Post Natural Urban Regeneration Design. Applying Renewable Energy Communities in Disused Military Areas

Transforming urban environments in relation to sustainability and sufficiency need to develop, through an interdisciplinary approach, methodologies and tools for evaluating and valorizing some abandoned spaces in the city: for example, dismissed areas linked to pre-existing military or industrial complexes that have significant dimensions and strategic positions. In their interactions with territorial structures, military areas often reveal their links with networks that have characterized their transformation over time, due to historical strategic and military assets that have defined its urban form. These are: infrastructural networks that have influenced the articulation, at different scales, of settlements; ecological networks that have increasingly been recognized as forming archipelagos rather than islands in the territory to be preserved and protected; energy networks for the production, storage, transport and distribution of different forms of energy, always strongly correlated to the morphologies with which cities and landscapes are transformed through different energetic transitions.
