthetic intelligence to strengthen the power overall performance of properties and its effect in phrases of greenhouse gasoline emissions, by way of a management suite that monitors the setting up adaptable power supply (i.e. electrical power, heating , air flow, air conditioning, drinking water) and use in properties. In parallel, the answer will aid municipal final decision-makers to build smarter and extra helpful streamlined procedures. The answer will also increase citizen consciousness on how their actions can effect power usage and CO2 emissions.

“AI4GreenBuildings” proposes an impressive answer to empower metropolitan areas and their citizens, letting them to control all the power sources of properties, many thanks to an impressive Information and facts and Conversation Engineering (ICT) platform, that enables interoperability and integration of products (e.g. meters, sensors, etc.) for effective era, storage and usage administration specially created for properties, properties, and even overall neighborhoods and communities. Its open up, common, and adaptable style and design opens the door to potential scalability, replicability, collaboration, and integration of external communities in a simple way.

Atos will use machine studying (ML) types to exploit the collected info and to build AI-driven products and services to improve power useful resource administration and therefore reduce general CO2 emissions.

“We are extremely proud to perform on aiding supply a sustainable modern society withAI4Cities, which is the best framework to exam Atos’s most impressive options for improving power effectiveness in metropolitan areas, with the important technological scope and the ample geographic dimension to get impactful and visible results in quite a few massive metropolitan areas of Europe”, mentioned Javier Valiño, Head of the Energy, Climate and Decarbonization Unit of the R&D section of Atos Iberia.

Atos has just lately confirmed its posture as the leader of decarbonized and safe electronic, pushed by its ambition to arrive at web-zero by 2028 and, by providing shoppers with the launch of the most in depth, close-to-close decarbonization portfolio on the market place: Url.

AI4cities is created up of quite a few multidisciplinary associates from international locations these kinds of as France, the Netherlands, Estonia, Denmark, Norway and Spain among some others.
