Sustainable Engineering Systems: Pathways to a Low-Carbon Future
The path to a Low-Carbon Future is no longer a choice; it is an engineering necessity. The global imperative to mitigate climate change requires a radical and rapid transformation of the systems that underpin modern society-our energy generation, our built environment, and our industrial processes. This book, Sustainable Engineering Systems: Pathways to a Low-Carbon Future, is conceived as a practical and strategic guide for navigating this transition.
It moves beyond mere policy and aspiration to focus on the applied engineering solutions-the technologies, models, and design philosophies-that will truly enable deep decarbonization. We adopt a holistic, systems-thinking approach, recognizing that isolated solutions are insufficient. True sustainability demands an integrated vision, connecting smart grids with electric vehicles, energy efficiency with renewable generation, and carbon capture with industrial processes.
Our intent is to provide a comprehensive, technically grounded framework, enabling engineers, designers, and decision-makers to implement resilient, cost-effective, and genuinely sustainable solutions. The transition will be complex, but by grounding our efforts in robust engineering principles, we can build the pathways to a net-zero world.
