This project is focusing on the development of a space resolved database to support integral energy planning for cities, communities and building complexes. The main aim is to identify the potential for energetic optimization of buildings, locations for constructing district cooling networks and potential to integrate renewable energies. A database of the building stock will be developed for a selected area or region and will be joined with map data, based on a Geographical Information System (GIS). The building database will be connected to a building model and infrastructure energy relevant data, as production and distribution of energy, will be also collected as a basis for calculations.
