- Recently, the central government website released the “Notice from the General Office of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development on Carrying out National Smart City Pilot Projects (Jian Ban Ke〔2012〕42)”.
- The notice states: (1) Smart cities are a new model that strengthens urban planning, construction, and management by comprehensively applying modern science and technology, integrating information resources, and coordinating business application systems; Building smart cities is an important measure to implement the Party Central Committee and the State Council on innovation-driven development, promoting new urbanization, and building a moderately prosperous society in all respects; To explore scientific approaches for the construction, operation, management, service, and development of smart cities, it has been decided to launch a national smart city pilot program; All regions should attach great importance, seize opportunities, and actively carry out smart city construction, improve urban management capabilities and service levels, and promote industrial transformation and development. (2) The "Interim Management Measures for the National Smart City Pilot" and the "National Smart City (District, Town) Pilot Indicator System (Trial)" are hereby issued to you. Please comply and implement accordingly, and complete the relevant pilot application work for 2012; Cities (districts, towns) applying for national smart city pilots should formulate a smart city development plan outline, refer to the "National Smart City (District, Town) Pilot Indicator System (Trial)," and formulate practical national smart city creation goals and implementation plans based on local conditions, establishing corresponding policies, organizations, and funding support systems; Please promptly organize the application process, review the application materials, provide recommendations, and submit the application materials along with electronic documents to the Department of Building Energy Conservation and Technology of our Ministry by December 31, 2012.
- Commentary:
A smart city is an urban form supported by next-generation information technology and a knowledge society's next-generation innovation (Innovation 2.0) environment. Smart cities are based on new-generation information technologies such as the Internet of Things and cloud computing, as well as tools and methods like Wikipedia, social networks, Fab Labs, Living Labs, and integrated integration methods. They create an ecosystem conducive to innovation, achieving comprehensive and thorough perception, ubiquitous broadband connectivity, intelligent integration applications, and sustainable innovation characterized by user innovation, open innovation, mass innovation, and collaborative innovation.
Building smart cities is an important measure to implement the CPC Central Committee and the State Council's policies on innovation-driven development, promoting new urbanization, and building a moderately prosperous society in all respects. Relevant cities (districts, towns) applying for national smart city pilots and implementing smart city construction will benefit the demand for related monitoring instruments and systems. At the same time, as pilot work advances, the nationwide popularization of smart city construction is also worth looking forward to.
From the perspective of the national smart city (district, town) pilot indicator system, listed companies related to environmental monitoring instruments are expected to benefit in gas systems, intelligent transportation, smart environmental protection, and smart safety. Among them, Hanwei Electronics has business in gas safety monitoring and safety monitoring systems; Tianrui Instruments operates in food, drug safety testing instruments, and heavy metal detection and monitoring instruments; Xianhe Environmental Protection, Juguang Technology, and Xuedilong have businesses in air quality monitoring and services, surface water environmental quality monitoring and services, and pollution source monitoring. It is recommended to focus on Hanwei Electronics, the leader in gas safety monitoring instruments, and Tianrui Instruments, the leader in heavy metal and food safety testing instruments.
On the uncertainty side, smart city construction is a gradual, comprehensive, and lengthy process, and the pace and intensity of policy and funding implementation are difficult to grasp.
