Abstract
Advanced urban heat mitigation technologies that involve the use of super-cool materials combined with properly designed green infrastructure lower urban ambient and land surface temperatures and reduce cooling consumption at the city scale. Here we present the results of a large-scale heat mitigation project in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Daytime radiative coolers, as well as cool materials combined with irrigated or non-irrigated greenery, were used to design eight holistic heat mitigation scenarios. We assess the climatic impact of the scenarios as well as the corresponding energy benefits of 3,323 urban buildings. An impressive decrease of the peak ambient temperature of up to 4.5 °C is calculated, the highest reported urban ambient temperature reduction, and the annual sum of the differences in the ambient temperature against a standard temperature base (cooling degree hours) in the city decreases by up to 26%. We find that innovative urban heat mitigation strategies contribute to the remarkable cooling energy conservation by up to 16%, and the combined implementation of heat mitigation and energy adaptation technologies decreases the cooling demand by up to 35%.
