EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
INDICATE “Indicator-based Interactive Decision Support and Information Exchange Platform for Smart Cities” is a
7th Programme funded SMARTCITY-2013 targeted collaborative project (Grant Agreement No. 608775).
INDICATE addresses these issues through the development of a decision support tool that is used in all stages of
urban development of a city. The tool can be used to (i) inform masterplanning at early stages of urban
development; (ii) help make decisions with respect to best technologies to integrate and their economic and
environmental impact to the urban environment; and (iii) optimise existing Smart Technologies to further reduce
energy consumption and carbon emissions.
An important result of the project is the creation of these new innovative business models, which will be tailored
to various different stakeholders (e.g. owners, occupants, management companies, public authorities etc.). A
prerequisite of business model development is knowledge of the marketplace and what the market really needs.
This document aims to identify a network of relevant stakeholders that will represent the final users of INDICATE
decision support tool. The network of key stakeholders will be exploited throughout WP1 and will facilitate the
collection of needs and requirements for the INDICATE tool.
How to read this document:
Chapter 1 describe the methodology of whole process of stakeholders identification foresees two
different phases: one based on local level identification and another one based on European level (effort

1 METHODOLOGY
The main aim of the INDICATE project is to facilitate the transformation of a city towards a Smart City through the
development of the Virtual City Model (VCM). To reach this goal, it is necessary to take actions at all stages of
development of a Smart City. Therefore the interactive tool must cover the following goals: plan, reduce,
integrate and optimise. The INDICATE decision support tool can be used in a city where the buildings and their
urban environment are at an early stage of the sustainable development or otherwise where the city has already
installed smart grid infrastructure and energy efficient technologies are present in many buildings. For this reason
the INDICATE tool can be used by City Architects/Planners, Urban Planning, Consultancy Firms, the Public and
Business Community, Construction Companies at national end European level, Manufacturers of materials, Energy
Efficiency Professional, ICT/RET system suppliers and potential investors and all companies involved in activity of
RTD on Energy Efficiency domain.
At this stage of the project have been identified 7 groups of stakeholders. Each of the stakeholders group is
involved in the process of the development of the VCM in order to reach the end goal of a creation of the Smart
City. The process of identification of stakeholders is based on the analysis of the benefits and opportunities that
each stakeholders could obtain by using INDICATE and how these benefits affect the development and the
transformation of a cities towards a Smart Cities. The analysis is summarized in Figure 1.
Figure 1: INDICATE Stakeholders
10/03/2014 Grant No. 608775 5
CITY PLANNERS: This group includes urban planners, public authorities and city authorities. The advantages for
the City Planners to use INDICATE tool are that they are able to feed into developments plan of public buildings
and to have an overall view on the actions for improvement of existing buildings. Furthermore the global vision of
the city in a single tool could help the city planners in the balancing of energy use and infrastructure requirement.
These features facilitate the process of transformation from city to Smart City.
DEVELOPERS: This group includes building and district owners, main contractors, architects, energy efficiency
professionals, engineers, designers, university centres. With the INDICATE tool, the Developers can analyze the
building and the district environment and they are able to understand where the investments are required and
how optimise the use of the building. The advantages for the Developers to use INDICATE tool are the analysis
and simulations of most suitable technologies to be integrated in the buildings in order to make the
infrastructures more energy efficiency and reduce the supply and demand. These benefits lead to a better
management of the buildings portfolio and thus facilitate the process of transformation from city to Smart City.
RET / TECHNOLOGY SUPPLIERS: This group includes materials and solution manufacturers, R&D centres, and all
organizations that propose energy retrofit solutions, devices, products, systems and tools for the energy saving.
Through the use of the INDICATE tool, the Suppliers are able to simulate and demonstrate the increase of energy
efficiency with the integration of new technologies. Furthermore by using INDICATE it is possible to analyse and
compare the efficiency of different technologies in retrofitting process and estimate the RoI for each solution.
Increasing the visibility of the advantages brought by renewable energy technologies and the creation of a
technology portfolio leads to improve the technology solutions and increase the market share of renewable and
ICT technologies.
POTENTIAL INVESTOR: This group includes banks, public and private investors. Using the INDICATE tool, the
investors are able to investigate which technologies will have a major impact on the city and so they have the
opportunity to decide how invest on the best infrastructures and estimate the return of investment (RoI) on their
business. More investment opportunities in the city, means that there are increases in the finance and economy
of the city.
UTILITY COMAPANIES: This group includes utility managers, energy suppliers, service providers, network
managers and network owners. INDICATE tool drives the utility companies to analyze and estimate how the
infrastructure improvements will benefit the city and how the their services will benefit the community. Using the
tool, the utility companies will be able to evaluate different tariffs plans and estimate accordingly the revenue
and the RoI for each infrastructure improvements.
BUSINESS COMMUNITIES: This group includes business occupiers, representatives of business communities,
public authorities and city authorities. Using INDICATE, they are able to understand the potential for the
integration of groups of buildings. identify the potential for the energy district system and the effects for the
employees or tenants in order to provide a better and more comfortable working environment.
PUBLIC COMMUNITIES: This group includes representatives of end user communities, public authorities and city
authorities. By using INDICATE, they are able to identify the potential opportunity of a city and improve the
supply chain in order to provide a better and more comfortable neighbourhood to live in.
These 7 categories of stakeholders allow us to have a complete coverage on the four pillars of INDICATE project.
As the project is at an early stage, it is important at this point to have direct contact with end users in order to
determine stakeholder engagement programs to define their needs and preferences to achieve the aims of the
10/03/2014 Grant No. 608775 6
project and subsequently involve them in all phases of project development in order to validate the INDICATE
solution.
The identification of the key stakeholders follows the classification of the seven groups described above and in
each group we want to investigate specific issues.
From the City Planners group is interesting understand the main objectives and what are the parameters to
evaluate the results of city transformation. In additional is important investigate what are the key indicators to
implement an energy efficiency renovation project. The City Planners highlight what parameters (i.e. humidity,
noise, energy consumption, energy produced etc..) are crucial in the life cycle of a building and/or a district.
Furthermore it is important to investigate how does the use category of any building (residential, commercial,
industrial, public, etc..) influence the methodology selection and the approach taken to energy efficiency. From
the City Planners and Developers groups are interesting understand how the regulatory requirements, the
policies and the standards influence the approach taken to scheme development and the selection of any
methodology, with more attention on BREEAM, LEED, BER methodologies. The Developers allow us to identify the
key factors that influence the choice of materials and technologies that will be integrated in any designed and
constructed scheme. With key factors we means cost, availability, suitability, regulatory standards and
performance effectiveness. From the RET and Technology Suppliers group is important understand what are the
innovative solutions to improve the energy performance of a building and/or district and reduce the emission of
carbon footprint, maintaining a high level of working/living environment. From the Potential Investors group is
important understand and analyse what are the decisions that lead to invest in new technologies and business
opportunities. From the Utility Companies group is important understand how the energy services are integrated
in the cities. Furthermore we explore how the presence of existing urban networks or energy collection systems
and distribution influence design and build activities and how the communities will benefit from their
improvements. From the Business and Public Communities groups is important understand if the methodologies,
the solutions and the standards adopted in the energy efficiency projects influence their awareness and
behaviour in terms of the operations of the buildings.
Identifying and activating a large, diverse pool of stakeholders and finding out what moves them, enables
INDICATE to involve the key stakeholders in validation activities that give input to WP3, and to get their
endorsement. INDICATE needs to take input of stakeholders with authority on future energy systems to ensure
that the combined elements of the vision make up a well-defined, coherent unity, and to ensure that the vision is
both desirable and feasible to implement.
To achieve this goal the whole process of stakeholder identification foresees two different phases: one based on
local level identification and another one based on European level.
The first actions, which involves the identification of the stakeholders will be carried out at pilot level. This choice
comes from the need to identify all the actors directly involved in the three project test sites from which it is
possible analyze in depth the different issues. Through the consultations with local stakeholders, will be possible
to understand and highlight the requirements and the functionalities that must be implemented in INDICATE
decision support tool.
The need to extend the network of stakeholders at European level comes from the objective that INDICATE aims
of creating a generalised model that could be replicated in different scenarios and not be a model applicable only
to the project pilots investigated. Therefore starting from the stakeholder identification at pilot level, the
consortium has extended the local level identification to the European level by identifying the public and private
10/03/2014 Grant No. 608775 7
Organizations, European Projects and Associations focused on topics relevant to the INDICATE project and from
these relevant projects are been identified the stakeholders. This allow INDICATE to reach all relevant public
authorities, SMEs, Universities and companies involved in ICT and Energy Efficiency domains.

2 IDENTIFICATION OF KEY STAKEHOLDERS AT PILOT LEVEL
The INDICATE project will help with the development of urban master plans; support the decision maker with
respect to the integration of technologies and renewables in their neighbourhood which will help reduce
consumption and demand on fossil fuels; and support the optimisation of existing systems in cities that are
already reaching ‘Smart’ City status. To demonstrate each of these aspects of the tool, 2 city demonstrators with
detailed information about the site and the ability to make improvements and demonstrate the functionalities of
the tool throughout the course of the project have been chosen; these are Genoa in Italy and Dundalk in Ireland.
Figure 2: Partners involved in the identification of stakeholders
The partners Ente Ospedaliero Ospedali Galliera (EOG) and Louth Country Council (LCC) as public authorities for
Galliera hospital and Dundalk town respectively have collaborated with D’Appolonia (DAPP) to identify the key
stakeholders for each pilot test. The close interaction between the two pilot owners and DAPP (Figure 2) has
allowed to define a common strategy needs so that the same information will be obtained from the interviews in
both Genoa and Dundalk in Task 1.2.
To achieve an unified vision of which stakeholders must be involve, are been organized meetings which were
attended by DAPP, EOG and LCC and IES (for coordination support). In the meetings are been defined and
identified the “good” local stakeholders: municipality offices, architects and planners, hospital staff (for EOG),
citizen (for LCC), local business and investors, ecc. In addition since the project website was not yet active once
stakeholders involvement started, it was decided to create an early version project flyer (in both languages,
English and Italian) with an abstract of the INDICATE project (see ANNEX 1). The flyer has been shared with the
stakeholders to introduce the project and increase our references.
With local stakeholders, it has been decided to have a face to face interview. In this early phase of project, this
direct approach with stakeholders is more useful than an indirect contact as phone, mail or web. In additional the
face to face talk is useful to create a local interest. When the contacts are established then this activities could be
followed by workshops and online survey (more detail will be provided in D1.2). The opportunity to have a face to
face meeting with the individual stakeholders, allow us to have the opportunity to investigate different issues.
Following the stakeholder groups described above we have identified the stakeholders for Genoa and Dundalk
city (see ANNEX 2).
2.1 Genova Galliera Pilot Genoa is the capital of Liguria and the sixth largest city in Italy. Genoa is currently promoting the Genoa Smart
City Association, which is aimed at improving the city quality of life through sustainable economic development
based on research and technology guided by the Municipality in a project of integrated planning; it has also
10/03/2014 Grant No. 608775 9
signed the Green Digital Charter at the end of 2009 to encourage cities to reduce the carbon footprint with ICT
solutions. The INDICATE project acts to integrate and optimise new ICT and Renewable Technologies within the
Ospedale Galliera.
The stakeholders for Genoa Galliera Pilot were selected by EOG with the help of D’Appolonia from among those
who have participated in different ways in the definition of the draft of the New Galliera Hospital.
They are designers, public bodies and consultants involved in the planning and approval of the Galliera project.
The identified actors have tackled a project with innovative solutions based on the rational use of energy and
renewable energy sources, both at urban and building scale. Furthermore these players will face in the future
similar projects to the New Galliera Hospital that will offer more and more integrated solutions for which find
evidence on sound science.
2.1.1 Owner & Planner
Engineer Michele Maddalo, manager of the technical department of Galliera Hospital, hospital energy manager,
responsible for the already performed projects in the area of renewable energies and actor of requests in terms
of energy efficiency for the New Galliera project.
2.1.2 Investors
Architect Franco Giodice, vice director of sector investments in health of health department and social services in
Regione Liguria administration, program manager for the construction of new hospitals in the region of Liguria.
The regional administration is financing the project of the New Galliera with about 44 million € grant. This mode
of financing of infrastructure in health care is destined to end, available firms will be in the future for other
programs only European funds, but the commission and the EIB according to the program HORIZON 2020 will
finance projects about energy-efficiency related infrastructure. Then in healthcare buildings future projects
should contain solutions similar to those studied for the Galliera if not even more evolved. The interest of regional
administration will be to focus on these issues in allocating funding available.
2.1.3 Business Communities
Architects Giovanni Battista Poggi and Luisa Pagone, of the Department of regional programs of transports ports
and public works and construction. In the New Galliera project they were partners not only in terms of funding
but also as a facilitator and glue between other public bodies affected by confirming permissions in the draft.
Solutions such as those found in the design of the New Galliera will be replicated on other types of important
projects concerning the development of ports and shipbuilding in the region and their interactions with the city,
the development of the areas under de-industrialisation, not least the use of public goods offered for sale
according to programs of privatisation of public housing, old hospitals, barracks, etc.
2.1.4 City Planners
Architect Pier Paolo Tomiolo of the Department of urban planning of regional administration. The regulatory and
urban transformations such as that included in the draft of the New Galliera is a task that belongs to the regional
administration of Liguria.
Dr. Gabriella Minervini works for the Department of Environment in the Regione Liguria. For the issues of
sustainable development the environment department is perhaps one of the regional administration's most
important institutional stakeholders. In particular it is authorised to issue consents relating to environmental
impact assessment projects. It was therefore interested in the analysis of environmental screening of the project
of the New Galliera.
10/03/2014 Grant No. 608775 10
Architects Maurizio Sinigaglia and Silvia Capurro of the Management planning, SUE and large projects of the
Municipality of Genoa, are responsible for the project planning of the development plan of the city of Genoa and
the drafting of the Building Regulations to implement the plan and the verification of tasks compliance with the
plans. They are involved both as planners with regard to the project of the New Galliera at the urban level and at
detail level of in the building and as the authority which approved the project in the conference services.
Engineer Rita Pizzone works with the Architectural Heritage and Landscape of Liguria. As part of the Galliera
hospital several buildings are under protection as architectural and landscape heritage and the area of
construction of the new building is included in the range of landscape protection of the coast, and so this public
body had to express their opinion on both the new building (to house the health activities) and the reuse of
monumental pavilions. In our opinion, it is interesting to hear the point of view of a body whose judgments,
although away from the use of renewable energy and energy efficiency, weigh heavily on possible actions in the
energy sector on the existing building, especially given that in Italy buildings are very often subject to protection
in a direct or indirect way.
Engineer Simona Brun works for Infrastrutture Liguria, a public body with the mandate to plan the realisation of
four new hospitals in Liguria. They are interested in solving problems relating to urban transformation and
integration of energy saving systems at both urban and building scales.
2.1.5 Developers
OBR, Steam and D'Appolonia, together with the architect De Pineda from Barcelona, are authors of the
preliminary draft of the New Galliera. They, through the design of the building envelope, the plant system and the
environmental impact analysis, have translated in practice the Galliera's willingness to realise a Green Hospital
expressed in the feasibility study: Paolo Brescia (OBR) has designed the urban scale and building envelope;
Riccardo Curci (Steam) has designed the energy systems and their integration; Lisiero (D'Appolonia) is the author
of the environmental impact analysis. In addition, the architect Rocchi (D'Appolonia) is responsible of the
authorisation process of the project and Professor Del Grosso is the Technical Director of D'Appolonia and
cosignatory of the project.
Professor Paolo Orlando from the Department of Health Sciences at the University of Genoa, is the principal
author of the feasibility study of the New Galliera. He proposed the realization of a Green Hospital according to
the criteria of the green health care (such the Canadian Coalition for Green Health Care or the Green Guide to
Health Care), bringing to the attention of strategic direction of the environmental sustainability of a company
appointed to provide health and then in the first place to preserve it.
Professor Anna Osello from the Politecnico of Turin and Professor Angelo Ciribini from the University of Brescia
are part of a group of scholars who are investigating the development of design systems with tools of Building
Information Modelling in Italy. These tools allow the user to perform sophisticated modelling of the energy
behaviour of the building and systems with the ability to perform rapid simulations and comparisons between
different plant solutions and building codes. Although the current project of the New Galliera has not been
developed with BIM tools, the aim of the hospital is to conduct the next step of the design trough the
implementation of such systems. Osello and Ciribini have made an important contribution to the preparation of
the tender for the next step of the project.
10/03/2014 Grant No. 608775 11
2.1.6 Utility Companies
Engineer Bongiorni of SIRAM, the energy management company of the hospital. Currently SIRAM is managing
several hospitals in Liguria, by an ESCO contract. At Galliera SIRAM has installed a combined engine for electricity
and heating, and is developing a program of HVAC centralised control.

Action
The synergies with other EU funded projects represent the logical evolution of RTD activities in the field of ICT for
energy efficiency. In particular these communities have been identified:
E2BA (Energy Efficient Buildings Association) currently consisting of 142 members (more than 30% from
the construction sector, gathering most of the top 10 groups in EU, the rest from the value chain), DAPP is
coordinator of the operational working group being also coordinator of the Ad-hoc Industrial Advisory
Group within the EeB PPP.
ECTP (European Construction Technology Platform), DAPP is member of the High Level Group.
PTIC (Italian Construction Technology Platform), DAPP is a coordinator of the SME Focus Area.
SCSP (Smart City Stakeholder Platform), lunched by the European Commission (DG Energy) as part of the
Smart Cities and Communities Initiative under the SET-Plan to "filter and make accessible information on
10/03/2014 Grant No. 608775 16
potential technologies to enable cities and local governments to find and finance suitable technological
solutions", DAPP is active as participant to the high level group for roadmap participation.
EERA (European Energy Research Alliance), an alliance of leading organisations in the field of energy
research with the aim of strengthening, expanding and optimising EU energy research capabilities
through the sharing of world-class national facilities in Europe and the joint realisation of pan-European
research programmes (EERA Joint Programmes), DAPP is active in EERA initiatives.
Genova Smart City Association through the direct involvement of DAPP as the project manager.
SIAIS (Società Italiana dell’Architettura e dell’Ingegneria per la Sanità): national association of Italian
engineers and architects for the Italian health service, EOG is an active member of the association.
Green Building Council Italia (GBC Italia), DAPP is an active member of the Italian association.
Having regard to the synergies of INDICATE partners with this communities, in the Task 1.2 will be set up a
engagement plant in order to strengthen the stakeholders network. The involvement of some members of the
consortium within that communities, will allow to introduce INDICATE project to the communities members and
share with them the knowledge resulting from the project.
Taking into account the Research European Project and the Energy Efficiency Communities identified, an initial list
of people has been collected. At the moment the list counts circa 1000 contact persons8 and it will be constantly
updated during the project progress. The list has been retrieved from a screening of project mailing list and direct
contact with the project coordinators. In order to have a greater impact on communication aspects, for each
person into the list have been collected: name, surname and email. Furthermore, when it was possible, have been
reported the organization name and the area of interest with regard to the INDICATE project. The Table 2
summarize the list of European Stakeholders.

The engagement with stakeholders will be performed in Task 1.2 when the persons in the contact list will be
contacted in order to analyse the real potential of the INDICATE tool, but also their input on how to fine tune the
INDICATE approach for optimal adoption will be taken into account. The inputs from the stakeholders will be
collected by surveys, and will conduct a quantitative analysis of these results therefore it is important to collect
the largest number of Stakeholders.
8 Having regard to the dissemination level of this Document, it is not appropriate to include the list of people as Annex. We
have the ability to use the email addresses of the people in the list, but we cannot share it.

4 CONCLUSIONS
This deliverable reports the identification and construction of a network of key stakeholders that will be used in
other tasks of the WP to understand the needs and the requirements for the INDICATE tool. The process of the
stakeholder identification is the results of two activities, one at the pilot level and one at the European level. At
both levels a clusterisation of the stakeholders has been formulated according to the benefits that each group
could retrieve from the project. The 7 groups identified are: City Planners, Potential Investors, Developers, RET /
Technology Suppliers, Utility Companies, Business Community and Public Community. From the stakeholder
groups, the consortium is able to collect the requirements to develop an interactive cloud-based tool able to
support those involved in making design decisions towards transforming their cities to a smart city.

CONTRIBUTION OF DELIVERABLE TO FUTURE TASKS
INDICATE aims to develop an interactive cloud-based tool, which will provide dynamic assessment of the
interactions between buildings, the electricity grid, the Electric Vehicle (EV) grid and Renewable and ICT
technologies. Therefore it is necessary to involve the end users in all steps of development of the INDICATE tool.
As agreed within the Description of Work (DoW) Task 1.1, the network of key stakeholders identified in this task
will be involved in other tasks of the WP1. In particular stakeholders will be engaged to take part at frontal
interviews and workshops and online surveys (Task 1.2) to facilitate in-depth analysis of how the INDICATE
methodology will be useful in the transformation of the city. Furthermore the stakeholders will be engaged to
create a detailed understanding of the technology market for the development of an innovative business model
(Tasks 1.2 and 1.4).
