Bristol


ASHLEY, EASTON & LAWRENCE HILL SMART DISTRICT

REPLICATE PROJECT

An integrated strategy for a first smart district to be replicated and scaled up to create a better city for a better life.

Bristol City Council is the lead partner for the Bristol pilot and is responsible for project management and coordination. The Bristol pilot explored how technology could help tackle inequalities, such as how smart homes could help ease fuel poverty and how electric bikes could help people to be more active and have more choice in how to travel.

REPLICATE offers an opportunity for people in Bristol to test “tomorrow’s technology today”, learning about and becoming familiar with new technologies that will become increasingly commonplace. The project contributes towards Bristol’s ambition to be carbon neutral and run entirely on clean energy by 2050.
