Cost-benefit analysis in Augustenborg for a system to collect rainwater from rooftops and other impervious surfaces and channel it through canals, ditches, ponds and wetlands before finally draining into a traditional closed sub-surface storm water system (known as a “Sustainable Urban Drainage System” (SUDS)). |
| Climate change uncertainty: building flexibility into water and flood risk infrastructure | Gersonius, B., Ashly, R., Pathirana, A. and Zevenbergen, C. | UK | Flooding |
Cost-effectiveness and Multi-criteria analyses for urban drainage system in Leeds |
| Copenhagen Climate Adaptation Plan | City of Copenhagen | Denmark | Flooding |
A Cost benefit analysis was conducted to assess the costs and benefits of Sustainable Urban Drainage System plus backwater valves plus surface adaptation to protect from flood (the Benefit-Cost-Ratio is 2.20). |
