Panasonic will buid a ‘Sustainable Smart Town’ in Japan by 2014

Panasonic city

Japan is still recovering from the earthquake in relation to suffering, but it’s not going to stop Sony and eight partners in advancing its own reconstruction effort that could reshape the way of the future cities and communities are built. Part demonstration initiative and partial recovery project are Panasonic and friends turning the footprint of one of the company’s former factory site in a 47-acre, 1,000-home”Smart City”with energy and eco-conscious development considerations.

But stripped of the idea here isn’t a city to the minimum energy consumption. Rather, the construction”Fujisawa Sustainable Smart Town”- Fujisawa City in Kanagawa Prefecture is the largest conurbation is here - with the next generation of electricity and energy-efficient infrastructure from the ground up, to show companies how green can plan to be a city when different technologies work together and about each other in harmony.

As such, I Fujisawa SST’t be seen, but must be home, never before, the most modern technology to a number of common green tech staples that despite the availability, are expensive to retrofit older buildings and in cities.

For example, every roof with modern solar cell technology that runs the house and knock home untapped energy in an accumulator-based built. The transport infrastructure will be designed with electric cars. Networked sensors to see around the city things such as public lighting, ensuring wattage go player’t by a local smart grid waste.

Basically designed Fujisawa SST as bottom-up approach to improving energy efficiency - a green village built from the ground up with modern environmental technology instead of less efficient older tech. Panasonic wants to use it as a template for other major institutions in Japan and elsewhere. If all goes as planned, Fujisawa SST begin receiving end of March 2014 and residents filled their house in 2018.
