Projections about climate change forecast an increase in the number and intensity of heat waves. In Spain daily maximum temperatures are projected to increase by 0.4 °C per decade in the 2021-2050 period and by 0.6 °C per decade in the 2051-2100 period in a maximum emissions scenario (RCP8.5). This increase in temperatures may lead to significant healthcare costs, on top of current mortality and morbidity increases, as a result of the population’s exposure to temperature extremes.The built urban environment and buildings proper play a key role in the population’s degree of exposure to these temperature extremes. The high density of cities and the absence of green spaces are modifiers of urban climate. In large cities this is manifested in a...
