The external resource dependency of urban areas results in the externalization of environmental and socioeconomic impacts. Implementing food, energy and water production systems on urban rooftops (roof mosaics) can potentially help cities become more self-sufficient but depends on the city’s urban morphology<\/a>. We studied the supply potential and impacts of four roof mosaic scenarios for different urban forms in Cerdanyola, a 58 thousand-inhabitant town in the\u00a0metropolitan area<\/a>\u00a0of Barcelona. We combined spatial analysis of potential rooftops, metabolism analysis, and social and\u00a0environmental impacts<\/a>. The municipality has an average rooftop\/household potential of 31 m2<\/sup>\u00a0on which to implement any of the mosaic scenarios, with the highest potential in the single-family housing typology. The highest level of vegetable self-sufficiency was found in housing estates (32%), and the lowest in originary fabrics (28%). Regarding electricity and water self-sufficiency, the highest self-sufficiency level was found in the single-family housing typology (51% and 14%, respectively) and the lowest in housing estates (26% and 8%, respectively). Regarding impacts, the implementation of the electricity and\u00a0rainwater<\/a>\u00a0harvesting systems depicts the most positive indicators in single-family housing areas. However, for housing estates and originary fabrics typologies, the best performance is shown to be in the implementation of rooftop farming systems.<\/p>\n

La depend\u00e8ncia dels recursos externs de les zones urbanes provoca l’externalitzaci\u00f3 dels impactes ambientals i socioecon\u00f2mics. La implementaci\u00f3 de sistemes de producci\u00f3 d’aliments, energia i aigua als terrats urbans pot ajudar potencialment a les ciutats a ser m\u00e9s autosuficients, per\u00f2 dep\u00e8n de la morfologia urbana de cada ciutat. Hem estudiat el potencial de subministrament i els impactes de quatre escenaris de mosaics de cobertes per a diferents formes urbanes a Cerdanyola, una ciutat de 58 mil habitants de l’\u00e0rea metropolitana de Barcelona. Hem combinat l’an\u00e0lisi espacial de possibles teulades, l’an\u00e0lisi metab\u00f2lic i els impactes socials i ambientals. El municipi t\u00e9 un potencial mitj\u00e0 terrat\/habitatge de 31 m2, sobre els quals s’hi podria implantar qualsevol dels escenaris de mosaic, amb el potencial m\u00e9s alt en la tipologia d’habitatge unifamiliar. El nivell m\u00e9s alt d’autosufici\u00e8ncia vegetal es va trobar a les urbanitzacions (32%), i el m\u00e9s baix en els teixits originals (28%). Pel que fa a l’autosufici\u00e8ncia el\u00e8ctrica i h\u00eddrica, el nivell d’autosufici\u00e8ncia m\u00e9s alt es va trobar a la tipologia d’habitatge unifamiliar (51% i 14%, respectivament) i el m\u00e9s baix a les urbanitzacions (26% i 8%, respectivament). Pel que fa als impactes, la implantaci\u00f3 dels sistemes de captaci\u00f3 d’electricitat i aigua de pluja presenta els indicadors m\u00e9s positius a les zones d’habitatge unifamiliar. No obstant aix\u00f2, per a les urbanitzacions i les tipologies de teixits originals, el millor rendiment es mostra en la implantaci\u00f3 de sistemes de cultiu en coberta.<\/p>\n
