Podcast episode
In this first episode of a special UITP series—produced in partnership with the UITP Summit 2025, where BABLE is a media partner—Mohamed Mezghani, Secretary General of the International Association of Public Transport (UITP), shares insights from his distinguished career in public transport and urban mobility. The conversation explores how shifts in societal expectations and climate concerns have redefined mobility planning, highlighting the importance of inclusive governance, demand-driven solutions, and sustainable innovation. Mezghani discusses the evolution of public transport policy, the impact of digitalisation and electrification, and the need for structured regulatory frameworks. He also champions gender equity in mobility leadership and emphasises the value of holistic, people-centred approaches in building smarter, more resilient cities.

SUMOSU Stations como núcleo de e-MaaS y Smart Grids Visión general Las estaciones SUMOSU son hubs físicos de titularidad pública distribuidos a escala de barrio. Funcionan como nodos integradores de movilidad eléctrica bajo demanda (e-MaaS) y redes inteligentes (smart grids), alojando a empresas de carsharing, micromovilidad y servicios energéticos. Este tejido de infraestructuras modulares forma el corazón de la plataforma e-MaaS y el motor de la transición ecosistémica de las metrópolis del siglo XXI. Propuesta de valor diferencial Uso ciudadano y vecinal: ubicaciones peatonales, accesibles en menos de 5 minutos para el 90 % de los vecinos. Infraestructura básica pública: reduce barreras de inversión y garantiza neutralidad en tarifas y acceso. Corazón tecnológico de e-MaaS: alojan la capa de hardware y la logística para la plataforma de gestión y facturación. Beneficios para administraciones y ciudadanos Descarbonización local planificada y progresiva, apoyada en un despliegue modular alineado con necesidades reales. Recuperación de espacio público: cada hub libera hasta 2.100 m² de calle para usos ciudadanos. Mejora de la calidad del aire y reducción de ruido, fomentando barrios más habitables. Oportunidades para empresas e inversores Modelo de concesión público-privada: la administración aporta suelo e instalaciones, y los operadores despliegan servicios y rentabilizan flotas y energía. Ingresos diversificados: Tarifas de uso de flota y puntos de carga. Servicios de flexibilidad en mercados energéticos (respuesta a la demanda, V2G). Publicidad y retail en zona de descanso. Riesgo mitigado por la titularidad pública y la demanda previsible en entornos urbanos. Papel central en la plataforma e-MaaS Integración nativa de carsharing, bike-sharing y micromovilidad en una sola app. Gestión de flotas y recarga inteligente con IA, optimizando disponibilidad y costes energéticos. Punto de encuentro físico que refuerza la confianza y facilita la atención presencial. Impacto en la transición ecosistémica Conecta movilidad, generación renovable y almacenamiento distribuido para estabilizar la red urbana. Actúa como micro-red inteligente que maximiza el uso de energía limpia y minimiza picos de demanda. Impulsa la economía circular: baterías de segunda vida y reciclaje de materiales en cada hub. Gobernanza y escalabilidad Fase piloto : implantación de 3–5 estaciones en barrios representativos. Escalado gradual : despliegue condicionado a indicadores de uso y reducción de emisiones. Red metropolitana : cobertura completa con interoperabilidad sin fisuras entre distritos. La gobernanza se basa en un consorcio público-privado con roles claros en operación, mantenimiento y evolución tecnológica. ¿Te interesa profundizar en el plan financiero, el cronograma de despliegue o el diseño colaborativo de una prueba piloto en tu ciudad? Hablemos de cómo SUMOSU puede convertirse en la palanca de tu estrategia de movilidad y energía sostenible.

Podcast episode
Bu podcast bölümümüzde, Şanlıurfa’nın iklim dirençli kent olma yolculuğunu Şanlıurfa Büyükşehir Belediyesi İklim Değişikliği ve Sıfır Atık Daire Başkanı Mehmet Demir Bey ile konuşuyoruz. Genç nüfus yapısından hareketle şehrin fırsatlarını ve kırılganlıklarını masaya yatırıyor; Pathways2Resilience ve paralelinde ilerleyen CLIMAAX projelerinde yürütülen çalıştaylar, paydaşlarla ortak vizyon kurma, öncelikli temaların belirlenmesi ve raporlama adımlarını ele alıyoruz. Sohbetimiz; kuraklık gibi öne çıkan risklere karşı uygulanabilir çözümleri, dışarıdan gelen fikirlerin yerel kapasiteyi nasıl güçlendirdiğini ve bilgi/paylaşım pratiklerinin karar alma süreçlerine etkisini irdeliyor. Bölümün sonunda “akıllı şehir” kavramını teknoloji merkezli değil, insan hayatını kolaylaştıran ve kapsayıcı bir yaklaşım olarak yorumlayan bir çerçeve sunuyoruz.
