With a qualitative approach, in-depth interviews and a series of grounded procedures, the city of Lyon is formed into a Smart city ecosystem due to the embedded ideas of EDF that are manifested symbolically both in the socio-political sphere and in the technical realm through the technical form of the Smart Electric Lyon project. and a massive installation of Smart Meter infrastructure.
