Big Problem: Buildings and Transportation
In the 21st century about 90% of population growth will be in urban areas; these will account
for 60% of the population and 80% of the wealth. Hence, the pattern of future energy
demand will increasingly be determined by urban networks.
Transportation and building operations typically account for at least 60% of urban energy
use.
In congested urban areas, about 40% of total gasoline use is in cars looking for parking.

Renewable Power, Energy Storage, and Smart
Grids
With large-scale use,
car stacks throw
enormous battery
capacity into the
electrical grid.
Effective utilization of
inexpensive, off-peak
power and clean but
intermittent power
sources – solar, wind,
wave, etc.
A smart, distributed
power generation
system composed of
these sources (the
entire city as a virtual
power plant)
minimizes
transmission losses.

Nervous system
Pre-industrial cities consisted
essentially of skeleton and skin.
They provided shelter and
protection, and through
stacking floors vertically they
enabled intensification of land
use.
Cities of the industrial era
acquired extensive and
sophisticated artificial
physiologies: water supply and
drainage systems, energy
supply systems, and
mechanized transportation.
Cities of the digital information
era are developing integrated
electronic nervous systems.
Cities starts to operate as
intelligent organisms that make
coordinated responses to
changing conditions and needs.
