How do you envision the city
of the future?
IE Business School
Ahadjon Ismatov
Outline
• Demographics in Cities
– Urbanization and Immigration
– Overpopulation and Aging
• Environment and City
– Global warming and climate change
– More green space in urban areas
• Energy in Future Cities
– Fossil fuels vs. renewable energy
– Carbon capture and sequestration
• Public Transport
– Low carbon urban transport
– Electric & hybrid cars
• Urban Buildings
– Self-sufficient buildings
Many cities in
the world are
expected to
become very
overcrowded
because people
are moving from
countryside to
cities in search
of work and
better lifestyle
Although some industrialized nations are struggling with aging,
this might be offset by immigrants/expats coming from
developing countries, where overpopulation is an issue.
Urbanization and Overpopulation
Unless serious precautions will be taken, overpopulation and
urbanization might create serious issues in cities, where facilities,
such as water supplies and public transport cannot cope with
demand from increased number of people.
Metropolitan Cities
More metropolitan areas will be created to
accommodate increased number of urban
dwellings
Environment and City
Urbanization creates challenges for the environment
Air pollution from carbon dioxide, sulfur oxide,
greenhouse gases, etc. might lead to global warming and
climate change
More green spaces will be needed in cities
Renewable Energy in Future Cities
More solar and wind power will be generated
Industrial facilities, like chemical and power
plants, that use fossil fuel will be equipped with
carbon capture and sequestration technologies
Public Transport
Infrastructure will be renewed by transforming urban centers into
efficient, sustainable cities using integrated water system, green
economy, reuse and smart grid infrastructure and fast urban transportation
systems
Private Cars and City Streets
Electric and hybrid vehicles will replace tradition ones
Driverless cars with electric engines will proliferate
Urban Buildings
More energy self-sufficient homes will be available
Urban Dwellers
People will be more environmentally friendly
and have moral obligation to save their cities
clean for future generations
Thank you for your attention !!!
In summary, every city is unique and needs to assert itself on the global
stage. There is no one-size-fits-all approach. The future of any city must
adequately serve the needs of its communities and must be rooted in its
own individual identity and its own model of urban environment shaped
by its heritage
