Urban Energy Transition, Third Edition: Cities and Regions for a stable climate is the most current scientific and practice-based compendium on energy transformations in the global urban system. It also yields perspectives on climate stabilization and the need for comprehensive and additional climate action and policy frames that work in conjunction with the energy transition. This fresh volume examines both established and emerging economic, design, governance, policy and technology related insights and contains contributions from Africa, Asia, Australia, Central Europe and North America.
