The built environment sector is one of the main sources of greenhouse gas emissions and resource depletion that contributes to the climate change crisis. The European Commission, in the “Green New Deal”, highlights that the sustainable regeneration/requalification of existing buildings plays a fundamental role to maximize the objective of decarbonization and resource conservation for 2050. The aim of this study was to understand how historic buildings’ energy retrofit projects can contribute to achieve this goal. In this study, we made a life cycle assessment to evaluate an energy retrofit project of Villa Vannucchi, an historic building located in San Giorgio a Cremano (Naples). The results of this application showed that the use of hemp material, for walls’ thermal insulation, significantly reduces the percentage of environmental impacts in the entire material life cycle (compared with traditional materials). This was because the plant removes a significant percentage of CO2 already from the atmosphere when it is growing. In conclusion, the assessment of different design scenarios that promote the use of innovative technologies and materials can be of high utility to designers to compare and choose efficient solutions for the sustainable/circular renovation of historic buildings.

The circular city is emerging as new concept and form of practice in sustainable urban development. This is a response to the complex and pressing challenges of urbanization, as highlighted in the New Urban Agenda (NUA). The concept of a “circular city” or “circular city-region” derives from the circular economy model applied in the spatial territorial dimension. It can be associated with the concept of a “self-sustainable” regenerative city, as stated in paragraph n.71 of the NUA. This paper aims to develop an extensive form of “screening” of circular economy actions in emerging circular cities, focusing on eight European historic port cities self-defined as “circular”. The analysis is carried out as a review of circular economy actions in the selected cities, and specifically aims to identify the key areas of implementation in which the investments in the circular economy are more oriented, as well as to analyze the spatial implications of the reuse of buildings and sites, proposing a set of criteria and indicators for ex-ante and ex-post evaluations and monitoring of circular cities. Results show that the built environment (including cultural heritage), energy and mobility, waste management, water management, industrial production (including plastics, textiles, and industry 4.0 and circular design), agri-food, and citizens and communities can be adopted as strategic areas of implementation of the circular city model in historic cities, highlighting a lack of indicators in some sectors and identifying a possible framework for “closed” urban metabolism evaluation from a life-cycle perspective, focusing on evaluation criteria and indicators in the (historic) built environment.

The UNESCO Recommendations on Historic Urban Landscape (2011) recognises the fundamental role of cultural heritage and landscape for sustainable local development. The operative tool available for the assessment of the impacts of requalification projects on historic urban landscape is the heritage impact assessment (HIA). In this research, HIA has been applied to evaluate the impacts of a requalification project for Torre Annunziata waterfront. The aim is to demonstrate that this method is a fundamental tool to understand the impacts on the integrity and authenticity of heritage resources, but not enough to define the tangible and intangible values of the cultural heritage, that assume different features in the different international urban areas. This tool lacks an economic and social perspective and a certain evaluation of the impacts for different planning strategies. In this paper, a new tool has been proposed to assess the economic and social impacts of cultural heritage conservation/transformation/regeneration, allowing interdisciplinary research and collaboration among stakeholders, capable of defining some guidelines to improve requalification projects in a win-win perspective. The results of this new method have been used to define a new project for Torre Annunziata waterfront based on the principles of the “circular economy”. Subsequently some key indicators have been identified to measure the economic, social and environmental performance of the project. The circular economy is capable of restoring the city’s identity and increasing the tangible and intangible value, according to the UNESCO recommendations.
