The Role of Edge Computing in Sustainable Smart Cities

How Can Edge Computing Drive Sustainable Smart Cities? As urbanisation accelerates, the demand for sustainable solutions grows. Smart cities promise improved urban living with minimal environmental impact, and edge computing is the change agent. By processing data closer to the source, it reduces latency, optimises resources, and boosts energy efficiency. Discover how edge computing is transforming smart city applications like traffic management, environmental monitoring, and public safety—leading to a 20-30% reduction in energy consumption compared to traditional cloud systems (Li et al., 2023).
