Abstract

This paper presents a systematic literature review of urban wind energy harnessing in built environments. In line to foster decarbonisation in urban areas of tropical countries with decentralised renewable energy technologies, such as small wind turbines in buildings, this research has been carried out. To provide a comprehensive foundation on the topic, urban wind assessment research for various purposes was reviewed, where 48 studies for energy harnessing purposes were classified by country, region and methods. The methodologies are divided into six stages, of which environmental assessment and resilience analysis are scarce. Due to tropical countries being exposed to atmospheric events that historically cause human and material losses, potential future research could be made in line with resilience analysis through metrics that are key to the proper mass deployment of building-integrated wind turbine systems. Of 66 methods for wind prospecting, the most used are on-site measurement, computational fluid dynamics simulation and numerical climate prediction, which represent 49 %, 22 % and 17 %, respectively. Other decision-making techniques are presented with the aim of addressing new ways in strategic planning to promote the use of this technology.
