Urban Energy Planning

Urban Energy Planning refers to the strategic process of designing and managing energy systems within urban areas. It involves the assessment of energy needs, resources, and infrastructure to ensure efficient, sustainable, and equitable energy use. This planning process incorporates various elements, including renewable energy integration, energy efficiency measures, demand forecasting, and the development of policies and regulations. Urban energy planning aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, enhance energy security, and improve the overall quality of life for urban residents. It often involves collaboration among stakeholders, including government agencies, utility companies, businesses, and community organizations, to create a comprehensive energy strategy that addresses both current and future energy challenges in urban environments.
