挑战
A regional initiative funded by the North East Regional Improvement and Efficiency Partnership (RIEP) aimed to optimize the efficiency of waste collection routes using RouteSmart software. The focus was on reducing vehicle and fuel usage through route reconfiguration, maximizing vehicle payloads, and reducing collection costs. Of the 12 authorities in the North East UK, 11 participated in this initiative. Several authorities reduced their working week to four days, allowing vehicles to be utilized elsewhere, and introduced zonal working to improve service efficiency and reliability. In some cases, there was integration of commercial waste collection with household waste, ensuring that tonnages collected per route were maximized and balanced across the routes.
关于客户
The North East UK consists of 12 independent waste management authorities responsible for waste collection and disposal services. These authorities face significant challenges due to reduced resources and high service expectations. They aim to deliver budget efficiencies while protecting and enhancing public services. The regional initiative funded by the North East Regional Improvement and Efficiency Partnership (RIEP) aimed to optimize waste collection routes using RouteSmart software. The focus was on reducing vehicle and fuel usage, maximizing vehicle payloads, and reducing collection costs. Eleven of the 12 authorities participated in this initiative, reporting significant benefits.
解决方案
RouteSmart software was implemented to optimize waste collection routes, reduce vehicle and fuel usage, and maximize vehicle payloads. The software allowed for route reconfiguration, leading to significant cost savings. Several authorities reduced their working week to four days, allowing vehicles to be utilized elsewhere, and introduced zonal working to improve service efficiency and reliability. In some cases, commercial waste collection was integrated with household waste collection, ensuring that tonnages collected per route were maximized and balanced. The initiative led to significant cost savings and improved customer satisfaction.

Case Study
Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.

Case Study
Smart Street Light Network (Copenhagen)
Key stakeholders are taking a comprehensive approach to rethinking smart city innovation. City leaders have collaborated through partnerships involving government, research institutions and solution providers. The Copenhagen Solutions Lab is one of the leading organizations at the forefront of this movement. By bringing together manufacturers with municipal buyers, the Copenhagen Solutions Lab has catalyzed the development and deployment of next-generation smart city innovations. Copenhagen is leveraging this unique approach to accelerate the implementation of smart city solutions. One of the primary focus areas is LED street lighting.

Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.

China Mobile Smart Parking
Smart Parking, powered by NB-IoT technology, is making it easier for drivers to find free parking spots. Cities can better manage their parking assets and maximize the revenue available to them as a result. Drivers searching for parking create congestion and pollution by circling and hunting for available parking. Smart Parking services are able to significantly ease these problems by guiding a driver directly to a parking space.

Barcelona Case Study
Barcelona’s heavy traffic and its associated high levels of pollution were the primary factors that motivated some companies and universities to work on strategies for improving traffic in the city centre. Bitcarrier is one of the technologies involved in the In4Mo Project, whose main objective is to develop the applications that form the core of smart mobility, one of the fundamental pillars of the smart city concept.
