Resum

Summer Energy Poverty is becoming a more concerning issue in southern European countries. Besides the growing interest in monitoring heatwaves and implementing prevention plans for vulnerable population, different municipalities have driven specific analysis of the Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon and promoted projects for its mitigation. Scientific literature has grown in the last decade on topics such as urban microclimate, passive urban cooling or assessing dwellers adaptability to high temperatures. However, there is still a gap between scientific knowledge and local policies when dealing with overheating, especially targeting people under summer energy poverty conditions and promoting mitigation measures. This work aims to bridge this scientific and policy knowledge gap by gathering existing methodologies and approaches to summer energy poverty in the context of Southern Europe.
