The Digital Twin Cities Centre (DTCC) is set to embark on its next phase, with a five-year extension approved by Vinnova. Beginning in 2025, DTCC 2 will focus on driving sustainable urban development, bridging research and industry, and delivering practical tools to revolutionize city planning and construction in Sweden.
Urban densification influences wind, temperature, noise, daylight and air quality in both city scales and microscales like streets, neighbourhoods, parks. While software for wind simulation is available and best-practise guidelines have been formulated throughout the years, this is not the case for the simulation of heat. As climate change poses significant challenges on the built environment e.g. in form of heat waves and heavy storms, a resilient and liveable city can only be developed when the abovementioned environmental aspects are considered throughout the planning process.
The Digital Twin Cities Centre has received approval to continue its research for another five years. The centre has successfully completed numerous projects and is now planning for the future.
