Beschreibung
This open access book focuses on Chinas building energy consumption and CO2 emissions, to discuss the status quo of Chinas building energy in four categories, their characteristics and technologies to improve energy efficiency and achieve zero-carbon emission. Carbon peaking and carbon neutrality targets have been one of the main motivations and goals for Chinas social and economic development. Building is one of the most important sectors to achieve energy saving and emission reduction. In particular, this book discusses the pathways to achieve the carbon neutrality target for Chinas rural buildings and rural energy system. This book analyzes the energy system transformation, technology perspectives to implement energy and carbon target in rural building sector. This book consists of large scale of survey data, monitoring data, and case studies. The discussion on technologies and policies is supported by a variety of evidences and continuous research for more than ten years. The information, data, and policy suggestions will be of interest to national and international audiences working in the fields of energy, climate change, engineering, and building science areas.
Autorenporträt
The Building Energy Research Center (BERC) of Tsinghua University was founded in 2005. The mission of BERC is to be devoted to the development of energy-efficient, low-carbon, and environmentally responsible buildings in China in accordance with national and international energy and environmental targets, including buildings research and innovation. The principal research activities within BERC include: assessment of the current buildings status in China and the provision of strategic; outlooks on buildings energy consumption and efficiency; occupant behavior and building simulation research; research and development (R&D) of innovative high-efficiency buildings technology and systems; energy efficiency application research on subsectors, including: space heating in Northern China; rural residential buildings; urban residential buildings; and public and commercial buildings.
