Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) and energy-efficient buildings have gained significant attention in recent years as promising approaches for a sustainable urban future. However, research efforts that aim to assess both approaches and integrate them remain very scarce in the literature, leaving potential relationships or synergies between the two approaches underexplored. The goal of this research is to evaluate the impact of two sustainable urban planning principles of TODs, namely compactness sand densification, on the energy performance of the urban built environment. Using Urban Building Energy Modeling (UBEM), an analysis of the Mockingbird Station in Dallas, TX, shows that compactness and densification lead to unexpected increases in the energy intensity of the built environment.

近年来，作为面向可持续城市未来的有前途的方法，公交导向开发（TOD）和节能建筑受到了广泛关注。但是，旨在评估这两种方法并整合它们的研究工作在文献中仍然非常匮乏，这两种方法之间的潜在关系或协同作用尚未得到充分挖掘。这项研究的目的是评估TOD的两个可持续城市规划原则，即致密砂致密化，对城市建筑环境的能效的影响。使用城市建筑能源模型（UBEM），对德克萨斯州达拉斯的模仿鸟站的分析表明，紧凑和致密化会导致建筑环境的能源强度意外增加。
