Abstract
In this chapter, the author follows through with Digital Twin Technology (DTT) as a transformational tool in sustainable urban development. With cities experiencing amplified pressure from rapid urbanization and climate change, DTT entails a dynamic, information-driven method to oversee, simulate, and optimize urban systems on the fly. The chapter shows that DTT can be used to enable energy efficiency, reduction of carbon footprint, climate resilience, and inclusive governance by conducting literature reading, case studies (e.g., Singapore, Helsinki, Shanghai), and a strategic integration framework. It also analyzes the obstacles, technical, organizational, and ethical in a critical manner and describes the future possibilities of AI deployment, collaboration with the stakeholders, and standardization of frameworks. The chapter ends with the plan of action on how to implement DTT in sustainable urban governance, which could be of help to planners, policymakers, and research practitioners whose aim is to design smarter, more resilient, and more equitable urban futures.
