Spatial Development and Energy Consumption
Safirova, Elena A.; Houde, Sébastien; Harrington, Winston - 2007
Previous literature has suggested that the urban form (i.e., city size, density, and center distribution pattern) influences urban energy consumption. It has been argued that more dense development is likely to result in more energy-efficient and sustainable cities. However, very little is known...

Modernising state-level regulation and policies to boost mobility in the United States
Sutherland, Douglas - 2020
