Abstract

Today�s cities are constantly balancing the need to provide valuable services to their communities, while at the same time face the demand to reduce the cost of operations and maintenance of their infrastructure. The future of the smart city is explicitly tied to having a community based, economically extendable network. These networks are critical for expanding safety and security solutions, enabling other community services as well as leveraging existing infrastructure to support energy efficiency initiatives. The combination of solar energy and electric vehicle (EV) charging is the key in drastically reducing our dependence on fossil fuels. Electricity comes from a variety of sources and it�s crucial that electric vehicles will be powered by renewables. Electric cars are becoming immensely popular and coming years we expect nearly anyone who owns a solar energy system will install a solar charging station at its home This paper discusses the value of a Smart City Solutions platform and the capabilities of such an integrated platform in achieving: (1) Energy efficient, sustainable, net zero energy streetlight networks. (2) Self-fund smart city projects. (3) Enhance public safety. (4) Strengthen municipal resilience. (5) Electric vehicle (EV) Charging.
