Abstract

In Indonesia, and so is France, there is a growing concern about smart city development. However, empirical evidence is still lacking in Indonesia and so is the comparison between cities in Indonesia and France. Therefore, this paper is to elucidate the smart city development in Indonesia and France in terms of the environment-related domain. This current study is qualitative in nature, focusing on two cities, Lyon in France and Bandar Lampung in Indonesia. The data collection was carried out using two types of instruments. First, we collected data to measure indicators of the environment-related domain of smart cities through interviews with government officials who were in charge of city development. Second, the data collection also involved a five-point Likert scale survey. The findings indicate that the smart city development in Lyon in terms of the environment-related domain is more developed compared to Bandar Lampung. Lyon has enlisted additional private sector support for the concept of smart city development, while everything necessary for the development of a smart city is now being prepared in Bandar Lampung. The recommendations from the findings and suggestions for further research are also discussed.
