SECTORS — MUNICIPALITIES

Manage your city's data, not its energy bill.

From street lighting to water infrastructure, from waste collection to air quality — monitor all of your municipal assets from one platform. Nu Teknoloji digitalises public infrastructure end to end.

Compliance and infrastructureETSI StandardDomestic and National R&DAES-128/256 EncryptionSDG Compliant Reporting

Running infrastructure in a municipality means meeting rising expectations on a limited budget.

  • Energy Costs — Electricity costs for street lighting, facilities and infrastructure strain the budget more and more.

  • Resource Efficiency — Where water, waste and energy resources are being wasted is not visible.

  • Operational Tracking — The live status of field equipment and services is unknown, and response times grow.

  • Disaster Readiness — In sudden events, the early warning and field coordination infrastructure falls short.

  • Citizen Satisfaction — Service interruptions turn directly into a reputation and trust risk.

Nu Teknoloji turns these question marks into data and visibility.

SOLUTIONS — SPECIFIC TO MUNICIPALITIES

A modular structure shaped to your city's needs

Five solution groups you can start from a single pain point and extend step by step without needing a large initial investment.

Energy, Lighting and Solar

Street lighting and infrastructure are the largest item in a municipal energy budget. This module makes lighting smart and partly independent of the grid.

  • Solar Lighting

    Lighting points that are entirely independent of the grid and generate their own solar energy; operating cost approaches zero.

  • AC Lighting

    In grid-fed street lighting, 30–50% energy savings through remote monitoring, fault detection and dynamic brightness control based on time and traffic density.

  • Remote Meter Monitoring

    Electricity, water and gas meters — different meter types are gathered on one platform and read without going to site; leaks and losses are detected immediately.

Water and Infrastructure

Water loss carries both cost and crisis risk. This module makes the water infrastructure visible from the main to the tap.

  • Water Infrastructure Tracking

    Line pressure, flow and leak data are monitored continuously; the water loss rate can be reduced by 15–30%.

  • Water Quality Monitoring

    pH, chlorine, turbidity and conductivity are monitored live; an early alarm is raised on contamination events.

  • Park and Garden Irrigation Management

    Soil moisture and weather data prevent unnecessary irrigation, delivering 30–40% water savings; valves open and close automatically as needed.

Transport and Mobility

Public transport and the car park experience are the most visible face of citizen satisfaction. This module improves the experience and creates new revenue.

  • Smart Stop

    Passenger information, a security camera and USB charging improve the public transport experience and generate extra revenue from advertising space.

  • Smart Car Park Management

    Occupancy data shortens the time spent looking for a space and reduces carbon emissions.

  • EV Charging Monitoring

    The usage and status of electric vehicle charging points are monitored centrally.

Environment and Quality of Life

Air quality and waste management directly affect public health and operating cost.

  • Air Quality Monitoring

    PM2.5, PM10, CO₂, VOC and NOx are measured in real time; public health risks are detected early.

  • Smart Waste Management

    Routes are optimised with container fill sensors; fuel consumption falls by 25–35%.

  • Noise Monitoring

    Sound levels are monitored continuously, making regulatory compliance and complaint handling easier.

  • Emergency and Disaster Management

    With off-grid solutions, emergency lighting and communication continue even during a power cut; field coordination speeds up.

Smart Street Furniture

A module that equips the street's physical hardware — poles, benches, luminaires, bins — with sensors, making scattered field assets visible on one platform.

  • Smart Energy Pole

    Combines lighting, camera, environmental sensor and communication equipment in a single pole; installation cost and time fall.

  • Pole Solar

    Every pole generates its own solar energy and runs independently of the grid; operating cost approaches zero.

  • Smart Bench

    A bench equipped with solar charging, Wi-Fi and an environmental sensor; grid dependency is eliminated.

  • Smart Luminaire

    Faults and energy consumption are monitored at the level of the individual luminaire; replacement is planned in advance.

  • Smart Waste Bin

    Fill level is monitored live, and collection teams are dispatched at the right time without making unnecessary trips.

PLATFORM AND PRODUCTS

The software and hardware behind the solutions

The solution groups above come to life with the Nu Platform software and our field hardware.

COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES

We choose the right technology for every scenario

Nu Teknoloji does not tie itself to a single communication method in IoT projects. We choose the most suitable communication technology according to the site's structure, coverage needs, data transmission frequency, energy consumption and operating goals. In municipal projects we mainly use DECT NR+, but we bring in the other technologies as the scenario requires.

  • DECT NR+

    Non-Cellular 5G — Mesh

    Ideal for mains-powered devices, a mesh network structure, high reliability.

    Enterprise and critical communication, city-wide field monitoring

HOW WE START

Digital transformation in three steps

  1. 01

    Discovery

    We assess your facility's existing infrastructure.

  2. 02

    Pilot Deployment

    We start with a low-risk pilot on a single line or a single equipment group.

  3. 03

    Scaling

    With the results proven in the pilot, we extend across the facility thanks to the modular structure.

Try it on a single line first

Before making a large initial investment, see the results on a single critical piece of equipment or line.
