and a means of communication for the tenants of municipal buildings. Consequently the project contributes to the municipal goal to be a carbon dioxide neutral organization by 2015. – Charging the electric car at home and at the office: Grid operator Liander and The New Motion are testing a smart charger to efficiently charge electric cars at home and at the office. The 'Moet je WATT' box (WATT do you want box) is first being tested in Amsterdam in combination with a smart meter. Because these applications can communicate with each other, the charging process of the car can be regulated automatically. This makes it possible to charge the car and use electrical appliances simultaneously, without overloading the electrical circuit. Moreover companies can automatically charge several cars in a row. The standard plug of all the future electric cars can be connected to the 'Moet je WATT' box. – Swimming pools become sustainable: By showing municipal swimming pools sustainable initiatives, public spaces can learn how to use their energy more wisely. Amsterdam Smart City introduces several sustainable initiatives and technologies, such as the liquid swimming pool covering of HeatSavr, but also LED lightning. Both initiatives can save energy very easily.
