Climate change and urbanization are two major challenges when planning for sustainable energy transition in cities. The common approach demand estimation is using only typical meso-scale weather data building models (BEMs), which underestimates the impacts of extreme climate microclimate variations. To quantify such underestimation on assessing future performance buildings, this study simulates a high spatiotemporal resolution BEM representative residential buildings located 600 × m2 urban area Southeast Sweden while accounting both microclimate. Future synthesized 13 scenarios over 2010-2099, divided into three 30-year periods, generated considering morphology area. It revealed that can cause 17% rise cooling degree-day (CDD) 7% reduction heating (HDD) average compared to mesoclimate. Considering conditions, CDD increases by 45% HDD decreases 8% from one period another. Differences become much larger during conditions. For example, increase 500% an warm July one. Results also indicate annual becomes four five times bigger than 2010-2039 2040-2069 2070-2099, respectively. daily peak load up 25% day In absence systems days, indoor temperature stays above 26°C continuously week reaches 29.2°C. Moreover, overheating hours 140% future. These all not influencing variations result maladaptation or insufficient adaptation areas change.

Shared insights for heat health risk adaptation in metropolitan areas of developing countries

iScience, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 27(5), С. 109728 - 109728

Global warming has led to a surge in heat health risks (HHRs), the impacts of which are particularly pronounced metropolitan areas developing countries. In current study, six - Beijing, China; Cairo, Egypt; Jakarta, Indonesia; Mumbai, India; Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; and Tehran, Iran were selected as study area further differentiate built-up landscapes by utilizing concept local climate zones. Moreover, we assessed similarities differences HHR associated with landscape. Results revealed 30.67% higher compact than open type. Urban green spaces played an effective but differentiated role mitigating HHR. That is, low vegetation urbanized trees suburban significantly mitigated Collectively, our findings emphasize planning management addressing provide empirical support for implementing mitigation adaptation strategies.
