Description

Urban Energy Transition: From Fossil Fuels to Renewable Power provides a comprehensive look at the global shift toward sustainable urban development. This Elsevier publication offers a collection of 29 chapters contributed by experts from 18 different countries, delivering both fundamental concepts and advanced insights into modern energy systems. As cities move away from the fossil-fuel systems of the industrial age, this handbook serves as a guide for understanding the transition to renewable-energy frameworks. The text covers a wide range of cross-disciplinary topics necessary for planning and implementing energy changes in urban environments. Readers can explore critical subjects including carbon emissions policy, the role of embodied energy, and urban thermal performance planning. The book also addresses practical social and technical aspects such as building efficiency services, energy poverty alleviation, and renewable community support networks. By studying household-level bio-fuel markets and other key areas, professionals and students can better understand the complex requirements of building the cities of the future.
