Providing a comprehensive overview of the governance of urban infrastructures, this Companion combines illustrative cases with conceptual approaches to offer an innovative perspective on the governance of large urban infrastructure systems. Contributions by leading scholars in the field present a transdisciplinary approach to the topic, with a global scope.Chapters examine the challenges facing urban infrastructure systems, including financial, economic, technological, social, ecological, jurisdictional and demand. Using novel conceptualizations of urban infrastructure, and examining global cases of specific energy, mobility, water, housing, green and telecommunication systems, the Companion further illustrates how these challenges are interrelated with their governance. Finding efficiency, sustainability, and resilience to be key governance performance indicators, it concludes by highlighting the role that digitalization plays in making cities smarter and argues for the potential of digitalization for large urban infrastructure governance.With global significance, this Companion will be an invaluable read for students and scholars of urban studies, governance and infrastructure. The informative case studies will be an excellent resource for city practitioners, officials and policymakers.

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.
