What results did Russia achieve in the construction of "smart cities," on which it was planned to spend 360 billion rubles by the end of 2024 - TA opinions

The concept of a "smart city" involves the interaction of the technological elements of the city to create a single ecosystem aimed at realizing a comfortable and safe life. Promising systems are being introduced in the fields HOUSING AND PUBLIC UTILITIES of (energy efficiency, household waste management, "," etc.), smart home traffic management ("smart" cameras, unmanned vehicles), eco-monitoring and energy self-sufficiency (use of energy from renewable sources, introduction of electric vehicles, etc.). All this is already applied in. About Russia what results the country has achieved in the field of " constructions smart cities," TAdviser in December 2024 spoke with market participants.

According to forecasts, the Ministry of Construction minimum costs of creating the infrastructure of "smart cities" within the framework of the national project "" in the Housing and urban environment period from 2019 to 2024. should have amounted to 360 billion. rubles This project expires at the end of 2024. The Ministry of Construction also implements the departmental project "Smart City" in the cities of 94 municipalities from 49 subjects. RUSSIAN FEDERATION As specified TAdviser in the ministry, the "pilot cities" carry out digital transformation measures in accordance with the roadmap: they introduce advanced digital and engineering solutions, organizational and methodological approaches and legal models used for digital transformation in the field of urban economy.

What results have Russia achieved in the construction of "smart cities"

To assess the progress and effectiveness of the digital transformation of the urban economy, the Ministry of Construction introduced the IQ Cities index. The implementation of the Smart City project made it possible to increase the level of digitalization by 55% in 2024 compared to 2018, the department added.

According to Mikhail Krasnikov, head of the department for work with government agencies of the Unicorn company (developing a platform for automating buildings and premises), over 5 years of the Smart City project, a "bank of solutions" has been collected from 112 solutions implemented and recommended for replication of digitalization solutions of various aspects of urban economy. Some of them have the status of particularly significant projects aimed at replacing foreign software and supported by the Government of the Russian Federation.

One of the main trends of recent times is the unification of narrow specialized solutions into a single digital environment to comprehensively meet the needs of citizens, providing seamless digital services. And universal integration platforms help in this, ensuring the interaction of all participants in the process, - said Krasnikov.

Elements of the "smart city" have long begun to be used in Moscow. As the Minister of the Government of Moscow, the head of the Department of Urban Planning Policy of the city Vladislav Ovchinsky told TAdviser, such technologies are becoming an integral part of modern construction, transforming the approach to the design, construction and operation of buildings. According to him, a wide range of digital services is available for residents, specialists in city management and builders use unified digital tools to effectively synchronize their work.

He is actively building components of "smart cities" in Russia. " The Rosatom state corporation told TAdviser that its profile platform has been deployed in more than 100 cities. In addition, Rosatom is developing IoT an environment for managing geographically distributed engineering facilities (used in 10 projects), a solution for digitalizing resource supply and technology for automating parking administration processes (21 implemented projects). Rosatom Infrastructure Solutions Elena Lekomtseva, head of the urban technology development unit at "," said that the state corporation will also continue its transport direction - smart cameras, smart intersections, smart lighting.

"Smart cities" are not only state projects. As the director of the Internet of Things Association Andrei Kolesnikov noted, smart apartment homes are built by private companies, traffic control is carried out by municipal automation systems, they are also introduced by private companies at municipal expense.

Urbantech launched a system for controlling the transportation of construction waste in the Moscow region, thanks to which, as TAdviser was told in the company, the number of illegal landfills decreased by more than 60%, and the budget savings for their elimination exceeded 150 million rubles. According to the commercial director of Urbantech Daniil Khazov, the introduction of intelligent transport systems in the Moscow region contributed to a decrease in road accidents by more than 40% over 7 years.

Aleksei Gorbachev, head of Urban Transport at GrafTech, noted that the Smart City urban digitalization project is a powerful step forward for the development of urban infrastructure, including in terms of modernizing urban ground transport. Within the framework of this project, the introduction of such intelligent technologies as video surveillance (in salons and at stopping points, as well as on the route of transport), smart stops (displaying the planned waiting time), dispatching and monitoring, automatic analysis of passenger traffic, automation of traffic planning increases the quality of passenger transportation and the culture of labor organization of all employees of transport enterprises.

Daniil Khazova from Urbantekha says that in the regions, the digitalization of cities directly depends on local authorities and their readiness to be involved in digital transformation. In some regions, digitalization is hampered by infrastructure (quality of power supply, communications), as well as a lack of qualified specialists, he added.

The director of the business area Construction"" of the New Markets department of the company Reksoft"" Darya Kireeva agrees that there is a personnel problem that makes it difficult to introduce and operate new digital systems. According to the expert, the smart cities market needs an increase in the share of private investment. In addition, an effective strategy should be based on high-quality project planning, where it is necessary to determine in advance the expected effect both on the life of an individual and on the development of the entire region as a whole, she added.

Alexey Ravinsky, General Director of the construction company Zapusk Group, attributed the high cost of such projects to the barriers to the development of smart cities, the problems of incompatibility between different infrastructure components and the insufficiently high level of digital literacy of the population.

Rostec, Rosatom and Rostelecom create the Smart City National Competence Center

On January 25, 2019, Rostec, Rosatom and Rostelecom signed an agreement in Moscow to create the Smart City National Competence Center.

Oksana Demchenko, who previously headed the Department of the Urban Environment of the Ministry of Construction of Russia, was appointed the head of the competence center.

The competence center created with the support of the Ministry of Construction of Russia will be engaged in the development, implementation and popularization of technologies, equipment, programs aimed at increasing the level of digitalization of the urban economy. The structure also plans to prepare and support international cooperation projects on housing policy, urban development and natural resource management for the development of smart cities in Russia.

author '= Andrei Chibis, Deputy Minister of Construction, Housing and Communal Services of the Russian Federation ' The Smart City project is a cross-disciplinary project that requires significant resources and participation of almost all city services, business, communities, citizens. It is complex technologically and organizationally, and the main task of the Competence Center is methodological, expert and technical support for regions and municipalities. In addition, the Competence Center should become a platform on which the main work will be carried out to "stitch" and synchronize practical work, consolidate requests and proposals from regions and market participants, analyze typical problems and develop solutions. We expect it to become the main center of expertise on the project and welcome the initiative of Rostelecom, Rostec and Rosatom to create such a center.

Smart City systems allow you to strengthen the quality of management of urban areas, increase the energy efficiency of the urban economy, improve the environmental situation, create an intelligent transport infrastructure that is as comfortable as possible for citizens and guests of the city. At the same time, the implemented solutions can provide both an increase in regional budget revenues up to 10%, and a reduction in costs - up to 15%.

author '= Vasily Brovko, Director-at-Large of Rostec State Corporation For the successful development of Smart Cities, an effective financial model is needed that takes into account the interests of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and investors. The best mechanism can be a concession, when the main burden at the start of the project falls not on the regional budget, but on the investor. Investor risks can be partially closed by subsidizing the interest rate at the financing bank. At the same time, the territories already in the short term receive obvious effects. For example, the "smart" systems created by Rostec allow you to reduce energy costs by 50%, reduce road accidents by 80%, increase the throughput of intersections by 15%, and increase the safety of citizens. Developing effective work mechanisms and combining better experience within the Competence Center will help achieve breakthrough results. This is the main goal of our cooperation.

As of January 2019, Rostec's Smart City projects exceed 30 billion rubles. The systems and elements of the "Smart City" developed by Rostec enterprises - "smart" lighting, traffic control systems, intelligent monitoring systems for housing and communal services, streets, roads, etc. - are being introduced in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Sverdlovsk, Yaroslavl, Irkutsk regions and a number of other regions of the country.

The planned revenue of the State Corporation from the digitalization of urban farms by 2025 should exceed 350 billion rubles.

2018

The volume of the market for technological solutions for the "smart city" - 81 billion rubles, an increase of 8%

The costs of technological solutions for the "smart city" in Russia at the end of 2018 amounted to more than 81 billion rubles, which is 8% more than a year earlier. Such data analysts iKS-Consulting released on March 18, 2019.

According to experts, the market in question has potential and attractiveness, but not only does it not show explosive growth, but it can also shrink. It is predicted that in 2019 investments in digital solutions for the "smart city" will fall to 77.1 billion rubles.

The study notes that private investors are not interested in participating in smart city projects, and almost the entire market is formed by Moscow, which accounts for 93% of expenses in Russia. The share of St. Petersburg is 2%, and the rest of the regions combined - 5%. The disinterest of private investors in participating in smart city projects at Rostelecom is explained by the fact that often such investments do not become highly profitable.

The Moscow budget for the planning period 2019-2020 for the implementation of certain areas within the framework of the concept of a "smart city" provides for cost reduction. In this situation, only the allocation of funds from the federal budget for the implementation of regional programs of the Digital Economy can spur market growth in Russia, iKS-Consulting believes. The departmental program "Smart City" and the modernization of the video surveillance system in Moscow using face recognition technology can have a small impact on the market.

As for the entire Russian market for technological solutions for the "smart city," it can only be spurred by the allocation of funds from the federal budget for the development of regional programs "Digital Economy," indicate in iKS-Consulting. The most promising segments in the field of "smart city" for the regions of analytics include light, housing and communal services, traffic management, "safe city" and eco-monitoring.^[5]

KB Strelka and Cisco agreed to jointly develop Smart City solutions in Russia

On October 11, 2018, KB Strelka and Cisco announced the signing of an agreement of intent, according to which the companies plan to jointly develop solutions in the Smart City direction, including in terms of their localization in Russia.

In particular, the companies intend to participate in the development of a development strategy in the direction of "Smart City" and piloting such solutions in various regions of the Russian Federation. An important part of the signed agreement is, in particular, that KB Strelka will become the first Russian company to localize the control panel of the Cisco Kinetic for Cities solution. The result of cooperation should be the creation of an intellectual infrastructure in the regions of the Russian Federation, based on solutions that increase the efficiency of urban management and optimize the introduction of new services, Cisco said.

KB Strelka is a company with extensive experience in implementing complex projects, which considers the city as a comprehensive system aimed at creating a comfortable environment for life. Cisco, for its part, has experience and knowledge that allows you to make the city not only comfortable, but also "smart." All this will allow our cooperation to be as effective as possible, "said Amr Salem, vice president of public sector customer relations at Cisco. - We actively interact with government agencies around the world: in Europe alone, more than 100 projects have already been launched, within the framework of which we help to build Smart Cities as an expert.

The task of Strelka Design Bureau is to create solutions that will allow Russian cities and their residents to be competitive at the global and regional level. It is important for us to cooperate with the world leader in digital systems for cities and develop transport, economic and spatial solutions that meet the needs of modern citizens, "commented Denis Leontyev, General Director of Strelka Design Bureau.

Experts of the CSR stated the lag of Russia in the field of Smart City

Smart city projects implemented in Russian cities are not integrated and boil down to the modernization of individual systems. Such conclusions were reached by experts from the Center for Strategic Research Alexei Kudrin. The corresponding report of the center entitled "Priority areas for the introduction of smart city technologies in Russian cities" is published on the official website of the organization.

Experts of the CSR state "low readiness of Russian cities for digital transformation." "The smart city projects being implemented in the country at this stage are mainly associated with point digitalization and intellectualization of individual services and infrastructure elements," the document says. As for the comprehensive modernization based on the principles of Smart City, at the moment in Russia such projects are being implemented only within the framework of greenfield projects, analysts at the Center for Strategic Research say. Among such projects are Innopolis in Tatarstan, Innograd Yuzhny in St. Petersburg and the Skolkovo Innocenter near Moscow.

In addition, the country clearly lacks its own Smart City technologies, the report says. "The analysis of patent and publishing activity shows that Russia does not have its own technological groundwork in most areas of development of a smart city," the document says.

On the way to the integrated implementation of Smart City in Russia, a number of obstacles will have to be overcome, CSR experts admit. "The main barriers to the digital transformation of Russian cities are, on the one hand, barriers to the development of new technological solutions (for example, in terms of standardization of new technologies, features of working with data, including large ones, attracting alternative sources of financing for technological projects). On the other hand, legal, organizational and technological barriers to the introduction of smart city technologies by municipalities and businesses (for example, outdated requirements in SNIPs, peculiarities of public procurement, lack of complete, automatically verified and reliable spatial urban data, etc.) play a significant role, "the report says.

Among the priority steps for the comprehensive implementation of Smart City, the experts of the CSR named the improvement of regulatory regulation, including the development and adoption of a special federal law "On smart cities in the Russian Federation." Also, in their opinion, it is necessary to create a coordination body for the development of smart cities at the level of the Government of the Russian Federation and municipalities.

And finally, it is necessary to ensure funding for the modernization of cities based on the principles of Smart City. "Particular attention should be paid to the formation of financial instruments that provide resource support for the implementation of smart city projects. First of all, we are talking about tax benefits, subsidies and grants within the framework of specialized state programs, support for initiatives in the field of public-private partnership, as well as expanding the use of crowdfunding tools, "the authors of the report summarize.

2017

Creation of a consortium to implement the concept of "Smart Cities of Russia"

On October 17, 2017, representatives of the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications of Russia, Rosatom, Rostelecom, ITMO University and Lomonosov Moscow State University signed a memorandum on the creation of a National Consortium for the Development and Introduction of Digital Technologies in the field of urban management.

One of the key tasks of the consortium is the creation and implementation of the concept of "Smart Cities of Russia," which will imply specific measures and targets for the digitalization of urban sectors.

According to Rostelecom President Mikhail Oseevsky, the concept as a whole will provide for the advanced development of 50 Russian cities, which will become "points" of concentration of the main capital of the digital economy - highly qualified specialists. The strategic consortium, in turn, will become a center of competence for the creation of "smart" cities and the implementation of relevant innovative projects in the interests of almost 50 million residents of Russia.

By the end of 2017, it is planned to determine "pilot" territories and develop a "road" map, including, among other things, measures for the use of digital platforms for managing smart cities, projects for the introduction of unmanned vehicles, increasing transparency and efficiency of housing and communal services, creating favorable conditions in cities for the development of high-tech companies and projects and other initiatives.

The Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications proposes to create 50 "smart" cities within the framework of the "Digital Economy" program

In Russia, it is planned to create 50 "smart" cities through the introduction of modern infocommunication technologies. This conclusion can be made on the basis of the Digital Economy of Russia program prepared by the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications on behalf of Russian President Vladimir Putin, which describes the plan for the development of the Russian ICT industry in the period until 2025.

The program of transformation of ordinary cities into "smart" involves the introduction of a set of technical solutions and organizational measures aimed at achieving the maximum possible quality of resource management and service delivery. It is planned that at least 60 wireless Internet access points will be accounted for per square kilometer of "smart" cities, citizens using electronic services will participate in decision-making by the city authorities, and the level of informatization of public transport will reach 100%. Technoparks will also be created that will produce high-tech products.

To implement plans Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media to create "smart" cities, it is necessary to develop a high-quality telecommunications infrastructure - wireless access networks using technology Wi-Fi and modern communication networks based on the standard that 5G can transmit large amounts of data at ultra-high speeds. Another promising area will be the development of narrowband technologies, with the NB-IoT help of which Internet of Things meters HOUSING AND PUBLIC UTILITIES and various sensors that monitor the state of infrastructure and transport can be connected to the "" network.
