Towards a Sustainable Design: Integrating Spatial Planning with Energy Planning When Designing a University Campus

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Production and Management, 2023
Spatial planning and energy planning are two crucial topics related to each other, as both subjects have environmental, social, and economic benefits. Worldwide, few researchers have studied the integration of spatial planning with energy planning, however, in Jordan, this subject remained unexplored.

Spatial and temporal synchronization of water and energy systems: Towards a single integrated optimization model for long-term resource planning [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Energy, 2018
Feedback between the water and energy sectors exist across system life-cycles and link the resources both spatially and temporally. Tracking the impacts of policies made in one sector on the other can thus be complicated and several nexus methodologies have been developed to address these issues.
