C024 — Infomophism: An Urban Planning Framework for Local Renewable Energy Integration

Click here to purchase

We introduce Infomorphism, an urban planning framework that takes the main characteristics of Zero Energy Buildings (ZEBs) as the principal drivers for the simultaneous planning of a city’s collective urban form and energy infrastructure. This paper outlines the three main computational models of the infomorphism framework: 1) a parametric model for the development of an energy-based urban planning envelope, 2) a quantitative model to predict renewable energy supply and building demand, and 3) an optimization model to develop local energy exchange networks. Manhattan is used as a case study for the implementation and assessment of the framework.
