Smart

Sandefjord is at the forefront of smart technology! Home to Norway’s smartest street, it boasts cutting-edge features like smart benches that charge your phone and provide heat in winter, sensor-controlled lighting, and waste bins that alert the municipality when they need emptying. You’ll also find free Wi-Fi and information screens with real-time updates.

The Sandefjord citizen app keeps you informed about everything happening in the city. From traffic reports and snowplowing updates to ski trail conditions, bathing temperatures, and sea levels, the app provides all the essential information from the municipality in one place.

Sandefjord was the first municipality in Norway to implement AI technology, launching Kommune-Kari, one of the world’s largest chatbots. Trained to answer over 6,000 resident questions, Kommune-Kari continues to innovate and improve local services.

With a strong tradition of innovation, Sandefjord-based companies are also leading in smart solutions. In 2017, Komplett introduced a robotic warehouse system that made them the most efficient in Europe, a testament to the city's commitment to forward-thinking technology and smart investments.
