To assess the sustainability of cities, it is important to know what the impacts of past growth have been. Urban climatology focuses on studying the changes that cities generate in meteorological parameters, with urban energy balances (UEB) being the ones that help explain these variations. The objective of this work is to show how the growth of the city of Tandil impacted the UEB in the period 2004-2017. With the WUDAPT methodology, maps of Local Climate Zones were prepared for 2004 and 2017, with which the growth pattern of the city were analyzed. With these classifications, meteorological data and population density data, the UEBs of the city were calculated for each year using the UMEP module in the QGIS 3.4 software. In this way, the effects of urban growth were analyzed and help to infer the effects on the local climatology of the city. The main results obtained showed a growth and expansion of the city towards the surrounding, with the replacement of green areas by built areas of high density and height. Regarding the effects on BEU, an increase in the heat island effect was observed, as a consequence of the increase in sensible heat. On the other hand, the reduction in latent heat reduces the regulatory effect of temperatures, which leads to higher energy requirements to heat and cool environments. El crecimiento de la población urbana hace de las ciudades espacios donde es muy importante actuar para mejorar su sostenibilidad. Para evaluar la sostenibilidad de las ciudades es importante conocer cuáles han sido los impactos del crecimiento pasado. La climatología urbana se centra en estudiar los cambios que generan las ciudades en los parámetros meteorológicos, siendo los balances energéticos urbanos (BEU) los que ayudan a explicar dichas variaciones. El objetivo de este trabajo es mostrar cómo el crecimiento de la ciudad de Tandil impacto en los BEU en el periodo 2004-2017. Con la metodología WUDAPT se elaboraron mapas de Zonas Climáticas Locales para 2004 y 2017, con las que se analizó el patrón de crecimiento de la ciudad. A partir de dichas clasificaciones, datos meteorológicos y datos de densidad poblacional, se calcularon los BEU de la ciudad para cada año utilizando el módulo UMEP en el software QGIS 3.4, para analizar los efectos del crecimiento urbano sobre dichos parámetros y poder inferir los efectos en la climatología local de la ciudad. Los principales resultados obtenidos mostraron un crecimiento y expansión de la ciudad hacia la periferia, con reemplazo de áreas verdes por zonas construidas de alta densidad y altura. En cuanto a los efectos sobre los BEU, se observó un aumento en el efecto de isla de calor, como consecuencia del aumento del calor sensible. Por otro lado, la reducción en el calor latente reduce el efecto regulatorio de las temperaturas, lo que lleva a mayores requerimientos energéticos para calentar y enfriar los ambientes.
