Smart City


About Smart City

Cities and towns have to get smart to manage a combination of influx from urban areas and natural population growth in order to ensure that residents enjoy an increasing quality of life.

Mission

Our mission as a smart, hi-tech incubator is to support the successful development and sustainability of innovation as the first choice for the commercialisation of smart products and services for Smart Cities and Smart towns.

SMART BUILDING

Propella has a Smart Building test bed on site. Solutions are developed for buildings of all types and sizes, from small government (RDP) houses to multi-storey complexes. A smart building intelligently integrates different physical management systems to ensure they work together efficiently. Smart building management systems can reduce water and energy use, minimise waste and improve security for residents and visitors.

SMART COMMUNITY

Technology has the power to enable municipalities to be more responsive to citizen needs in order to enhance the quality of life of residents.Propella follows a citizen-centric approach to the development of applications. Citizens expect transparent, accessible and responsive services. A survey by Accenture found that citizens increasingly want a personalised digital experience, smartphone access and integration with social media. More specifically, citizens want smartphone apps that provide convenient access to services and information

Propella takes a holistic approach to developing the solutions needed to make cities and towns more sustainable.

WASTE MANAGEMENT

Smart waste management systems reduce waste and sort waste at source. Propella supports the development of Smart methods for the proper handling of waste. This includes the conversion of waste into a resource for closed - loop economies.

WATER MANAGEMENT

Almost all towns and cities around the world face challenges with the supply of potable water. Propella supports the development and monetisation of Smart water management systems that use digital technology to help save water, reduce costs and increase the reliability and transparency of water distribution.

SMART ENERGY

Propella is supporting the development of smart energy innovations, such as distributed renewable generation, microgrids, smart grid technologies, energy storage, automated demand response, virtual power plants and demand - side innovations such as electric vehicles and smart appliances.

SMART HEALTHCARE

Globally, the health sector is in transition as it seeks to address a myriad of challenges—from an aging population and rising costs to outdated infrastructure and incompatible technologies and protocols. Managers of public health facilities in Smart Cities need ICT services that enable the provision of intelligent, data-driven medical services in order to make optimum use of the funds available. Propella also supports the development of Smart medical devices that help with prevention and treatment.

Smart Infrastructure

SMART INFRASTRUCTURE

Smart infrastructure provides the literal foundation for smart cities. The core underlying characteristic of the elements that make up a Smart City (such as governance, mobility, buildings, environmental management) is that they are connected and that they generate data. Propella helps innovators to explore ways of using this data intelligently to ensure the optimal use of resources and improve performance.

Smart Mobility

Smart Mobility

SMART MOBILITY

Smart mobility solutions help reduce congestion and foster faster, greener and cheaper transportation options. They include individual mobility systems such as bicycle sharing, ride sharing (or carpooling), vehicle sharing and on - demand transportation.
