Driving climate change action: the crucial role of buildings and construction sectors.

The ASEAN region is undergoing a substantial increase in energy demand, expected to triple from 2020 to 2050. This surge is largely driven by population growth and economic development. Notably, according to the 7th ASEAN Energy Outlook (AEO7), energy demand in the ASEAN commercial sector has been on a steady rise, growing at an average annual rate of 3.3% from 2005 to 2020.

Global warming, climate change, and resource depletion have forced us to reconsider energy usage and efficiencies over the last few decades. Residential and commercial buildings are both large energy consumers, so improving energy and material usage efficiency in this sector is a common research topic. According to a recent study, the Building Sector (BS) accounts for 40% of greenhouse gas emissions. The primary objective of this paper is to examine and assess the potential of Renewable Energy Systems (RES) and their combinations for enhancing energy efficiency in the BS. Specifically, the foc...
