This paper puts the Twelfth Five-year (2011-2015) Plan as baseline scenario, and sets up optimism scenario and pessimistic scenario. Under the above scenarios, the paper explores the potential of energy conservation and emission reduction of new green buildings and non-green buildings in Chongqing. The results show great potential for energy conservation of new buildings in Chongqing. In optimism scenario, with reasonable policy and market intensify, CO2 reduced by energy saving will be equal to that produced by 47% new population in urbanization in Chongqing. New green residential building is the key to promote building energy conservation. As the improvement of energy efficiency standards, new non-green residential buildings should be an important issue in long term.

Abstract


This paper puts the Twelfth Five-year (2011-2015) Plan as baseline scenario, and sets up optimism scenario and pessimistic scenario. Under the above scenarios, the paper explores the potential of energy conservation and emission reduction of new green buildings and non-green buildings in Chongqing. The results show great potential for energy conservation of new buildings in Chongqing. In optimism scenario, with reasonable policy and market intensify, CO2 reduced by energy saving will be equal to that produced by 47% new population in urbanization in Chongqing. New green residential building is the key to promote building energy conservation. As the improvement of energy efficiency standards, new non-green residential buildings should be an important issue in long term.
