This study introduces an innovative methodology for designing sustainable urban energy districts using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The scope is to identify specific parts of the urban fabric, suitable for becoming energy districts that can meet the energy needs of dwellings and activities and produce an energy surplus for the city. The method uses building archetypes to characterize the districts and perform simulations through an algorithm based on correction coefficients considering variables such as total building height, exposure, year of construction, and building typology. By leveraging GIS, this approach supports the creation of urban energy maps, which help identify and address potential energy-related issues in various urban contexts. Additionally, the research explores different scenarios for developing energy communities within the district, aiming to optimize energy use and distribution. A case study in Naples, Southern Italy, demonstrates that installing photovoltaic panels on the roofs of buildings can allow a complete electrical supply to the building stock. The final goal is to provide a robust tool that enhances confidence in urban energy planning decisions, contributing to more sustainable and efficient energy management at the district level. This approach may support the urban and territorial governance towards sustainable solutions by developing strategies for the creation of energy communities and optimizing the potential of specific sites.
