Lesson11  Building Energy-saving Energy-saving of building is a great problem of countrys economic and peoples livelihood, and is an important part of energy-saving. It have been underway for many years in foreign countries, and could even be said is known widely. But it is still a new term for Chinese people, let alone ordinary people, even if the specialists who engage in the building construction, can not talk it clearly. In order to carry on long-term building energy saving effectively, we must let the people know it, and let the entire society pay attention to it, so that our cause of building energy saving would have hoped that make substantial progress. To understand building energy-saving, we must first understand why we pursue building energy-saving. At present, Chinese urbanization process is experiencing an acceleration period , the rapid industrial growth, the acceleration of urbanization, and the upgrading of the consumption structure, making our energy and economic resources demand more urgent. In the building sector, the ratio of building energy consumption to Chinas total energy consumption of the commodity had been promoted from 10% in 1978 to the current 30%, unit building area energy consumption is 2-3 times as many as developed countries, and is more than all developed countries. China has become the worlds second largest energy consumption country. Clearly, building energy saving has been so grasping. The so-called Building energy saving, initially refers to reduce the loss of energy in buildings, but now commonly known as Improving energy efficiency in the building, that is, people can rationally use energy and constantly improve energy use efficiency, under the premise of improve the comfort of buildings. It is to define the scope of building energy use, including air-conditioning, heating, lighting, household appliances, cooking, and other aspects of energy consumption.
