Development Updates in Capital Smart City Islamabad

The Capital Smart City Islamabad is unique and ambitious. This is because this is the first time that a real estate developer has introduced the concept of smart cities or smart residential communities in Pakistan. The smart residential and commercial communities are based on the concept of provisioning of digital service in all aspects of life. For instance, in a smart city, a smart household electricity system is based on the concept of pre-paid metering where the customers can use smart cards to get the required number of units according to their electricity consumption. Similar systems are in place for other utilities. Another aspect of smart cities is based on the fact that internet connectivity in smart cities is considered to be a basic right of the residents and it is provided for free or with a fee throughout the community. Also, the smart establishments are usually those which thrive on providing a luxurious lifestyle by keeping it sustainable and eco-friendly. For instance, Capital Smart City is in the process of deploying power plants that are fueled by wind and solar energy. Similarly, the water recycling units are also being installed so that the rainwater can be logged, stored, and recycled for human consumption. These all aspects of a smart city make it smart and this is what Capital Smart City is doing.

According to the Islamabad Capital Smart City latest updates 2020, nearly 50% of the infrastructural development work is complete in the housing scheme.
