+CityxChange Launch

Limerick is Irelands 1st Lighthouse SMART City. The +CityxChange vision is to enable the co-creation of the future we want to live in. The focus is on the development of new ‘community grid’ systems including the use of smart meters and new energy sources such as hydrokinetic energy and storage, as well as digital tools and citizen participation, to create districts capable of generating more energy than they consume.

This has seen Limerick city secure €6.5m to develop a series of demonstration projects on how to become energy-positive. Based in the city centre’s Georgian Innovation District, the project will be led by Limerick City and County Council together with partners from the public and private partners.
