With the continuous advancement of urbanization, the impact of inter-building effect on
urban energy use has been concerned. This paper makes a comprehensive review of the …

For a sustainable urban environment, the adoption of building-integrated photovoltaics
(BIPV) is a promising solution. Despite multiple studies on BIPV in individual buildings, scant …

Characterising and analysing urban morphology is a continuous task in urban data science,
environmental analyses, and many other domains. As the availability and quality of data on …

Urban form can significantly affect building energy consumption and solar energy potential,
which is essential to sustainable urban development. However, few studies have proposed …

The energy transition is increasingly being discussed and implemented to cope with the
growing environmental crisis. However, great challenges remain for effectively harvesting …

To estimate electricity generation and evaluate the socio-economic effects of solar
photovoltaic (PV) systems, it is critical to calculate the installed PV areas and quantify the …

Building geometries strongly constrain the on-site solar energy use. In this work, solar
energy use is measured by solar energy penetration and capital costs for the photovoltaic …

Abstract Incorporating Building-integrated Photovoltaics (BIPVs) into urban environments
offers a sustainable approach by transforming building exteriors into renewable energy …

Proper sunlight access has a positive impact on the physical and mental health of citizens,
as well as on reducing energy consumption. This capacity may be limited by inappropriate …

Addressing climate change and urban energy problems is a great challenge. Building
Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) plays a pivotal role in energy conservation and carbon …
