Smart urban futures are currently being tested and promoted in Europe using innovative and intelligent urban technologies at different spatial scales, in individual sectors such as energy or transport, or by using specific technological innovations. However, the great transformation, though often called for and widely advocated, is yet to come. This paper discusses the necessity of promoting integrative approaches that go beyond technology-centered solutions with the aim of opening up paths towards urban climate neutrality: Precisely because urban futures are hardly predictable due to diverse and partly still hidden influencing factors, it is important to include especially socio-cultural innovations, as well as resilient technical solutions. The considerations developed in this regard conclude with a presentation of the contributions in this TATuP special topic.... view less

Smarte urbane Zukünfte werden derzeit in Europa unter dem Einsatz innovativer und intelligenter urbaner Technologien auf unterschiedlichen räumlichen Skalierungsebenen, in einzelnen Sektoren wie Energie oder Verkehr bzw. anhand spezifischer technologischer Erneuerungen erprobt und vorangetrieben. Allerdings steht die vielfach beschworene große Transformation in den Städten noch aus. Dieser Beitrag diskutiert die Notwendigkeit, über technikzentrierte Lösungen hinausgehende integrative Ansätze zu fördern, um Wege hin zur urbanen Klimaneutralität zu eröffnen: Gerade weil urbane Zukünfte angesichts vielfältiger und teils noch verborgener Einflussfaktoren kaum vorhersagbar sind, gilt es, neben resilienten technischen Lösungen, insbesondere soziokulturelle Innovationen einzubeziehen. Die hierzu entwickelten Überlegungen schließen mit einer Vorstellung der Beiträge in diesem TATuP-Thema ab.... view less
