Energy conservation is a long-term strategic approach of economic development. Subway is a most important way of urban mass transit, the energy consumption of subway accounted for a large part in mass transit. Therefore, retrofitting the subway for energy saving is close to the current policy, it can relieve the energy pressure, so it plays an important role on the sustainable development of economy. This paper conducted a survey of Beijing subway energy consumption, and summed up annual energy consumption data of the Beijing subway lines. Based on this research, this paper shows the energy-saving potential of the Beijing subway. Also it lays the foundation of energy saving transformation for subway.

With the rapid development of large-scale public buildings, energy consumption has increased, of which the energy consumption of comprehensive commercial buildings can reach 10~20 times the common building energy consumption, and has great energy saving potential. In this paper, a large comprehensive commercial building in Chengdu is taken as an example to analyze the energy consumption through the actual energy consumption data, viewed from the energy-saving and emission-reduction and static investment payback period point. The results show that the energy saving rate of the building can be achieved by 32.64%, the emission reduction is 6196.52 t CO2 per year, and the investment recovery period is only about 0.90 years, which provides a reference for similar buildings.

In the process of economic development, the consumption of energy leads to environmental pollution. Environmental pollution affects the sustainable development of the world, and therefore energy consumption needs to be controlled. To help China formulate sustainable development policies, this paper proposes an energy consumption forecasting model based on an improved whale algorithm optimizing a linear support vector regression machine. The model combines multiple optimization methods to overcome the shortcomings of traditional models. This effectively improves the forecasting performance. The results of the projection of China’s future energy consumption data show that current policies are unable to achieve the carbon peak target. This result requires China to develop relevant policies, especially measures related to energy consumption factors, as soon as possible to ensure that China can achieve its peak carbon targets.

Air-conditioning systems contribute the most to energy consumption among building equipment. Hence, energy saving for air-conditioning systems would be the essence of reducing building energy consumption. The conventional energy-saving diagnosis method through observation, test, and identification (OTI) has several drawbacks such as time consumption and narrow focus. To overcome these problems, this study proposed a systematic method for energy-saving diagnosis in air-conditioning systems based on data mining. The method mainly includes seven steps: (1) data collection, (2) data preprocessing, (3) recognition of variable-speed equipment, (4) recognition of system operation mode, (5) regression analysis of energy consumption data, (6) constraints analysis of system running, and (7) energy-saving potential analysis. A case study with a complicated air-conditioning system coupled with an ice storage system demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed method. Compared with the traditional OTI method, the data-mining-based method can provide a more comprehensive analysis of energy-saving potential with less time cost, although it strongly relies on data quality in all steps and lacks flexibility for diagnosing specific equipment for energy-saving potential analysis. The results can deepen the understanding of the operating data characteristics of air-conditioning systems.

Various ongoing studies regard light-shelves as one solution to the recent increase in lighting energy consumption. However, in previous light-shelf systems, the direction of incoming light was determined by external conditions, thereby limiting the efficiency of lighting energy saving. The purpose of the present study was to develop a movable light-shelf system with location-awareness technology and verify its performance. In this study, a full-scale testbed was established in order to test the proposed movable light-shelf system with location awareness as well as to verify its energy saving potential. The results were analysed and compared with the performances of previous fixed (Case 1) and movable (Case 2) light-shelf systems without location-awareness technology. The obtained results were as follows. (1) The proposed light-shelf system can respond to external conditions and to the location of the occupant by means of the control axis of the light-shelf module angle through modulation between the control axis of the angle of the previous light-shelf and the reflector of the light-shelf. (2) The proposed light-shelf system provides 90.0% and 86.6%/91.0% energy savings in comparison to Case 1 and Case 2, respectively.

In this paper, the operation mechanism of combined air-conditioning system with temperature and humidity decoupled treatment (CACSTHDT) was presented, and the energy saving potential and economics of CACSTHDT were primarily analyzed through compared with a traditional air-conditioning system. The results indicated that CACSTHDT could save up to 28.64% energy consumption in comparison with a traditional air-conditioning system. The operating cost in one summer only was 71.36% of that cost of traditional air-conditioning system.

The quantity of official cars increased with the speed exceeding 20% every year which need much more energy be consumed to meet the official car needs. To investigate the energy saving potential of official cars in China, This paper introduced the strategy method with systemic viewpoint to reduce official cars energy consumption through analyzing the reason of high energy consuming of official cars. The resulted showed that only reduce the quantities and maintenance cost, and decline the displacement and using frequency can realize fuel efficiency of official cars.

The traditional opinions regard energy as the main factor for the economic development, but not the key one, because there are different conclusions from the practical researches on the relationship between the energy consumption and economic development. The article utilizes the Granger casual test and Cointegration test to analyze the dynamic relationship between energy consumption and economic development in China. Based on our conclusion that economic development relies on energy consumption, some suggestions are given for energy saving and development in the long-term.

Hospitality industry in China has undergone a breath-taking development in recent years. However, it is burdened both by tremendous energy consumption and the responsibility of environmental protection. The paper is trying to find out the potential in the energy saving and emission reduction. Energy consumption data, in the recent five years, are collected from more than 20 hotels in Shanghai and other eastern China regions. Through the energy conversion factor matrix, these energy consumption factors can be converted into Tce value. Though the analysis of the Tce value, the paper provides a key solution to the problem at hand and possible ways of realizing the goal of establishing basis of carbon emission assessment modeling and cumulative comprehensive energy consumption database suitable for this industry, in the hope of establishing a foundation for future study of carbon footprint of the hospitality industry and its technical proposal for energy saving.
