减少建筑物的能源需求被广泛认为是温室气体减排战略的关键组成部分。随着政府转向大规模的行业干预,需要更强大的研究和证据基础来支持能源需求政策的制定、实施和持续评估。向低碳建筑环境的转变将需要建筑物的能源性能发生重大变化,同时更有效地提供能源服务,并对所使用的能源进行积极的脱碳。然而,支持建筑物能源性能这一重要转变所需的建筑物存量的必要数据不一定可用,或者无法获得或不完整。随着通过高频传感器收集的建筑物能源使用信息越来越多,建筑物形式分析变得越来越复杂,应用于建筑物存量"人口"的无数不同子行业的分析方法需要与建筑物存量的异质性相称。本文描述并说明了IEA EBC附件70的基础:建筑能源流行病学,它借鉴了健康科学,将“能源流行病学”作为实证研究的整体系统方法,为建筑物理学家,工程师,社会科学家和经济学家提供了一个方法论框架,以从事跨学科研究。它提出的情况下,流行病学的方法来调查能源需求的发展和应用,可以促进政策指导和评价的相互关联的因素的理解,并提供影响能源需求的机制的见解。IEA EBC附件70的目的是在国际合作中确定用户对建筑物能源需求的需求,并建立最佳实践方法和数据收集,分析和建模的统一格式。为了说明这一过程,我们提出了一个例子,从英国的能源流行病学方法的应用,以建筑物的能源性能在住宅部门。案例研究调查了英国政府提出的政策和技术措施的潜在有效性。广泛、深入和紧急减少建筑业能源需求的政策实施需要更好地了解人、能源使用、建筑物和环境之间的潜在关系。
Energy demand reduction from buildings is widely recognised as a key component of greenhouse gas abatement strategies. As governments shift towards large-scale sectoral interventions, a far more robust research and evidence base is needed to support the development, implementation, and on-going evaluation of energy demand policy.The shift to a low carbon built environment will require both a step change in the energy performance of buildings alongside more efficient provision of energy services, and an aggressive decarbonisation of the energy used. Yet the prerequisite data of building stocks needed to support this essential shift in energy performance of buildings are not necessarily available or are inaccessible or incomplete. As more information on building energy use is collected through high frequency sensors and building form analytics become more sophisticated, the analysis methods applied to the myriad and diverse sub-sectors of the building stock ‘population’ need to be commensurate with the heterogeneity of the building stock.This paper describes and illustrates the basis of the IEA EBC Annex 70: Building Energy Epidemiology, which draws on the health sciences to posit ‘energy epidemiology’ as a whole-system approach for empirical research that provides a methodological framework for building physicists, engineers, social scientists, and economists to engage in cross-disciplinary studies. It makes the case that the development and application of an epidemiological approach to investigating energy demand can advance understanding of the inter-related factors for policy guidance and evaluation and provide insights on the mechanisms that influence energy demand. The aim of the IEA EBC Annex 70 is to work in an international collaboration to identify user needs around energy demand in buildings and to establish best practice methods and harmonized formats for data collection, analysis and modelling.To illustrate this process, we present an example from the UK on the application of energy epidemiological methods to building energy performance in the residential sector. The case study investigates the potential effectiveness of the policy and technical measures proposed by the UK Government.Policy implementation for broad, deep, and urgent reductions in energy demand from the building sector requires a far better understanding of the underlying relationships between people, energy use, buildings and the environment.
