We are on the cusp of the most radical transformation in energy and transportation in a century. Exponentially improving technologies such as Electric Vehicles, Autonomous (self-driving) cars, and Solar and enabling technologies such as Sensors, Big Data, Mobile Internet, Cloud, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, and the Internet of Things are turning the industrial-era energy and transportation industries upside down and making the gasoline vehicle and the whole urban transportation infrastructure obsolete.

Tony Seba's new book “Clean Disruption of Energy and Transportation” projects that by 2030:
• All new mass-market vehicles will be electric.
• All of these vehicles will be autonomous (self-driving) or semi-autonomous.
• Up to 80% of parking spaces and highways will be redundant
• Taxis as we know them will be obsolete.
• The Car Insurance industry will be disrupted.
• The concept of car ownership will be obsolete.

This is the video of Tony Seba's "Auckland Conversations" presentation in Auckland, New Zealand on July 15th, 2014. It focuses on the key technology megatrends such as electric vehicles and self-driving cars that are reshaping public and private transportation and how city planners can stay one step ahead in rethinking and redrawing the transportation landscape in a clean, sustainable, and budget-conscious way.
