π® — Closing the Energy Circle: The Big Picture

Every generation of mobility has changed the way vehicles are powered, yet one assumption has largely remained untouched. What happens when that assumption is challenged? From linear energy consumption to circular energy thinking, from parked vehicles to energy-active systems, this perspective explores how architecture, physics, and engineering intersect to rethink the relationship between transportation and energy, while keeping scientific rigor and thermodynamic limits firmly in focus.
