| Abstract |
By increasing the share of buildings in final energy consumption and CO_2 emission, increasing the energy efficiency in the buildings is getting more important. Zero emission buildings (ZEBs) are ener...gy efficient and self-sufficient in producing energy, which can be helpful of achieving the energy security and also controlling global warming issues in different countries. Japanese target for CO_2 emission reduction is 25% in 2030, in comparison with 2013 level. In this target, the emission reduction from the residential and commercial buildings are 39% and 40%, respectively. This paper aims for bringing together the definitions of ZEBs and also the common and possible methods to achieve ZEB, with focus on Japan. The current status of ZEB and successful examples are introduced and supportive policies are mentioned. Finally, the challenges for further deployment of ZEB concept in Japan are discussed.show more
