Suwon is the capital and largest city of Gyeonggi-do, South Korea's most populous province which surrounds Seoul, the national capital. Suwon lies about 30 km (19 mi) south of Seoul. It is traditionally known as "The City of Filial Piety". With a population close to 1.3 million, it is larger than Ulsan, although it is not governed as a metropolitan city.

Activities

KRData.jpg GO-PS Gyeonggi Open Platform for SmartCity
GO⋅PS is a smart city standard platform to utilize the element technology of the age of 4th Industrial Revolution as a means to solve urban problems.

The Gyeonggi Province of Korea, along with Gyeonggi Research Institute (GRI) and Gyeonggido Business and Science Accelerator (GBSA), is currently creating and operating an industry-academia-related consultative body to create a sustainable business model. GO⋅PS matches companies, research institutes, and academics according to the demand of public urban matters, and uses its technologies, research works, and consulting methods to create solutions for problems and have them collected on the platform. The GO・PS is currently comprised of three large departments namely, Smart Transport, Smart Energy, and Smart Healthcare. (It is planned to be expanded with more departments in the future)

This is a project concept which is to create citizen-led, decentralized, local energy-based society that builds foundations on which the distributed resources (ESS, solar power) in the region that can proliferate profitable models which citizens invest, own, trade and operate.
  1. This is to create an urban energy storage based on the optimal ESS (energy storage) introduction feasibility analysis in accordance with Energy usage analysis (big data).
  2. This project intends to revitalize the energy production distribution resources through citizen-led photovoltaic power generation by developing photovoltaic energy on rooftop of the buildings along with development of photovoltaic energy in rural areas.
  3. It intends to create power trading ecosystem that utilize distributed resources such as energy management efficiency by utilizing energy use analysis and citizen-led photovoltaic prosumer.

IoT & AI based Smart Energy Management Platform was deployed in public buildings in Suwon City to provide optimal management building facilities, environment, and energy using the urban 3D map and 3D spatial modeling. With the M&V (Measurement & Verification) engine using a standard algorithm, IPMVP (International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol) as well as data intelligence technology with deep-learning, the platform can quickly measure energy performance and determine energy efficiency.

The purpose of this research is to develop the convergence technologies of IoT-based smart energy management system that can minimize building energy use and utility bills. To accomplish the goal, The research objectives are proposed in the followings:
  • Development of IoT-based optimal control and performance evaluation technology based on big data analysis,
  • Development of IoT- based smart energy management platform, IoT devices, and application technology
  • Development of 3D object-oriented information modeling and data visualization based on Geographic information system(GIS)
  • Establishment of test-beds with an integrated smart energy management system

Details

Suwon has existed in various forms throughout Korea's history, growing from a small settlement to become a major industrial and cultural center. It is the only remaining completely walled city in South Korea. The city walls are one of the more popular tourist destinations in Gyeonggi Province. Samsung Electronics R&D center and headquarters are in Suwon. The city is served by three motorways, the national railway network, and the Seoul Metropolitan Subway. Suwon is a major educational center, home to eleven universities.

Suwon is home to teams of the four domestically most popular team sports (football, baseball, basketball and volleyball) including four-time K League champions and two-time AFC Champions League winner football club Suwon Samsung Bluewings and 2021 Korean Series champions KT Wiz of the Korea Baseball Organization.
