China has a huge number of buildings; therefore transforming them for energy saving and carbon reduction isloaded withchallenges. Over the years, China has been promoting energy saving and carbon emission reduction in existing buildings, and has completed the renovation area of more than 2.4 billion...
Through this endeavor we have learned new processes Create a Construction Activity Carbon Reduction Plan (CACRP) and created new methods to make the data collection process smoother. Identify water reclamation opportunities during construction Using this carbon emissions from construction data, we can ...
The National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development recently issued a work plan designed to promote energy conservation and carbon emissions reduction in the construction sector. The plan envisages that by 2025 green building standards will be wholly i...

In their early talks, the researchers and industry partners quickly identified science-based decision support in the early stages of project planning as a key strategy for emissions reduction. They plan to analyze data from previously constructed projects and publicly available databases to generate pred...
The global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in 2018 were 25.6 peta-grams, of which China, the United States, and Western Europe accounted for 29.6%, 16.4%, and 11.8%, respectively7. Research shows that the reduction of carbon emission intensity and the optimization of industrial structure can in...
The government has signalled its intention to boost the green construction industry with the publication of a draft Carbon Plan. Two weeks before the 2011 Budget, the government restated its support for the renewables industry, which will be worth billions of pounds to construction over the coming...
However, a knowledge gap remains in terms of quantifying the carbon emission reduction performance when this program was implemented in the pilot cities. This study develops a methodology to account for the carbon emission reductions from the solid waste management processes of source control, mid-...
theoretical framework, but also provides a reliable method to predict the peak of CECI and the effectiveness of carbon reduction measures for similar economies around the world. It can help policymakers formulate more feasible provincial green development plans and contribute to global low-carbon ...
