Prioritizing Renewable Energy Projects Amid Tight Urban Planning Deadlines With urban planning deadlines fast approaching, prioritizing renewable energy projects demands a strategic and efficient approach. Here's how I tackle this challenge: Align with Regulations and Goals – Ensure compliance with green building standards and sustainability targets. Focus on High-Impact Solutions – Prioritize scalable technologies like solar PV, geothermal systems, and hybrid solutions for maximum efficiency. Leverage Pre-Engineered Systems – Adopt modular HVAC designs and prefabricated components to accelerate timelines. Integrate Smart Energy Management – Optimize performance through smart controls and energy storage systems.

In my opinion, it's best to Keep it simple, I figure out what's most important (like environmental impact and community support) and give each factor a score. Then I would look at the total cost over the project's lifetime, not just the initial price. Another important aspect is finding the best spots for solar and wind power, while minimizing harm to nature, using satelliteimage and local geomaps for example. I would reach out to get input from residents and businesses about what they want and worry about. Lastly, Teaming up and sharing, work with universities, businesses, and other cities to share knowledge and resources.

Creo firmemente que los proyectos de intervención en el sector de energías renovables deberían ser tramitados en chile, mediante el standar de construcción, que se regulen ante la dirección de obras municipales junto a la súper intendencia de energías y combustible, en cuanto a lo operacional es clave la buena relación con los proveedores, tanto para la implementación como para la post venta una vez instalados.

Feasibility studies powered by Al would help show the long term return from renewable energy projects. Government's think vertically. However usually the solution is in looking towards businesses by thinking horizontally. This is since business think long term to profit and survive and thrive. Whilst governments think short term to solve quickly.

We have to think about our common future in a way we are able to make changes, small changes that may lead to bigger changes, trusting in the butterfly effect theory. I belive in bottom up strategies that come from the empowered communities. Let's propose small and feaseble actions, instead of keep talking with big words and expecting others to accomplish the action. I do change my daily life.
