There were five sections identified in the chapter case study and they walked us through each one explaining what happened in each. Identify and name them, and provide a brief statement about each section. Chapter 18 According to literature review and the EU Energy Security and ICT Policy, the authors indicated that, the points of departure of the EUs (European Commission 2007) energy policy was threefold: combating climate change, limiting the EUs external vulnerability to imported hydrocarbons, and promoting growth and jobs, thereby providing secure and affordable energy for consumers. The main focus of the EUs policy ideally was to move towards a single global regime and the mainstreaming of climate into other policies; and hence receiving a 20% portion out of the entire 20142020 EU budget. The focus at the urban level was to produce the greatest results in an energy-efficient effort that will integrate three sectors. Chapter 18: When looking further into the EUs Energy Security and ICT sustainable urban development, and government policy efforts: Chapter 19 The digital divide remains formidable in scaling information and communication technology (ICT)-enabled opportunities for effective leadership and development in countries lagging behind, (Ahmed, 2015).

However, the challenges to meet this pressure could be enormous, but not insurmountable, and the means to address such challenges are abundantly available in ICT-supported processes like e-Participation. Chapter 19 Buente, and Robbin (2008), and lbert (2011) outlined different angles in conceptualizing digital divide. They included subjects, characteristics, means, intensity, and purpose of connectivity corresponding to inquiries of who, which, what, how and why. On the other hand, Huang and Chen (2010) added the dynamics of evolution to address the questions of whether and when. Purchase the answer to view it
