Abstract
Throughout the book, sustainability is approached from economic, environmental, and social perspectives, in large part because this multidimensional topic requires a comprehensive approach, at governmental, corporate, and individual levels. For this reason, the various tools available used to monitor activities that seek to impact sustainability are presented. Energy sustainability is a fundamental pillar of sustainable development since it helps ensure that the activities of society are carried out. This is relevant since, in many cities, energy resources are being used without having a defined long-term plan. For that reason, it is necessary to select properly energy resources and their usage for the various human activities in a city. In this book, an emphasis is placed on efficient energy management.
