SMART CITIES - SUSTAINABLE CITIES
THE SHORTEST DEFINITION OF SMART CITY A city that uses ICT to enhance its livability, workability, and sustainability. (Smart Cities Council, 2015)
SMART AND SUSTAINABLE CITY An innovative city that uses information and communication technologies (ICTs) and other means to improve quality of life, the efficiency of urban operations and services, and competitiveness, while ensuring that it meets the needs of present and future generations concerning economic, social, and environmental aspects (ITU, 2019)
77 publications with title and abstract containing the term "Smart City Definition" da Silva JG. (2023 p. 21)
Facts and number of publications related to Smart City in five scientific platforms.
da Silva JG. (2023 p. 18)
POPULARITY OF SMART AND SUSTAINABLE CITIES IN PUBLICATIONS
da Silva JG. (2023 p. 16)

EXAMPLE OF Smart Cities GOVERNMENTSEDEN STRATEGY INSTITUTE REPORT 2021

SMART CITY AND LOW-CARBON ECONOMY Smart City policies can improve the low-carbon economy by integrating new technologies into the cities´ operation and management, optimizing the energy´s supply and demand, the information sharing among governent, companies and citizens (Fan et al., 2021)
NET ZERO - Definition A state in which the greenhouse gases going into the atmosphere are balanced by removal out of the atmosphere (Netzero Climate, nd)
Other terms used Low Carbon, Zero Emissions, Net Zero, Carbon Negative, Zero Carbon, Carbon Neutral,Emissions-Free, Climate Neutral, Net Negative, Netzero, Fossil Fuel-Free, Zero Net Emissions (Netzero Traker, 2023; Author, 2024)
WHY EUROPE?
1) High emitter. 2) It is a region that has made significant investments to solve urban problems over time. 3) In terms of continents, although Smart Cities (SC) are a global phenomenon with various regions exploring new solutions to tackle urban challenges, most benchmark SC (25 top cases) are in Europe (12; 48%), a region considered a leader in SC investment and development. (da Silva JG. 2023 p. 24). 4) Studying the policies and initiatives adopted by the best Smart and Sustainable cities in Europe can provide valuable lessons for other cities.
RESEARCH PROBLEM 1 The absence of a comprehensive database that consolidates state-of-the-art publications and patent registrations related to "Net Zero" and similar terms leads to confusion, impeding progress towards a net zero future.
RESEARCH PROBLEM 2 While some digital platforms showcase European cities' emission-reduction policies, a comprehensive analysis of best-practice smart and sustainable cities' municipal initiatives is still lacking.
MAIN GOALS G1) Enhance and generate statistics on the status of main European cities in their initiatives to support net zero objectives.
MAIN GOALS G2) Create and share a digital repository with information on the publications related to Net zero and similart terms, in order to support practitioner advancement.
MAIN GOALS G3) Identify and disseminate the city hall policies and initiatives from leading European smart and sustainable cities striving to achieve Net Zero over time.
