Regional Feasibility Study On The Application Of Green Building Technology

With China’s rapid economic development,construction industry makes a great progress.However,a lot of problems was discovered during this process,energy problems may be one of the most attractive one.China is the first most greenhouse gas discharging country,and the construction industry in China could make a great contribution to saving energy as a energy-intensive industry.Related laws and regulations are established in China to solve the energy consumption problem of the construction industry.Energy was seriously wasted by the construction technology used these days.If energy-saving technology can be used as soon as possible,it will alleviate the situation of energy shortage and pull national economy development.Therefore,strategy of sustainable development is badly needed to follow the path of developed countries,and we also have to meet the goals of national energy conservation plan as well as reduce greenhouse gas emissions.Western countries have gained a lot during the research and implementation of green construction technology.Mature rating system and construction experience are good examples.In contrast,China started late on green construction technology research,and many advanced energy-saving technologies can not carry out due to the economy situation and technology factors.The rating system of green architecture has just established in less than10 years and still in its childhood.Nevertheless, China keep on searching for the green construction technology suited and Beijing,Tianjin,Shanghai are thepioneers of green construction technology exploring.Shanxi Province is a traditional heavily industrialized province who doesn’t pay enough attention to energy consumption problem of architecture, the energy is horribly wasted and construction industry is developing slowly in this province.Under the influence of city development and environmental problems,Shanxi Province started to transformate existing buildings into energy conservation ones,and required green construction technology to be used in new buildings.At first, this article reviews the process of green construction technology development at home and abroad,analyzes the problems may occur in implementation of green construction technology.With the construction industry situation of Shanxi Province,we can tell the importance of green architecture and the shortages in carrying the green construction technologies out.Secondly,China’s green construction technology is in its infancy,related laws and regulations for various regions have not been established so the implementation process may be helpless.Thus this article summarizes some widely used green construction technologies and classifies them by technical features and direction of application.Thirdly,climates and environment are considered in the implementation of green construction technology in Shanxi Province,building envelope,energy consumption equipments,water-cycling system,illuminating system,power generation system,thermal system can be used in energy conservation transformation.At last,the example of Shanxi Museum and Taiyuan Wanguo Residential District is reviewed to explore the possibilities and application directions of the implementation of various green construction technologies.
