Sevilla TechPark launches market consultations for 3.88 million euros to digitize its management and move toward energy self-sufficiency.

Sevilla TechPark —an entity dependent on the Andalusian Regional Government's Department of University, Research, and Innovation—has published three new preliminary market consultations for a total value of €3.88 million . This is the final phase of its Public Procurement for Innovation (PPI) project, an initiative that seeks to position the park as a benchmark urban space in sustainability, digitalization, and energy self-sufficiency.

These consultations, which are aimed at private companies, technology centers, or specialized consortia, focus on technological solutions applied to the advanced digitalization of the park, in line with the objectives of the European eCitySevilla program and funded through the Andalusian ERDF Program 2021-2027.

The Seville TechPark global CPI initiative has a total budget of €19.8 million, distributed across 12 lines of action. The objective: to transform the site into a decarbonized, smart urban environment that can be replicated in other cities or industrial ecosystems. In this new phase, the lines presented address digital infrastructure, advanced data management, and security through digital twins.

The first of the three proposals, with a budget of €660,000, proposes the development of a comprehensive system for event, emergency, and security management using digital twins . This tool allows for the creation of a virtual replica of the park in real time, capable of simulating scenarios, anticipating risks, and activating automated protocols in situations such as large crowds, power outages, or security incidents.

Thanks to the combination of artificial intelligence, 5G networks, and connected sensors , this technology will facilitate real-time decision-making and improve fleet resilience. The solution, which is not yet available on the market as proposed, is intended to serve as a proof of concept for future application in other smart cities.

The second line of consultation, with a budget of €2.16 million, proposes the design of a smart digital infrastructure capable of providing autonomy and efficiency to the park's management. This technological architecture must integrate sensors, analysis platforms, and communication networks that enable continuous and collaborative management among the various stakeholders in the business and scientific ecosystem.

The technical requirements include promoting environmental respect, facilitating access to information, digitizing daily building operations , and implementing tools that improve energy sustainability and resource efficiency.

The third line, budgeted at €1.06 million, focuses on the development of a control room based on an open data platform accessible to all companies in the park. This tool should facilitate the visualization of indicators in real time and apply predictive models based on the analysis of large volumes of data.

The goal is to provide Sevilla TechPark with more transparent and efficient governance , based on artificial intelligence and geared toward strategic decision-making regarding mobility, energy consumption, maintenance, and space management. This platform also seeks to promote interoperability and data sharing between entities, in line with the philosophy of urban digital twins.

With these three new lines, Sevilla TechPark continues to advance its roadmap to becoming an urban and technological laboratory , where companies and institutions can experiment with solutions not yet commercialized and, once validated, can be exported to other environments.

Public Procurement of Innovation (PPI) allows governments to act as drivers of emerging technologies , involving the private sector in the design of solutions aimed at the general interest. In the case of Sevilla TechPark, this approach reinforces its position as a strategic hub within the Andalusian innovation ecosystem, especially in areas such as energy transition, digitalization of public services, and sustainable mobility.
