Integration of green and gray infrastructures for sponge city: Water and energy nexus

In the past few decades, urban flooding and water shortages caused by the rapid expansion of cities and the destruction of construction ecology have been harshly lost. The current ecological rainwater management system is based on the traditional gray infrastructure and cannot effectively solve the...

description	In the past few decades, urban flooding and water shortages caused by the rapid expansion of cities and the destruction of construction ecology have been harshly lost. The current ecological rainwater management system is based on the traditional gray infrastructure and cannot effectively solve the water problems of different scales. Sponge city, as an advanced rainwater management technology, plays a vital role in urban transformation and new construction. While building a sponge city, the gray infrastructure will be integrated to form a gray-green infrastructure integration, and the relationship between water and energy in the sponge city will be coordinated. This paper proposes the problems encountered in the transformation of the gray infrastructure of the sponge city to the green infrastructure and the measures to be taken. The integrated indicator system is used to comprehensively evaluate the integration of the gray-green facilities.
