With the world increasingly facing the effects of climate change and the energy crisis, innovative approaches to achieve climate breakthroughs and build more resilient cities are essential. In this sense, renewable powered cities ⎼ cities powered entirely by renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and geothermal⎼, decarbonizing high-tech industries, and urban circularity emerge as critical components for achieving that goal. How can cities effectively implement these solutions to withstand the impacts of climate change and create a more sustainable future for all?
