Smarter solutions through innovation
Government technology initiatives can be among the most complex anywhere, due to the many diverse stakeholders who must align to ensure success. Our CityNOW team is highly skilled in coordinating such efforts and is spearheading innovative public/private partnerships to complete smart city and sustainability projects. In fact, we have a proven process to create consensus in four to six months around a smart city master plan, encompassing seamless mobility, clean energy, healthy buildings, safe streets and smart living.
You can also see the results of our smart collaborations on state roadways. Working with tech leaders such as Cisco, Amazon Web Services, Qualcomm and Ford – not to mention the DOTs in Colorado, Utah and Georgia – we’re developing the industry’s leading intelligent roadway ecosystem around our revolutionary transportation platform, CIRRUS by Panasonic.

Sustainable energy solutions that benefit us all
Greater reliance on renewable energy has long been one of our top goals at Panasonic. At Denver’s Peña Station, for example, we developed the country’s first carbon-neutral energy plan for a smart city development, in coordination with Xcel Energy and Denver International Airport. And in Fujisawa and Tsunashima, we built Japan’s first sustainable smart towns from the ground up, creating a global model for smart city innovation. Our third sustainable smart town, Suita, is set to open in 2022.
To help reduce investment in new fossil-fuel plants, we’re working with utility companies to answer demands for clean energy and create new revenue streams.
