Abstract

In order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions nationwide, the Korean government has announced a target of reducing greenhouse gases by 37% relative to the business-as-usual (BAU) level by 2030. Because the building sector is important for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, various policies are being strengthened to reduce building energy consumption. In order for these policies to have a substantial effect, it is necessary to ensure technological and economic feasibility in the marketplace and to provide energy information that can be easily understood and evaluated by building owners and engineers. Providing information that accounts for the status of energy consumption by end-use (heating, cooling, domestic hot water, lighting, etc.) is a very important part of establishing a concrete action plan for energy conservation. In response, a national research project is being conducted regarding the installation of the continuous measurement systems of energy consumption by end-use in sample buildings and the creation of a reference energy use intensity (EUI) database and benchmarking system for comparative analysis. As a basis for this national project, this study defined energy consumption by end-use for office buildings. The study also made principles to measure such consumption and convert the measured data into EUI. Eighty five office buildings were selected as samples. The installation of measurement systems for the sample buildings is scheduled to be completed in phases over 4 years starting in 2015, and measurement systems have thus far been installed in 19 office buildings. A reference EUI database for office buildings and a benchmarking tool based on this database will be made available after 2020, and similar systems for apartment buildings are now being established.
