Abstract

Globally, Due to its damaging effects on energy, consumption, health, wellbeing, and air pollution, the urban warming phenomenon is gaining worldwide awareness from scientists to planners and legislators. In order to achieve the equation and reach an energy-saving urbanization, we must reconcile with the environment by providing a sustainable urban design that works to rationalize energy and reduce the depletion of resources and reach a sustainable urban environment by providing thermal comfort requirements. In order to attain three key characteristics that are related to one another—thermal comfort, reduced energy consumption, and reduced CO2 emissions—the study will examine a variety of alternatives (Residential group D, G, A, N&H). They will be examined for the residential groups as the research case study in New Cairo -Egypt through adopting a methodical investigation with the aid of the Envi-Met and Energy Plus (Design Builder) simulation tool. Finally, the research results achieved through provide residential complexes that include urban spaces in clusters that work together to reduce total energy consumption while simultaneously meeting external thermal comfort needs in the urban environment, both in terms of the orientation and composition of the residential cluster.
