How does IoT help cities to become more sustainable?
summary
Cities house 4.2 billion people and concentrate roughly 75% of energy use while producing ~60% of greenhouse gases, so the concrete claim is that IoT reduces waste by monitoring infrastructure: streetlights with noise and outage sensors, water meters and pressure/temperature sensors that flag leaks — a World Bank–cited ~40% water loss figure anchors the urgency. The stack uses LoRa Sigfox cellular and sub‑GHz mesh, tested with Silicon Labs GSDK, cloud storage, multi‑device testbeds and self‑healing mesh emulation to show what actually works.
