Energy is also a regenerating impulse, an active factor in the evolution of the planet, our culture and our lifestyles. In this important historical period that has revolutionized our worldview, we are going through a phase of energy transition that according to the indications of the 2030 agenda of the United Nations can enable us to meet the challenge of climate change. From the house to the city, to new extra-urban habitats: mapping the changes in the field of energy saving.
