Developing a policy analysis tool for low-carbon residential heating and cooling technology deployment in Japan

我们在上一财政年度根据提案继续进行了该项目。我们进一步对日本供暖和制冷技术的数据库进行了研究，将部署率、成本、排放、燃料消耗和效率作为模型的主要输入。同时，住宅的热造型达到了更加精确的水平。实现各种加热和冷却技术的无形成本是本项目的主要任务之一。目前，该模型在日本以供暖为主的地区运行良好。进一步的工作是必要的，以增加其与冷却主导区域的兼容性。

We continued the project during the last fiscal year based on the proposal. We further worked on the databases for Japan's heating and cooling technologies regarding deployment rate, costs, emission, fuel consumption, and efficiencies as the primary input to the model. At the same time, the thermal modeling of the residential houses reached a more accurate level. Achieving the intangible costs of various heating and cooling technologies is one of the main tasks in this project. Currently, the model works very well in the heating-dominant area of Japan. Further work is necessary to increase its compatibility with the cooling-dominant regions.
