This paper explores the role of green roofs in mitigating the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect and enhancing building energy efficiency by analyzing their interaction with climatic and environmental parameters. The research identifies and evaluates key parameters and variables that influence green roof performance, providing a structured framework to guide design decisions. The methodology involves a critical review of existing guidelines, a detailed classification of parameters and variables, and the development of a conceptual model to examine their interrelationships. However, the study also identifies gaps in current approaches and emphasizes the need for tools to optimize green roof solutions for diverse climatic contexts. While this research lays the groundwork for an interactive parametric approach, future work is required to develop practical applications or tools, such as digital platforms or models, to support designers and policymakers. This study offers valuable insights into the design of green roofs, emphasizing their potential as a sustainable urban planning strategy and their contribution to environmental resilience.
