With cities consuming 78% of the world’s energy and producing more than 60% of greenhouse gas emissions, the need for green and digital transformation is urgent. Among the most significant innovations is RocketGroup’s autonomous modular homes, which reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 263 tons over 30 years compared to traditional apartments.
Vertical garden systems such as the Aero Smart Green Wall are also gaining traction, effectively reducing air pollution and improving the urban climate.
According to SFAGNUM, the use of sphagnum moss as a substrate is a promising eco-solution. According to research, it can absorb and retain 20 times its own weight in moisture, which significantly reduces the need for irrigation. It also has antiseptic properties that prevent the growth of fungi and mold. This makes it an ideal material for use in vertical and roof gardening. According to experts, the use of moss in green roof systems can save up to 50% of the water required for watering the facilities.
Another important area is waste management: EcoPoint is introducing AI-powered recycling terminals to reduce waste in landfills and reduce its carbon footprint.
