""… Furthermore, the advent of electric vehicles will play a pivotal role in the development of smart cities. By reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting sustainable transportation, we can create urban environments that are cleaner, healthier, and more livable. Electric vehicles, when combined with renewable energy sources, contribute to carbon neutrality, paving the way for zero carbon cities and ultimately a zero-carbon society. Prof. Chan’s recent book on Integration of Energy, Information, Transportation and Humanity – Renaissance from Digitization by top publisher Elsevier laid down the fundamental theory and practice in this area, pointed out the significance of the philosophy of the integration of humanity world, cyber world and physical world."" --From Address by Mr. Neil Bush at the Inaugural Ceremony of Research Center for Electric Vehicles at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, 26 February, 2024
