The initiative, part of the 2026 "Territoris Innovadors" Plan, targets the municipality's 1,895 inhabitants spread across Palma, Marchuquera, and Monterrey, aiming to enhance quality of life through technology.
The project focuses on four main areas: smart solar lighting with autonomous photovoltaic luminaires that adjust intensity based on presence; security improvements using technological equipment; an open-source platform with a citizen panel in Spanish and Valencian for accessing municipal information; and training and participation for municipal staff and residents.
Through this initiative, Palma de Gandía demonstrates that technological innovation is feasible, beneficial, and accessible for rural municipalities.
