This session presents new Japanese HVAC technologies employed for ZEBs (Zero-Energy Buildings). The IPCC Fourth Assessment Report suggests that the construction industry has the largest potential for emission reduction; but in reality, emissions from building sector including housing have been increasing. Background in Asia is explained at the beginning of the session. We conducted a case study of an Asian office building with a new multiple split air-conditioning system by performing field measurements. A heat pump and a thermal storage system were installed in a DHC system with the aim of achieving high efficiency with minimum energy consumption and large reduction in greenhouse gas emission.
