Abstract

China has established the goal of a carbon emission peak and neutrality schedule. With the life cycle carbon footprint of building in China taking half of the country’s total emission, thus reducing emissions in the building sector is critical to achieving the goal. This paper examines the relevant literature and data, summarizes the focal point and challenging aspects in the process of carbon emission peaking in the building sector and discusses the role of emission trading in this process.
