dc.description.abstract | Buildings are a major contributor to climate change, accounting for one third of global energy
consumption and one quarter of CO2 emissions. However, comprehensive information is lacking
for the development, evaluation and monitoring of mitigation policies. This paper discusses the
remaining challenges in terms of reliability and consistency of the available data. A review of energy
use in buildings is presented to analyse its evolution by building types, energy services and fuel
sources. Residential buildings are the most consuming, although tertiary expansion requires further
analysis to develop sound specific indicators. Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems
concentrate 38% of buildings consumption, calling for strengthened standards and incentives for
retrofitting. Electrification is rapidly increasing, representing a potential tool for climate change
mitigation, if renewable power was promoted. However, energy use in buildings will only curb if global
cooperation enables developing nations to break the link between economic growth, urbanisation and
consumption. To this aim, efficiency gains both in construction and equipment, decarbonisation of the
energy mix and a global awareness on energy conservation are all needed | es |
