“Energy-Economic-Environment” Assessment for Energy-Efficiency Techniques of Green Buildings
The building sector generates significant energy and environmental footprints in a society, and green building techniques are being rapidly developed in China. However, the deployment of green building techniques is primarily prioritized by their initial economic costs, and their energy and environmental benefits are usually not considered. To facilitate robust deployments of green building techniques in China, in this study, we developed an energy-economic-environment assessment framework based on the e-QUEST building energy simulation tool and the data envelopment analysis approach, and a high-rise educational building in north China was selected for the case study, and five types of green building techniques were considered: the geothermal heat pump (GHP), solar photovoltaic system (SPS), rainwater collection and storage (RCS), external thermal insulation (ETI), and energy-efficient lighting (EEL). The results of the building under consideration show that ETI, SPS, and EEL have high priority for adoption, followed by GHP, and then RCS.
