Climatic compatible future cities locating approach to less non-renewable energy consumption

More than half of the world’s population lives in cities. cities and climate have tremendous interactions. slight changes in one of the climatic factors disrupt the balance of civilizations. hence, neglecting these factors makes cities face hazards. due to explosive population growth and urbanization, locating climatic compatible future cities is a worldwide concern. the main goal of the present study is to identify effective climate factors on future cities locating approach to less non-renewable energy consumption and compatible with climate. for this purpose, using a questionnaire from experts, providing pairwise comparison in expert choice software, and structural analyzing with micmac software, data were divided into four factors and 23 subfactors. results show that the temperature and solar radiation factors have the highest effects. the lowest score is dedicated to the wind factor. micmac structural analysis shows that altitude, latitude, radiation direction, and distance from the sea factors are key and sensitive (driver) factors; radiation duration, time-dependent fluctuations, sky cover and sunshine hours, and precipitation factors are high-risk (linkage) factors; atmospheric specifications, relative humidity fluctuations, heat gain, glacial days, horizontal pressure gradient factors are dependent factors, and solar radiation fluctuations factor is an independent (autonomous) factor.
