Smart City

With a rapidly growing urbanization, where 70% of the global population will live in or around cities in 2050, there is an urgent need for smarter solutions.

A smart city is a city that uses advanced technology to improve the quality of life for its residents and make the city more liveable, efficient and sustainable.

A smart city is a place where traditional networks and services are made more efficient with the use of digital solutions for the benefit of its inhabitants and business.

A smart city goes beyond the use of digital technologies for better resource use and less emissions. It means smarter urban transport networks, upgraded water supply and waste disposal facilities and more efficient ways to light and heat buildings. It also means a more interactive and responsive city administration, safer public spaces and meeting the needs of an ageing population.

Key benefits of using SenArch

Off-grid wireless sensor connectivity anywhere.
Faster and easier installation due to no cabling.
Deployment flexibility due to the system modularity.
Remote device management reduces operational complexity.
Going Solar means lower costs and greener operation.

SenArch’s off-grid and solar-powered LoRaWAN gateway heralds a new era for Smart Cities, offering a myriad of benefits. Firstly, its utilization of solar energy ensures uninterrupted functionality, guaranteeing constant connectivity even in areas lacking reliable power infrastructure. This resilience is crucial for maintaining essential services and data transmission, facilitating smoother urban operations. Moreover, the LoRaWAN compatibility extends the reach of the network, enabling efficient communication with IoT devices across vast urban landscapes.

The gateway’s off-grid nature not only enhances reliability but also promotes sustainability, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and decreasing carbon emissions. This eco-friendly approach aligns with the growing global focus on environmental conservation.

Furthermore, SenArch’s gateway empowers cities to implement a diverse range of smart solutions, from intelligent waste management to traffic optimization, enhancing overall efficiency and quality of life for residents. By providing a robust infrastructure for data collection and analysis, it enables informed decision-making and proactive management of urban resources.

In essence, SenArch’s off-grid and solar-powered LoRaWAN gateway represents a cornerstone of the smart city revolution, fostering sustainability, resilience, and innovation in urban development.

Aarhus Municipality

“The SenArch solar IoT gateway solution can help enable IOT solutions, which we in Aarhus Municipality currently find it difficult to carry out. The scope for implementing IOT solutions will thus improve, then the range of applications becomes greater. With the data collected in this project, it will be possible to optimize the booking system for shelters, as there will be greater knowledge of the real use of shelters and not just where often they are booked. In this way, it will be possible to optimize the use of current shelters.

These data will be able to be used in decision-making about rules in the area and possibly establishing new ones in shelter areas.

The project will also be able to contribute to the Fleetoptimizer project, since sending location data from the municipality’s cars is not possible in some places, as there is no signal.”
