Building Fit-out and its Carbon Behaviour China’s ambitious target of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060 has significant implications for the building sector, which is responsible for nearly half of all global carbon emissions. Specifically, building operations account for 28% of these emissions while new construction contributes to 21%. In China, construction generates 21.6% of emissions, with 28% coming from new
Energy reduction is a critical issue the world needs to englobe today as we strive to reduce our carbon footprint and create a sustainable future. Commissioning, often written as Cx, is one of the tools that help building owners reduce their energy consumption. In this article, we explore the importance of commissioning to optimize building operations. What is commissioning? Commissioning
In early 2023, Galeries Lafayette will open a store in Shenzhen’s city Futian district, as part of its development in China. Galeries Lafayette wanted to estimate the detailed energy consumption of this mall, before its construction. An Energy estimation study could help Galeries Lafayette gain a clear understanding of the behavior of the store and then identify future relevant optimization
