Among the main components of a smart city, the energy system plays a vital and core role in
the transition towards a sustainable urban life. Furthermore, the utilization of renewable …

We present a comprehensive review of modelling approaches and associated software tools
that address district-level energy systems. Buildings play an important role in urban energy …

MES (multi-energy systems) whereby electricity, heat, cooling, fuels, transport, and so on
optimally interact with each other at various levels (for instance, within a district, city or …

Abstract As Internet of Things (IoT) technologies enable greater communication between
energy assets in smart cities, the operational coordination of various energy networks in a …

Urban building energy models aspire to become key planning tools for the holistic
optimization of buildings, urban design, and energy systems in neighborhoods and districts …

In comparison with the power sector, large scale decarbonisation of heat has received
relatively little attention at the infrastructural scale despite its importance in the global CO2 …

Integrated energy system planning at the district level can contribute towards the sustainable
transformation of the building sector by unlocking solutions beyond individual buildings. This …

Multienergy systems (MES) can optimally deploy their internal operational flexibility to use
combinations of different energy vectors to meet the needs of end-users and potentially …

The pressing issue of climate change has led to a growing concern for low-carbon energy
transformation. Urban energy internet (UEI) provides a means to facilitate renewable energy …

The urban energy transition represents a transformation of such magnitude that it will require
