This book is a great opportunity to make the research community discuss the dangerous environmental challenges such as climate change and its huge effects in addition to the world's reliance on fossil fuel and non-renewable resources.
In recent years, the authors have been focused on the advancements of technology and how it can improve our lives, but the authors often overlook the fact that it is creating an unsustainable approach that comes at a high cost which makes a sustainable approach to cities necessary, focusing on accessible public transport, energy, water, and food security, and regenerating compact fabric areas.
To discuss how to reach this sustainable approach, IEREK held the Advances in Energy Research, Materials Science and Built Environment (EMBE) conference from October 3 to 4, 2024, with attendees from all over the world.
It provides an opportunity to exchange ideas and solutions on urban planning, sustainable architecture, climate change mitigation, and innovative design.
The EMBE conference hosts a variety of knowledgeable keynote speakers and researchers who discussed the integration of technology in sustainable urban planning, green urbanism, preservation of coastal areas, innovative renewable materials, and responsive architecture. The book covers a wide range of scientific knowledge that can lead humanity toward a sustainable and greener future.

Sanjay Kumar
Dr. Sanjay Kumar is currently working as Assistant Professor in Department of Mechanical Engineering at Dr B R Ambedkar National Institute of Technology, Jalandhar (India) {An Institute of National Importance, Government of India} since January, 2018. He has worked on both thermal comfort assessment and building energy efficiency measures through adoption of passive design in Indian context during his PhD tenure. Dr Sanjay had an experience of working under an international project. The author worked as a Senior Research Fellow under the Indo-US joint collaborative project of Center for Building Energy Research and Development (CBERD) under the umbrella of Indo-US Partnership to Advance Clean Energy (PACE). Dr Sanjay have gained significant knowledge of thermal comfort, passive design and energy modeling of different built environment by publishing a number of research papers in international journals of repute with high impact factors like Building and Environment, Energy and Buildings, Journal of Building Engineering, Renewable Energy, Applied Thermal Engineering etc. The aim of the investigator is to develop a route or methodology for assessing the sustainable and energy efficient buildings in India to support the Government of Indias energy conservation initiatives.
