Building energy prediction
In Canada, it is estimated that buildings account for 30—40% of total energy consumption and 13% of direct greenhouse gas emissions. We try to predict building energy consumption at the city scale, using a building energy model inside the Town Energy Balance model for major Canadian cities.

Building energy mitigation and thermal equity
To mitigate building energy use and to achieve better thermal equity among various socioeconomic groups in the city, we explore the effects and different deployment plans of novel roofing options such as green roofs and rooftop photovoltaic panels.
