Building Simulation, 2007, Beijing, China
Energy consumption by residential sector of 20 Japanese cities was modeled at the city-scale. In the model, households were classified into 228 categories based on the family and building type. We evaluated the effectiveness of energy conservation measures, such as improving energy efficiency of home appliances, improving heat insulation of buildings, changing preset temperature, and all family members watching TV together. In addition, we also discussed differences in energy saving effects between cities.
