Abstract :
An urban energy system describes the integration of energy demand, supply and distribution in an urban environment. This review examines the role of remote sensing to each of these urban energy system components. Specifically, the relevant fundamental physical or statistical energy-modelling principals are considered in relation to remote sensing inputs. We suggest that active remote sensing technologies offer substantial opportunities for informing a wide range of urban energy assessments.
