The residential sector is the third-largest energy consumer and emitter globally and as such
is at the forefront of the energy transition and net-zero emissions pathway. To accelerate the …

Due to large energy consumption and carbon emissions (ECCE) in the building sector, there
is huge potential for carbon emission reduction, and this will strongly influence peak carbon …

Residential buildings, the “last mile” sector in the global decarbonization, have become the
most significant uncertain factor hindering carbon neutrality with increasing household …

To lead the low-carbon transition in global buildings, this study is the first to use the
generalized Divisia index method (GDIM) to identify the factors driving carbon emissions …

Building operations will be the most critical step in completing the “last mile” of global carbon
neutrality. To seek the best practical path to decarbonize commercial building operations …

With global carbon budget targets looming, residential buildings in top economies must
become carbon neutral as soon as possible to reserve more emission space for emerging …

As the two largest emerging emitters with the highest growth in operational carbon
emissions from residential buildings, the historical emission patterns and decarbonization …

Restraining the rapid growth of operational carbon emissions from residential buildings is
critical to achieve carbon neutrality. To illustrate the future decarbonization roadmap, this …

Building operations are the last steps to achieve global carbon neutrality, especially
commercial building operations with high emission abatement potential. Taking China and …

Megalopolises are important political and economic centers and offer the best opportunities
for decarbonizing commercial building operations. This study estimates the decarbonization …
