Our project partner Hellenic Organisation for Standardisation \u2013 NQIS\/ELOT<\/a> is the sole national body in Greece responsible for the elaboration, approval, publication and distribution of Hellenic Standards. The elaboration of standards is entrusted to ELOT\u2019s Technical Committees and Working Groups, in which interested parties from both the Public and the Private Sector are represented, in order to achieve maximum possible consensus among them. In this framework, ELOT operates more than 190 Technical Committees and Working Groups, members of which are more than 1100 distinguished Greek scientists.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article ELOT summarizes the standardisation activities at national, European, and international levels that concern mainly technological and managerial issues of smart and sustainable cities.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The standardisation efforts for the Smart and Sustainable Cities (SSC)  are expanding following the commitment of national governments to UN AGENDA 2030 and Sustainable Development Goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Standardization  bodies can play an important role for the successful deployment of  SSCs, as they provide a base for interoperability of equipment and networks , risks limitation, common framework and consensus among  stakeholders, i.e. administrations and public authorities, city residents, vendors and service providers, third party organizations and academia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article a summary of  the standardization activities at national, European, and international level are presented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
