We cannot effectively reduce the carbon-related urban energy use without first having a good method for measuring it at an effective scale. Most prior research has usually …
This paper presents the development of an energy and carbon model of existing dwellings and its application to urban housing. The model is used to predict the energy use and CO2 …

To achieve the CO2 reductions deemed necessary to limit the impact of adverse climate change will require real changes in the way we both use and supply energy. Although …
About 3 billion people still rely on traditional sources of fuel. Biomass-based fuels were responsible for more than 4 million deaths in 2012. Household energy consumption is …
The process of urbanization has been shown to be important for economic development, environmental impacts and human wellbeing, particularly in developing countries. In this …
Urban areas constitute over three-fourths of the current global economy, house more than half of the global population and consume more than two thirds of final global energy …
This paper presents a two-step approach to forecasting city-wide building energy demand. The initial engineering estimates with input from typical buildings are used as the priori …
