Abstract

Carbon emissions from buildings have inherently dynamic characteristics since buildings evolve over time. Most previous studies, however, implemented static building carbon regimes, ignoring the temporal variation of many factors that govern carbon emissions of buildings. This research explores the influences of four dynamic factors acting on building carbon emissions: dynamic climate change data, dynamic electricity carbon emission factors, dynamic variations in building insulation levels, and dynamic degradation of mechanical components. Results indicate that the effects of these dynamic factors are very complex, depending on energy types, maintenance approach, refurbishment rate, and socioeconomic scenarios. Much more research is...

Carbon emissions from buildings have inherently dynamic characteristics since buildings evolve over time. Most previous studies, however, implemented static building carbon regimes, ignoring the temporal variation of many factors that govern carbon emissions of buildings. This research explores the influences of four dynamic factors acting on building carbon emissions: dynamic climate change data, dynamic electricity carbon emission factors, dynamic variations in building insulation levels, and dynamic degradation of mechanical components. Results indicate that the effects of these dynamic factors are very complex, depending on energy types, maintenance approach, refurbishment rate, and socioeconomic scenarios. Much more research is required to understand the dynamic nature of building carbon emissions and make more accurate long-term predictions using simulation.
