From smart cities to energy management, Light+Building Autumn Edition 2022 will focus on the future

NEW DELHI - April 14, 2022 - PRLog -- The advancement of sustainable energy generation, the reduction of consumption in smart buildings, and the growth of electromobility are key components to a complete energy turnaround by 2030. The issue of energy supply has taken on a whole new immediacy as a consequence of increasing gas and oil prices, as well as the need to guarantee the supply of raw materials. At Light + Building, concepts for the networked and intelligent city of the future – the smart city – already exist. The secure and effective networking of people, places, and infrastructure is at its core.

The trend in recent years has been toward urbanization. Due to limited city space, it's required to utilize it to its full potential. Sustainable expansions to buildings in timber construction, for example, are being used to offer more living space. The electrification and digitization of infrastructure, on the other hand, provide the foundation for smart cities and hence a reliable and scalable energy supply. Once this step is completed, the cost-effective use of wind and sun as sustainable energy sources (smart grids) as well as sector coupling will be enabled.

Key factor – Innovation at Light + Building 2022
Smart city concepts rely heavily on technological advancements and breakthroughs. They provide fundamentally new approaches that are currently topical in society and politics. For example, the advent of the lithium-ion battery aided the development of sustainable electromobility. Wind and sun as renewable energies can only be used economically if technological excellence in the generation, transmission, and distribution ("smart grid") is achieved. Of central importance here is the further development of information and communication technology (https://buildingandinteriors.com/tags/technology-2/) to ensure secure and efficient networking. The "final development" of a smart city will connect people, places, and infrastructures. The overall stronger networking and data collecting of technological trades within buildings is already a reality today.

Other topics to be discussed:
Smart Buildings – The foundation of Smart City
Smart Lighting – A cornerstone for Energy Saving
Smart Mobility with e-charging infrastructure

The Messe Frankfurt Exhibition Centre will host the Light + Building Autumn Edition from October 2 to 6, 2022. Light + Building Digital Extension will accompany the main event from October 2 to 14, 2022.
