Abstract

Sustainable urban energy system is an important support and driving force for the high-quality development of urban economy and society. In the context of addressing climate change and energy transformation, this paper summarizes the stylized facts of urban and energy system evolution. A sustainable urban energy system analysis framework is proposed to analyze the logical framework of the energy system from the physical, information, and value layers. Further, this paper proposes a comprehensive indicator system for quantitatively evaluating the degree of coordination between urban development and energy systems, and provides a method for assessing the comprehensive benefits of sustainable urban energy systems.
