Nature-based solutions (NBS) are currently being deployed in many European Commission Horizon 2020 projects in reaction to the increasing number of environmental threats, such as climate change, unsustainable urbanization, degradation and loss of natural capital and ecosystem services. In this research, we consider the application of NBS as a catalyst for social inclusivity in urban regeneration strategies, enabled through civic participation in the co-creation of green interventions with respect to social cohesion and wellbeing. This article is focused on a social monitoring framework elaborated within the H2020 CLEVER Cities project, with the city of Milan as a case study. Firstly, we overviewed the major regeneration challenges and expected co-benefits of the project, which are mainly human health and wellbeing, social cohesion and environmental justice, as well as citizen perception about safety and security related to the NBS implementation process. Secondly, we examined the relevance of using NBS in addressing social co-benefits by analyzing data from questionnaires against a set of five major indicators, submitted to citizens and participants of activities during pre-greening interventions: (1) Place, use of space and relationship with nature, (2) Perceived ownership and sense of belonging, (3) Psychosocial issues, social interactions and social cohesion, (4) Citizen perception about safety and security, and lastly, we analyzed (5) knowledge about CLEVER interventions and NBS benefits in relation to socio-demographics of the questionnaires’ respondents. Thirdly, we cross-referenced a wind-rose multi-model of co-benefits analysis for NBS across the regeneration challenges of the project. Because of the COVID-19 emergency, in this research we mainly focused on site observations and online questionnaires, as well as on monitoring pre-greening scenarios in three Urban Living Labs (ULLs) in Milan, namely CLEVER Action Labs. Lastly, this study emphasizes the expected social added values of NBS impact over long-term urban regeneration projects. Insights from the pre-greening surveys results accentuate the importance of the NBS interventions in citizens’ perceptions about their wellbeing, general health and strong sense of neighborhood belonging. A wider interest towards civic participation in co-management and getting informed about NBS interventions in the Milanese context is also noted.

Building retrofit is often reported to fail in achieving predicted energy savings; this mismatch in post-retrofit conditions is labeled the ‘energy performance gap’ and may be due to both occupant behavior and technical issues. In this study, the occupant is investigated through a case study of a recently retrofitted public housing in Milan inhabited by 500+ tenants. Informed by social practice theory and interviews to households, concurrent and interdependent elements in heating space are identified—including factors of comfort, competences involved and other interconnected practices. Patterns of continuity and change in setting thermal conditions in this retrofitted building emerge. In this respect, key dynamics of the occupants are related to rooted habits in managing heating, social norms of thermal comfort, mastered skills in dealing with technical devices and infrastructure and ways of organizing other routines such as laundry and forms of entertainment when services are limitedly accessible. The results inform plans for energy efficiency through building retrofit in which the integration of the social dimension and practices may contribute to maximizing the impact of the intervention and to limiting energy performance gap.

The present paper concerns the assessment of biomass by-products from the urban greenery maintenance with an energy perspective. Usually pruning is not organized by a consolidated planning practice, mainly because of lack of information. After estimating the quantity of wood pruning by-products by means of dendrometric equations and the availability of information on current greenery management, an innovative GIS-based method was implemented and tested on Milan, in northern Italy. The main outcome is the quantification of the energy potential in terms of available wood biomass, displayed on a geo-referred urban map. Moreover, the outcomes of the research could support the administrations in improving the management of these materials otherwise wasted and therefore in converting public expenses for maintenance into public profits available for further investments. On the energy supply side, the GIS database could support the local matching between available renewable sources and energy supply systems in operation (i.e. local district heating and cogenerative systems), providing a low-range and cost-effective renewable resource, also enhancing circular economy at the local scale.

The current European Union biodiversity strategy is failing to reach its targets aimed at halting biodiversity loss by 2020, and eyes are already set at the post-2020 strategy. The European Commission is encouraging the active role of citizens in achieving policy objectives in the coming years. In this paper, we explore ways citizens discuss their priorities regarding biodiversity and abilities to influence environmental problems at individual, collective and policy levels. We also examine how the citizen discussions resonate with scientific environmental priorities and how researchers see the role of citizens in policy processes and harmonising citizen and scientific knowledge. To pursue the citizen voices, an expert working group acting as knowledge brokers, facilitated a series of citizen workshops in seven European locations and a reflective researcher workshop in Belgium. Based on the results, participants identified many concrete and value-related measures to stop environmental degradation. The environmental priorities differed between citizens and scientists, but not irreconcilably; rather, they complemented one another. Both groups stressed environmentally minded attitudes in individuals and policy. Displaying diversity of perspectives was regarded as positive and adding legitimacy. Improving methods for balanced encounters among science and society is central for participation to become more than rhetoric in the EU.

This paper presents a novel climate mitigation action index to evaluate various aspects linked to the implementation of Sustainable Energy Action Plans (SEAP), which define the carbon dioxide emission reduction targets and outline the key actions to achieve these at the municipal level. A SEAP Implementation Index (SII) is developed and applied to study climate change mitigation actions implemented by 102 Municipalities belonging to the Metropolitan City of Milan (Italy) in the framework of the Covenant of Mayors (CoM). The SII is composed of six categories and 16 sub-indicators and results in a final score ranging from 1 to 10. The average rating obtained in the case study area is 4.2, and only eleven Municipalities achieved an evaluation higher than 6. The sensitivity analysis shows the index robustness against variations in the applied weight factors. The population engagement and the management of the initiative, neglected by many Municipalities mostly because of a lack of funding and personnel, are identified as the most critical aspects. Despite the massive participation in the CoM, no quantitative analysis of the SEAPs implementation has been proposed until now and this study shows some severe shortcomings in their application.

Sharing as the negotiation of a multitude of factors and practices Sharing strengthen social relationships at the risk of uncomfortable in duty bounds. The convenience of sharing may be higher in smaller scales. Digital dynamics and online environments are not necessarily enablers of sharing urban practices. Participatory approach facilitates sharing dynamics understanding and local development.

Urban solar radiation is a primary factor affecting indoor and outdoor thermal and lighting comfort. However, although 3D solar radiation models are achieving remarkable advances in urban climate planning support and decision making, they are time-consuming and cost-intensive. We aim at compensating for such limitations by providing an agile approach to estimate shadows and solar radiation on building facades, using elevation models (2.5D) and image processing techniques. This is achieved by making the best use of the new visibility toolset for raster processing, provided in ArcGIS, and GRASS GIS solar radiation 2D model. Results give a clear and detailed picture of the radiation condition in the study area, which offers promising opportunities for urban solar planning and assessment in complex urban areas.

Climate change causes a critical increase of temperature and frequency of heat waves, whose impact is particularly sensitive within the urban environment. Here, the loss of natural areas, beside morphological and thermal properties, makes urban temperature to be significantly higher compared to peri-urban and rural areas. This phenomenon is commonly known as urban heat island (UHI). Because green infrastructure provides an effective strategy for reducing the UHI effect, we explore the feasibility of remotely sensed data and statistical modelling for assessing the effectiveness of green measures. We simulated how implementing green roofs over the city of Milan could affect temperature. Geographically weighted regression has been used to model the correlation among satellite-derived vegetation map and near-surface air temperature.

In many EU countries, the existing private condominium buildings represent an important energy problem to the attainment of the EU energy objectives for 2020 and beyond. 41.7% of EU population lives in flats that are responsible for 68% of total energy use in buildings. Deep renovation of residential private buildings is, therefore, a paramount and critical issue for the achievement of the EU targets for building stocks. Where property is fragmented among many small owners, like in condominiums, the decision process is the major obstacle to the uptake of an adequate deep renovation. In “Sharing Cities”, a project granted by H2020 program under smart cities and communities initiatives, this barrier has been overcome through an innovative methodology based on citizens’ participation and the collaboration between public and private sector. This paper describes the methodology and reports the last results to-date for the lighthouse city of Milan.

Post-occupancy evaluations of building energy performances after retrofit often show values of energy use higher than calculated during the design phase. This performance gap is due to different factors, among which the user behaviour plays a crucial role. In the context of public housing, in particular, the techno-centric approach which is usually adopted during all the work phases tends to omit the involvement and information of the inhabitants, leading to ways of living not consistent with optimal uses of the building services and components. To tackle this limit, EnerPOP, a project funded by Politecnico di Milano, is developing a methodology for reconciling technical and social aspects in the refurbishment of public housing assets. A case study is adopted to experiment and optimize the methodology, engaging tenants of a public residential building in Milan, deeply renovated in 2014 and inhabited by 500+ people originating from over 30 different countries. The paper reports interim findings, after one year of activities, both in terms of knowledge of the building and its inhabitants and early results in terms of energy saving and social cohesion.

The paper presents the core methodology for assessing solar radiation and energy production on building rooftops and vertical facades (still rarely considered) of the inner-city. This integrated tool is based on the use of LiDAR, 2D and 3D cadastral data. Together with solar radiation and astronomical models, it calculates the global irradiance for a set of points located on roofs, ground, and facades. Although the tool takes simultaneously roofs, ground, and facades, different methods of shadow casting are applied. Shadow casting on rooftops is based on image processing techniques. On the other hand, the assessment on facade involves first to create and interpolate points along the facades and then to implement a point-by-point shadow casting routine. The paper is structured in five parts: (i) state of the art on the use of 3D GIS and automated processes in assessing solar radiation in the built environment, (ii) overview on the methodological framework used in the paper, (iii) detailed presentation of the method proposed for solar modeling and shadow casting, in particular by introducing an innovative approach for modeling the sky view factor (SVF), (iv) demonstration of the solar model introduced in this paper through applications in Geneva’s building roofs (solar cadaster) and facades, (v) validation of the solar model in some Geneva’s spots, focusing especially on two distinct comparisons: solar model versus fisheye catchments on partially inclined surfaces (roof component); solar model versus photovoltaic simulation tool PVSyst on vertical surfaces (facades). Concerning the roof component, validation results emphasize global sensitivity related to the density of light sources on the sky vault to model the SVF. The low dense sky model with 145 light sources gives satisfying results, especially when processing solar cadasters in large urban areas, thus allowing to save computation time. In the case of building facades, introducing weighting factor in SVF calculation leads to outputs close to those obtained by PVSyst. Such good validation results make the proposed model a reliable tool to: (i) automatically process solar cadaster on building rooftops and facades at large urban scales and (ii) support solar energy planning and energy transition policies.

This study looks at the effect of daylighting on human performance. It includes a focus on glare index combined with the actual feeling of users of the classroom as a way to assess indoor lighting quality. The main objective of this research is to understand the impact of daylighting from windows on the glare sensation and also to determine which glare index is the closest to human visual sensation under local daylighting conditions in Biskra, Algeria with highly luminous climate. The study used High Dynamic Range (HDR) photography, Evaglare and Aftab Alpha software to calculate the two glare metrics Daylight Glare, Index (DGI) and the Daylight Glare Probability (DGP). A survey was also used with 90 occupants under different lighting conditions (different configurations) in a design classroom. In order to link the mathematical model and the human assessment of glare, statistical regression analysis was used. We established a statistically compelling connection between daylighting and student performance

Strategic planning in higher education provides insight on the sustainability priorities of many colleges and universities worldwide. Researchers from the International Sustainable Campus Network (ISCN), a global forum for leading universities to exchange ideas and best practices for integrating sustainability into campus operations, research, and teaching, investigated the trending themes in strategic planning found in scholarly literature and 24 of its member colleges and universities. This paper aims to outline the common themes and trends ISCN researchers observed in scholarly literature focused on strategic sustainability planning and sample ISCN colleges and universities. The methodology approach was based in theoretical literature background and empirical evidence noted on college and university websites. Common themes observed included climate change resiliency and adaptation, collaboration, health and wellbeing, and urban planning, among others. While overall there was a significant degree of similarity between strategic plans in different regions, ISCN researchers also observed some regional differences in strategic planning in higher education. For example, strategic planning in North America includes energy, education, and health as topics of particular emphasis, while in Europe focus topics in planning tend to emphasize innovation and urban planning. Additionally, ISCN researchers assessed the time frame of publicly stated strategic sustainability plans, with planning horizon being most often mid-term with a 4–6 year planning period. Due to the scope of the study and the nature of the methodological approach, these results should not be regarded as representative of all strategic planning in higher education and scholarly literature. This research is meant to provide a basis for trends in strategic planning during the timeframe in which the research was conducted.
