This paper published in the Journal of Cleaner Production presents an approach for the evaluation of energy performance of urban precincts and includes the interactions among precinct objects, natural environment and occupant behaviours. The research has provided a model, supported by a case study of a typical outer Australian suburb, for exploring the life cycle energy consumption of urban precincts.
