Abstract Cities play a key role in the mitigation of carbon emission, however there is a need for comprehensive tools able to support sustainable urban planning. The Smart City Energy platform powered by the web-based framework iGUESS® is a geospatial platform for decision support giving access to a series of calculation modules and providing visualization of energy related maps for cities. This chapter presents an exemplary application of iGUESS ® for the combined assessment of housing electricity consumption and photovoltaic (PV) generation potential at the urban scale. The study provided relevant results for a test case study in Rotterdam city (Netherlands) for the integration of PV and assessment of the energy potential. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015.
