Abstract: Climate change will affect people's health, especially in cities. Hence, energy planning will play a key role in the development of sustainable and resilient cities. Urban building energy models facilitate energy planning as heating and cooling demand becomes known, and the consequences of different planning actions can be modelled. This research presents an agile heating and cooling demand model. It combines a European standard's methodology, geometric information of buildings collected from cadastral and altimetric datasets using GIS-based technologies, solar irradiation analysis and the degree-days method. The model is validated with various case studies and then applied to several buildings in different environments.
