Abstract |
As the biggest developing country, China is undergoing a dramatic increase of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission that comes with the rapid progress of urbanization. In order to pursue a su...stainable development and as an answer to the climate change, the Chinese government has devoted great effort by developing and revising building design standards, setting specific scenario plan for energy conservation, and strengthening legal measures to guaranteeing the execution of these policies. The aim of this paper is to justify the effects of the new policies on energy conservation and CO_2 emission reduction. This paper introduces a demonstration project as an example of building technology improvement and innovation which fulfills the requirements of the new design standards. The effect of energy saving in this project has been proved. However, further studies are necessary to understand the broader effects of new technologies and policies on larger scales of development of society and on growing cities.show more
