With the increase in population and the expansion of urbanization and due to the limitations of non-renewable energy sources and environmental damage caused by inefficient use of energy, it has created many problems for cities. So that in addition to environmental experts and environmental designers and architects, managers and planners and even urban designers have been made to think about how to intervene in the harmful effects of excessive use of fuel and the destructive effects of the environment. Meanwhile, urban design with the aim of efficient design and control of the physical form of the city and its public areas has a very influential role in energy efficiency and consumption. So far, architects have done many valuable actions in the building and housing sector, but less attention has been paid to the scale beyond the building scale. On the other hand, energy efficiency requires the existence of citizens and their use of spaces, so a neighborhood can be called energy efficient that includes social stability, vitality, dynamism, and inclusiveness. The answer to the question "What are the principles and standards of designing energy-efficient urban areas?" It is one of the most important goals of this thesis. The current thesis seeks to achieve its goal in both theoretical and practical fields, the design of an energy-efficient neighborhood, and in the theoretical field, by examining the different views of experts regarding neighborhood design and energy efficiency, it provides valuable principles and criteria for design policies. And in the practical area, a neighborhood with the highest energy efficiency and a lively, dynamic and inclusive neighborhood should be designed. According to the above, this thesis is divided into 5 chapters: The first chapter describes the generalities of the research, which includes the statement of the problem, goals and questions, the importance and necessity of the subject, and then the background of the subject. After that, the research method has been explained, which is in two parts, the method of collecting information and data and data analysis techniques, and finally, the limitations of the subject and its structure have been stated. The second chapter describes the theoretical foundations in three parts of terminology, the history of the subject, and the opinion of experts, and finally, describes the qualities of energy-efficient urban design and energy efficiency eva‎luation methods and models. The third chapter deals with experiences similar to the topic of the thesis in terms of geographical conditions and climate in two parts of experiences outside Iran and inside Iran. The fourth chapter is also devoted to the introduction, recognition and analysis of the scope of the study in two sections: the studies of the existing documents and the studies of the existing situation. In the last chapter, there are findings, design ideas and choosing the best option, and finally, answering questions and achieving goals. Finally, it can be seen that by knowing the representatives of the place and the perspective of the neighborhood as a location and factors affecting energy consumption, energy efficiency can be achieved in the neighborhood and cities. In order to create an energy-efficient, lively and dynamic neighborhood, firstly, in the theoretical basics section, the dimensions and qualities of the place and then the effective factors in energy consumption have been examined. After reaching the goals of the thesis and the operational goals by answering its three basic questions, which include the issue of "How can the design of urban neighborhoods lead to energy efficiency in cities?" By filling the empty space between building architecture and urban planning through urban design, the missing link of energy consumption of buildings and single buildings and the city has been found, and it is possible to increase energy efficiency in cities by designing urban neighborhoods. And to answer the question "What are the principles and criteria for designing energy-efficient neighborhoods?" According to the theoretical foundations, it has been achieved and finally the answer to the question "How can we make the urban areas sustainable by reducing energy consumption?" by using as much renewable energy as possible, such as the sun, wind, water, and by recycling waste and reusing gray water., the amount of pressure on the environment and natural resources is reduced, and in addition, it reduces environmental pollution. By planting crops and creating small workshops and encouraging policies regarding the localization of the local economy, it creates a self-sufficient neighborhood, and then it increases the population and the level of social welfare. On the other hand, by injecting uses such as education, healthcare and access to services, they are among the important factors influencing the social dimension of sustainability.
