A review of energy use in a sustainable city model

Energy has an important role in human life so it must be considered in its use. Its use is found in all sectors, namely transportation, industry and buildings. If energy usage is uncontrolled, the main problem that occurs is global warming which will damage the environment. Therefore, development planning in all sectors applies the concept of sustainable energy efficiency, especially for buildings and urban development. The efficient use of energy can minimize environmental damage and improve prosperity so that the results obtained in an environment are maximized. The Urban Modelling Interface is used as a simulation tool to find out energy use from the environment and cities. This paper provides not only a review of the literature on energy operations in sustainable development through the use of systems of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning but also an evaluation related to factors that influence energy use and its standards in Indonesia. This research is expected to make a contribution related to the use of energy in city development. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
