Abstract
According to European Directive 2012/27/EU energy retrofitting of the current housing stock is being promoted. However, few studies have been carried outcharacterizing housing stock energy performance in order to incorporate energy retrofittingin cities in the southern Mediterranean area. The aim of this paper is to propose an energy assessment methodology on urban scale and to apply it to the southern Spanish province of Cadiz. This is followed by the generation of a predictive model for energy assessment in Mediterranean cities which could be further developed and used in the future to estimate overall energy efficiency on an urban scale.
