A transition to smart and renewable energy should start from the cities, since they are at the forefront of technological transitions, and it is more convenient for them to experiment innovations. This book first introduces the current energy problem of the world and the cities’ role for that. It then provides the required fundamentals on renewable energy, smart city and smart energy. The book also discusses the challenges that arise related to economics, ecology, society, technology, and jurisdictions during such transitions. By illustrating the case studies of the Tokyo and Seoul Metropolitans, the book also demonstrates how the administration of energy systems works and ought to operate.
