Multi-criteria analyses of street scale Blue/Green Infrastructure
Stormwater blue/green infrastructure can be a core component in delivering sustainable cities. Besides evaluating its technical/environmental potential, a wider perspective is needed to evaluate blue/green infrastructure in a holistic way, as illustrated in the figure below.
Within this DRIZZLE theme, we will undertake an integrated sustainability assessment of selected blue/green infrastructure facilities in a three-step approach including (i) collaborative identification of and approaches to benchmarking sustainability criteria, (ii) the evaluation of the environmental impact of blue/green infrastructure facilities using a LCA and (iii) based on that, doing an integrated sustainability assessment of selected blue/green infrastructure facilities using the non-compensatory MCA method ELECTRE III. The LCA will be an input to this MCA. The results will give guidance for integrated decision making regarding the sustainability of different types of stormwater blue/green infrastructure.
