To fulfill the Chinese government's commitment that Chinese CO2 emissions would peak in 2030, as a result, improving the energy efficiency and reducing the emissions from the building sector is significantly important. A survey, in the form of a questionnaire, of energy consumption and thermal situation in different residential building types (detached house, multi-story building, high-rise building), was undertaken in three cities (Shanghai, Hangzhou, and Changzhou) in hot-summer and cold-winter regions, these three cities were selected to represent the most flourishing economic provinces. This region in China was selected for the evaluation of EETP (energy and thermal performance analysis), because of its special weather conditions, huge energy consumption (as both heating in winter and cooling in summer are necessary), and other regional characteristics. 183 households were sampled and experiments were separately done in typical examples of three different building types. Systematic evaluation on EETP for three different residential building types, were put forward to assess the energy efficiency and thermal performance of three different building types.展开更多
