Urban 3D building morphology and energy consumption: empirical evidence from 53 cities in China

Abstract The impact of building morphology on building energy consumption has been extensively studied. However, research on how 3D building morphology affects energy consumption at a macroscopic scale is lacking. In this study, we measured the mean building height (BH), mean building volume (BV), a...
