Smart tools for energy resilient city

The contemporary city, for its complexity, often fails to give answers to the various problems concerned with environmental hazard and with energy supply. The assumed paper, in line with what is stipulated in the field of Smart and Sustainable Cities, is aimed at achieving efficient management of urban resources through a number of actions concerning the urban “layout” (urban morphologies and relationship between settlement areas, attractors and traffic generators); energy efficiency (which you get with the reuse of waters), buildings (concerning the reuse of waters for heating), mobility (through the development of a system of green infrastructures and means of electric and hybrid mobility), water quality (through constructed wetlands trails and sewage for agricultural purposes), air quality (through solutions aiming to favor the development of alternative mobility). It is also planned the implementation of Community policies such as the "EU Water Framework Directive", the "EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020", the "EU Climate Change Adaptation Strategy", "The Blueprint to safeguard Europe's water". some best practices Are presented as Rotterdam, Heerlen and Turnhout that show how energy is integrated in the urban support scheme.
