This study aims to investigate the possibility of expanding the support program for green remodeling of fire stations and analyze the standard design guidelines. Green remodeling is essential for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting green buildings, but currently, it is only conducted for buildings with limited purposes. In this study, we conduct green remodeling for fire stations with severe aging to demonstrate energy performance improvement and investigate the potential for expanding the support program to other types of aging buildings. The research methodology includes analysis of previous studies, preliminary investigation and alternative setting, energy analysis, calculation of construction costs, evaluation of the possibility of introducing support programs, and examine of the fire station standard design guidelines. The research results confirm that green remodeling can reduce energy consumption in fire stations and present the possibility of including fire stations as targets in the support program for green remodeling of public buildings.
