Blue cities

Blue opens up new global markets for the best-performing, scalable solutions by rapidly increasing their visibility and adoption. Blue will advance solutions that deliver high-performing financial growth, are technically superior and enable platform-scale interoperability throughout the world.

An example: smart mobility

In the Netherlands, the strategy of a collective footing has led to a standardized, interoperable and brand independent infrastructure for electric vehicles. Dutch utilities cooperated with solution providers to create a standardized electric charging infrastructure for all electric car brands with an open business model for operators of charging stations.

What about the government?

The central government’s role was limited to creating the right conditions. Clean air political agendas resulted in tax breaks and providing specific parking space for electric vehicles locally.

Implementing smart city solutions, smart application of modern technology combined with physical infrastructure, should lead to cost reductions and improvement of public services, thus resulting in a higher standard of living.

The smart mobility case has become a model operating process that Blue aims to replicate across other industries.
