Sustainable mobility is a highly complex problem as it is affected
by the interactions between socio-economic, environmental,
technological and political issues. Energy, Transport, & the
Environment: Addressing the Sustainable Mobility Paradigm brings
together leading figures from business, academia and governments to
address the challenges and opportunities involved in working
towards sustainable mobility. Key thinkers and decision makers
approach topics and debates including: energy security and resource
scarcity greenhouse gas and pollutant emissions urban planning,
transport systems and their management governance and finance of
transformation *the threats of terrorism and climate change to our
transport systems. Introduced by a preface from U.S. Secretary of
Energy, Steven Chu and an outline by the editors, Dr Oliver
Inderwildi and Sir David King, Energy, Transport, & the
Environment is divided into six sections. These sections address
and explore the challenges and opportunities for energy supply,
road transport, urban mobility, aviation, sea and rail, as well as
finance and economics in transport. Possible solutions, ranging
from alternative fuels to advanced urban planning and policy
levers, will be examined in order to deepen the understanding of
currently proposed solutions within the political realities of the
dominating economic areas. The result of this detailed
investigation is an integrated view of sustainable transport for
both people and freight, making Energy, Transport, & the
Environment key reading for researchers, decision makers and policy
experts across the public and private sectors.

The book explains the need to decarbonise energy supplies, urban
systems and industrial processes to reduce global greenhouse gases
and meet the ambitious emissions reduction goals set out in the
Paris Agreement 2016. It discusses how the introduction of AI to
cyber-physical systems (CPS) can do this, using illustrations
throughout to highlight the potential impacts. Intelligent
Decarbonisation comprehensively assesses the current and future
impact of digital technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) on
the decarbonisation of key economic sectors. The book is divided
into four parts – Technology, Impact, Implications and Incubation
– moving clearly from the theoretical and technical to the
real-world effects and areas for future development. It also
presents insights into the economic and environmental
transformation fostered by digital technologies. Intelligent
Decarbonisation brings together work from private and public sector
professionals, academics and think tank experts, and provides truly
comprehensive insights into the topic. It is an interesting and
informative text for policymakers, researchers and industry
professionals alike.
