| Summary | The quantity of carbon dioxide emissions caused by the consumption of energy in the Business and Related Fields (office buildings, commercial buildings) has been increasing remarkably (in 2008, to 43.0% of the 1990 level). This research has improved the precision of energy conservation evaluation indices for non-residential buildings (energy consumption prediction technology developed to verify the characteristics of the operation of equipment and building envelope) and provided the technological foundations to develop the practical design guidelines. |
