欧洲10大最智慧的城市(英汉)

The 10 Smartest Cities In Europe欧洲10大最智慧的城市When it comes to smart cities, Europe is the model for the rest of the world to learn from. European cities tend to be denser, have better public transit, larger commitment to cycling and walking, a stronger focus on sustainability and low-carbon solutions, and perhaps most important, a culture and citizenry more engaged in the journey towards more sustainable and smarter cities. Of course this is a generalization: this series of regional ranking reports has demonstrated leadership from cities across the globe.说到智慧城市，欧洲是世界上其他城市学习的典范。

欧洲城市往往人口更稠密，公共交通更完善，对自行车和步行投入更多，更重视可持续性和低碳的解决方案。

而且，可能最重要的是，欧洲文化和欧洲公民更致力于建设可持续性更强和更智慧城市的进程。

当然，这只是概括而言：这一系列的地区排名报告已经表明了这些城市在全球范围内的领先状况。

But, as I wrote in our rankings of North America's smartest cities, our urban centers "demand 21st-century solutions to accommodate their growing populations in ways that not only maintain the quality of life, but also improve it. In short, smart cities are innovative cities."但是，正如我在北美最智慧的城市排名中所写的，我们的城市中心“要求以21世纪的解决方式来容纳日益增长的人口，这些方式不仅要能够维持现有的生活质量，而且要使之有所提高。

总而言之，智慧城市也应该是创新型城市。

”Without further ado, here is the top 10 smart cities for Europe in 2013(and here's more about how we ranked them).无需多说，以下是2013年欧洲10个最智慧城市（以及我们进行如此排名的原因）。

1: COPENHAGEN1. 哥本哈根（Copenhagen）Notching top spot for the second year in a row Copenhagen has established a reputation as the leading green city across the globe. Copenhagen led the Siemens Green City Index for Europe and has also been selected as the European Green Capital for 2014. And with good reason. Copenhagen has one of the lowest carbon footprints/capita in the world (less than two tons/capita). Copenhagen also has the most ambitious carbon reduction plan of any major city in the world. They aspire to achieve carbon neutrality by 2025. That may sound a ways away but that is only 12 years from now.连续两年位居榜首的哥本哈根已经赢得全球领先绿色城市的声望。

哥本哈根在西门子欧洲绿色城市索引中取得领先地位，且当选为2014年欧洲绿色首都。

这一切都有充分的原因。

哥本哈根是世界上人均碳足迹最低（人均少于两吨）的城市，也有超越世界上任何主要城市的最积极的减碳计划。

他们的目标是到2025年实现碳中和，听起来很遥远，但距离现在也就只有12年了。

In order to achieve such an ambitious goal, the city has established hardcore targets including energy efficiency and renewable objectives, green building standards (all new buildings to be carbon neutral by 2020), and increased transit access to name a few.为了实现这个大目标，哥本哈根制定了核心目标，包括提升能源效率、使用再生能源、绿色建筑标准（到2020年所有新建建筑物均达到碳中和）和增加交通方式等。

Of course, our readers are well aware of the impressive cycling rates in the city-approximately 40% of all commutes are conducted by bike. The city also recently collaborated with MIT to develop a smart bike equipped with sensors to deliver to provide real-time info to not only the rider but also to administrators for open data aggregation on issues of air contamination andtraffic congestion.当然，我们的读者也充分注意到了这个城市令人印象深刻的自行车普及率——大约40%的通勤是由自行车来完成的。

另外，哥本哈根最近还与麻省理工学院合作，发展配备了传感器的智能自行车，传感器不仅能把即时信息提供给骑车人，还可以提供给有关部门以用于汇集空气污染和交通拥堵问题的公开数据。

2: AMSTERDAM2. 阿姆斯特丹（Amsterdam）Like Copenhagen the cycling rates here are off the charts. In fact, Amsterdam may be the only city in the world that has more problems with pedestrian and cycling traffic congestion than vehicle congestion. 67% of all trips are done by cycling or walking. In fact, on a daily basis there are 10,000 bikes parked anywhere a space can be found adjacent to the central train station.阿姆斯特丹的自行车普及率和哥本哈根一样超标。

实际上，阿姆斯特丹可能是世界上唯一一个行人与自行车拥堵比汽车拥堵更为严重的城市。

这个城市有67%的短途交通是靠骑自行车或步行完成的。

实际上，每天都会有上万辆自行车停靠在毗邻中央火车站的任何一个可被找到的地方。

But Amsterdam is much more than just bikes. In fact, in speaking with the founder of this first bikesharing project in the world, which occurred in Amsterdam decades ago, Luud Schimmelpennick, showed me videos of their first experiment in electric vehicle sharing in the early 1990s.但阿姆斯特丹绝不仅仅只有自行车。

其实在与卢德·奇迈派尼克（Luud Schimmelpennick）交谈时，他向我们展示了上世纪90年代初他们第一次实验电动车共享项目的录像。

他是第一个共享自行车计划的发起者，这个计划几十年前始于阿姆斯特丹。

In recent years, Amsterdam has stepped up its pace to be a leading smart city. Amsterdam Smart City is a public private partnership focused on using the city as an urban laboratory for the use of open data, new mobility solutions and ultimately improved quality of life for all residents and visitors. The collaboration has already supported more than 40 smart city projects ranging from smart parking to the development of home energy storage for integration with a smart grid.最近几年，阿姆斯特丹加快了成为全球领先的智慧城市的步伐。

阿姆斯特丹智慧城市计划（Amsterdam Smart City）是个公共事业市场化机制，它致力于将城市用作一个开放资讯的大型试验场所，最终为所有居民及游客发展出新的交通解决方案，同时提高生活质量。
