Abstract

Buildings are responsible for a vast amount of GHG emission. Therefore, most countries have set regulations to decrease the gas emission and energy consumption of buildings. These regulations are diverse targeting different areas, new and existing buildings and usage types. This paper reviews the methods employed for building energy performance assessment and summarise the schemes introduced by governments. The challenges with current participates are discussed and solutions will be recommended.
