A Parametric Modelling Approach for Energy Retrofitting Heritage Buildings
The Case of Amsterdam City Centre
The city of Amsterdam has ambitious goals to achieve a 95% reduction in carbon emissions by 2050 and to phase out natural gas by 2040. Disconnecting the building stock from natural gas requires well-ventilated and well-insulated buildings and a switch to renewable energy sources,

Parametric modelling to support homeowner energy retrofits in heritage buildings at the early design stage
The joint deployment of energy reduction actions across multiple buildings at once is much needed to reach climate targets, but collective decision-making with shared ownership is a complex process. Each homeowner is accountable for their own energy use, while being constrained b

From Nuisance to Nurture
Using Residual Heat for Low-Temperature Local Heating Systems in Cities
According to the Paris Agreement, cities need to be carbon neutral by 2050. This entails a dramatic transition from a fossil fuel based built environment to one entirely running on renewable energy. In many European cities this means moving away from natural gas as prime source.

The design of collective decision-making processes for community driven retrofitting
The deployment of energy reduction actions jointly across multiple buildings at once are much needed to reach the climate targets of reaching a reduction of 3.4 megatons of CO2 for the built environment. In the Netherlands, over 1.5 million homes are part of associations of co-ow

By the year 2040, Amsterdam aims to be independent from natural gas, and by 2050 the entire city needs to be carbon neutral; to meet these ambitions it is crucial to define a long-term strategy for the historical city centre, the area with the highest heat demand density. The inn

The notion of green cities is not green enough. There is a necessity to readapt consumption modes and rethink urban spaces in order to ensure the long-term viability of the built environment. Urban agriculture on roofs could play a great role in this transformation process. The q
