Abstract

China consumes more and more energy as its economy expands rapidly. Industry, transportation, commercial and residential buildings are the top three energy-consuming sectors. Specifically, China's commercial and residential buildings contribute about a third to its total energy consumption. Therefore, building energy efficiency (BEE) has been attracting increasingly more attention from the Chinese government and Chinese people. This paper presents an overview of the evolution and current situation of BEE in China, summarizes its major problems, and offers suggestions to boost its development.
