3 (19) 1. What is the Joensuu City Challenge 2018? Joensuu is a university town located in the eastern part of Finland. Our Joensuu City Challenge 2018 is a new innovation competition reaching out for domestic and international SMEs and other interested parties. The competition consists of four different challenges which we have selected as city development cases. We are looking for real-life solutions that can be realized as pilot projects. The aim is to find innovative ideas to enrich the city life and environment. Winning solutions will be implemented as pilot projects and can serve as reference cases. The aspires to increase the quality of life and to boost economic growth through an innovative approach. The Challenge competition is a continuation of the Joensuu approach to develop smart city solutions and to connect with smart cities as well as global innovation and the business community. The Joensuu City Challenge is realized as part of the Urban Growth Programme of the Finnish Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment. The process aims to strengthen the region s economy, competitiveness and internationalization by developing the business environment and enhancing innovations and pilot projects. 2. Basic Information about Joensuu Joensuu is a growing regional centre and university town with one-third of the population under 25 years old. Some basic information about the town is provided below. Maps and links to more detailed descriptions of platform areas can be found in Chapter 6 of this document. Joensuu is located in the eastern part of Finland in northern Europe. Joensuu has been built on the shores of Lake Pyhäselkä, and the Pielisjoki River runs through the city centre. The population of the city is 76,000, and there are 120,000 inhabitants within the Joensuu region. Joensuu is the 12th biggest Finnish city. 26% of the inhabitants are students. The University of Eastern Finland, Karelia University of Applied Sciences and a lot of vocational education are located in Joensuu. Highly educated population: 30% of the inhabitants have a university or polytechnic degree. World-class research in forest bioeconomy, photonics, learning environments and pedagogy. Important economic sectors and employment: Education, forest and metal Industry, public services, ICT and new materials. Many international and growing companies. A variety of investment platforms, a science park, and services for business development are available. Compact city area with a high pedestrian and cyclist modal share of all trips (46% combined). Good transport connections: airport, railways, harbour with access to the Baltic Sea and beyond, vast road network.

4 (19) High amount of renewable energy: 63% of the total energy consumption within the region is produced from renewable energy sources. Joensuu aims to be carbon-neutral by Over one billion euro development project starting in the central traffic hub at the river side; new opportunities for recreation, living and business. Plenty of events and recreation. Weather conditions include four seasons. Snow cover lasts on average five months, and the annual rainfall is about 600 mm. In the summer, it hardly gets dark. The Finnish heat record of 37.2 degrees Celsius was measured at Joensuu airport (2010). The Joensuu approach is to be a platform and collaborator to facilitate new development and smart city solutions. Our aim is that in 2018 every fifth city purchase and practically all major investments (e.g. schools and daycare centres) should contain innovative elements. As an example, two new schools have obtained green financing certificates, and we have just developed a learning environment which helps to study the carbon footprint at school. The approach combines sensor technology and measurements (saved in the cloud) with analysis and a learning programme and tutorial. The Open Data approach as a whole is under development. For example, all city purchases have been opened to increase transparency. Joensuu is among the Finnish front-runner towns in cycling and even in winter cycling. Automated pedestrian and cyclist counters assist in traffic and business planning. An innovative plot lease competition was just carried out, in which the price was fixed and the competition was solved based on the smartness of the architecture, planning and innovative aspects. The current international competition continues the smart development and search for innovative solutions in Joensuu. The competition financing will be used to implement smart pilot projects in the city centre. Companies are invited to present ideas for pilots and implementation. 3. Competition challenge The is looking for innovative solutions and potential pilot cases for four separate challenges/platforms. Details of each individual challenge/platform are described in their corresponding document. Participants are allowed to take part in one, several or even all the individual challenges. A participant can be a company, another legal organization (e.g. an association or foundation) or a group of various stakeholders. However, there must be a legally sound way for the to make a contract with the participant for the realization of a potential pilot case. One organization is allowed to make only one proposal for each challenge either as an individual or in a partnership.

5 (19) The challenges are set as the following: Case 1: Smart Solution Pilot Case 2: City Lab Approach Case 3: River/Lake Tourism Solution Case 4: Green Energy Solution Each challenge is separate. Maps and links to more detailed descriptions of platform areas can be found in Chapter 6 of this document Case 4: Green Energy Solution The has ambitious goals of reaching carbon-neutrality by Thus, Joensuu is actively improving the sustainability and environmental values in the town. Joensuu is looking for a green energy solution to be built in the Laulurinne Festival area. This area hosts several major events yearly. The biggest one is the Ilosaarirock music festival, which attracts nearly 70,000 visitors during the festival weekend. Innovative green energy approaches are desired in this challenge. We are open to all kinds of solutions related to green energy. In the following, only some illustrations are provided. For instance, smart grid solutions could be used to support the occasional energy needs for the major events that are held in the area. During the events, the energy needs in the area are drastically increased compared to normal everyday energy consumption. Solar panels are one of the most environmentally friendly ways of producing electricity. Solar energy in general can still have a significant impact on a northern country like Finland. The annual solar radiation energy on ground level is almost the same in Finland as in northern Germany. However, the timely distribution is different because the radiation in Finland is more focused in the summer. Geothermal energy production is a potential way to harness the stored energy in the earth. While Finland is not near tectonic plate boundaries, geothermal energy still has plenty of potential. In addition, nearby water areas may be suitable for heat recovery and cooling. All kinds of innovative green energy solutions are welcome in the proposals; the ones mentioned above are just examples. A general plan of the Laulurinne area is in the making in , and the proposals can be taken into account. For this challenge, the proposals should be either feasible to implement as a pilot (e.g. part of a new green energy structure) or a framework of how a versatile green energy plan can be put together to address the issue. The maximum budget for the challenge piloting is 50,000 (no taxes included). The budget will be divided if the city decides to award more than one proposal. Additional funding may be available, but it will be out of the scope of this challenge.
