Abstract: Rapid urbanization presents environmental challenges, including increased energy consumption, pollution, and loss of biodiversity. This article explores the synergies between green facades and renewable energy technologies in urban environments. Green facades, comprising living walls and green roofs, provide ecosystem services such as improved air quality, enhanced biodiversity, and urban heat island mitigation. Renewable energy technologies contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting energy independence. Integrating these technologies generates synergistic benefits, such as improved energy performance and enhanced sustainability. The article presents case studies, discusses technical, economic, and regulatory challenges, and outlines recommendations to advance the integration of green facades and renewable energy technologies for more sustainable urban environments

Keywords: Green facades, Renewable energy, Urban sustainability, Solar panels, Wind turbines
