"The impact of infrastructures such as transportation, water, health, and energy on urban form and architecture is a fact. With the beginning of the 21st century, buildings and cities are becoming physical and software systems in addition to collections of material and shapes. Water, energy, transportation and health infrastructure are thus crucial dimensions for the design of the future sustainable urban systems and the human habitat." We can see here the simple fact of infrastructure on the smallest scale of energy. Distribution within the building in construction process is a micro mirror of the expanded view of electrical systems that increase to urban area distribution for communities, then city grids that can be underground or on poles, to eventually the final connection of a National or even International grid which constitutes powerplants, reservoirs and the like, all to power Urban areas.
