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.

ENER-BI: Integrating Energy and Spatial Data for Cities’ Decarbonisation Planning: Integrating energy and spatial data for cities’ decarbonisation planning [PDF]
Given the current climate emergency, our planet is suffering. Mitigation measures must be urgently deployed in urban environments, which are responsible for more than 70% of global CO2 emissions. In this sense, a deeper integration between energy and urban planning disciplines is a key factor for effective decarbonisation in urban environments. This is
