City residents rely on hydroelectricity (and other power sources), but it has become increasingly scarce and expensive. Despite an impressive history as a world leader in developing active mobility and public transport, private car ownership continues to rise.

How can we create zero carbon neighborhoods that build on historic urban infrastructure and character, integrate multiple urban functions, and promote economic opportunity and green job growth for local residents?
