Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India is experiencing an unprecedented construction boom. The country doubled its floorspace between 2001 and 2005 and is expected to add 35 billion m2 of new buildings by 2050. Buildings account for 35% of total final energy consumption in India today, and building energy use is growing at 8% annually. China will account for about half of the new construction globally in the coming decade. Its floorspace doubled from 1996 to 2011, and Chinese rural buildings alone have as much floorspace as all of U.S. residential buildings. Building energy consumption has also grown, increasing by over 40% since 1990. This book discusses the compliance evaluation of energy conservation building code for building energy efficiency in India; and assesses the impact of China's policies on building energy efficiency and on the market for energy efficiency in the future.

Book excerpt: Buildings in the People's Republic of China (PRC) consume 21% of the total energy produced in the country. This study analyzes and proposes feasible energy-saving and emission-reducing solutions for domestic railway stations in the PRC. The use of intelligent building controls support reduction of energy consumption, minimization or elimination of energy wastes, and cost savings. Strong institutional mechanisms and railway building management methods and policies also promote technological innovation. Moreover, these are necessary to balance the interests of multiple parties to be able to achieve energy efficiency in railway station buildings in the PRC.

Book excerpt: The report begins with an introduction of key concepts and an overview of the administrative structures that play a role in China's building energy use, along with a brief history of building energy efficiency policies in China. The body of the report is structured as a review of five aspects of China's building energy efficiency: building energy performance, building energy efficiency policies for new buildings, building energy efficiency policies for existing buildings, application of renewable energy to buildings, and rural building energy use. The report also provides an assessment of the future prospects and directions for building energy efficiency policy development in China.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Double carbon targets have been one of the most motivations and targets for China’s social and economic development. Building is one of the most important sectors to achieve energy savings and emission reductions. This book focuses on China’s building energy usage and CO2 emissions, discusses the status quo of China’s building energy of four categories, their characteristics and technologies to improve energy efficiency and achieve zero-carbon emissions. Specifically, this book in 2021 discussed the pathways to achieve carbon neutrality targets for China’s building sector. This book also analyzed the energy mix, energy intensity, and technology perspectives to implement energy and carbon targets in urban residential building areas. This book consists of large-scale survey data, monitoring data and case studies. The discussion on technologies and policies is supported by a variety of evidence and continuous research for more than ten years. The information, data and policy suggestions will interest readers all around the world who work in energy, climate change, engineering and building science areas.

Book excerpt: Asia has an enormous, largely untapped, opportunity to save money and cut growth in greenhouse gas emissions by taking measures to increase energy efficiency in buildings. Energy efficiency is one of the quickest, cheapest, cleanest ways to address energy and environmental challenges. In China, gaining a megawatt of electricity by building more generating capacity costs four to six times as much as saving a megawatt through greater efficiency--and that ignores the environmental costs of using fossil fuels. Yet China currently is building the equivalent of two 500-megawatt power plants every week. More than half of the world's new construction is taking place in China and India alone. Buildings account for around 30 percent of the world's total energy consumption and a similar percentage of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. The way buildings are designed and constructed today not only will have an impact on their operating costs, but will affect the world's energy consumption patterns and environmental conditions for many years to come.

The double-carbon target has been one of the main motivations and goals for China's social and economic development. The building sector is one of the most important sectors to achieve energy saving and emission reduction. This publication thoroughly examines China's building energy use and carbon emissions with a focus on four categories, including their characteristics and the technologies needed to achieve zero carbon emissions. This year, the key issue is developing carbon-neutrality pathways for China's urban heating system. This report comprehensively discusses the current status and future forecast of heat demand in buildings and non-process industries, introduces the challenges facing the urban energy supply system in achieving carbon neutrality, and elucidates the low-carbon heating model based mainly on low-grade and low-carbon waste heat. Extensive survey and monitoring data and case studies are presented throughout the book. The discussion of technologies and policies has been the subject of extensive research and evidence for over a decade. The information, data, and policy recommendations are of relevance to a national and global audience working in the fields of energy, climate change, engineering, and building science.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "China has replaced the U.S. as the world’s largest consumer of energy. The Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development (MOHURD)’s latest data shows that China’s building sector accounts for around one-third of its final energy consumption (MOHURD, 2016). Particularly in northern China, the cold climate exerts pressure on its central heating system, which is responsible for a total energy consumption of about four hundred million tons of standard coal equivalent (TCE) (National Development and Reform Commission, 2017). Due to the growing population, economic development, and increasing standards of living, China expects that building energy use will escalate in the coming years. As a result of rapid urbanization, China’s building stock nearly tripled from 1995 to 2005, and it is estimated to nearly triple again by 2030 (Global Buildings Performance Network, 2013). There are a large number of existing buildings that perform poorly in terms of energy, wasting resources and polluting the environment. In order to overcome big challenges in energy conservation and the reduction in carbon dioxide emissions, promoting the energy efficiency of existing buildings should be of great use. This thesis aims to provide solutions for improving the energy efficiency of existing residential buildings in northern China. Using data from a typical residential building in Beijing, the biggest city in northern China, an energy model is built and analyzed. Models with different energy-saving strategies are then presented to investigate practical and potential solutions with regards to energy efficiency and cost."--Abstract.
