| Abstract |
The paper addresses the emerging need for tools devoted to the energy governance of smart cities. We propose a hierarchical decision process that supports the energy manager in governing the smart city while addressing different urban sectors with an integrated, structured, and transparent planning. Starting from the urban control center proposed in a previous contribution for the urban energy management, a hierarchical strategic decision structure is proposed. More in detail, a two-level decentralized programming model integrates several decision making units (decision panels), each focusing on the energy optimization of a specific urban subsystem. We focus on the presentation of the street lighting decision panel and on its application to the energy management of the public lighting of the city of Bari (Italy), where a smart city program has recently been launched. |
