“…ISO 14001 provides guidelines by which firms or organizations establish their environmental management programs and implement the programs in the operation process in achieving the goal of environmental protection [34]. Other green standards or specifications presented demands on construction companies from the perspectives of healthy environment, energy efficiency, waste management, and reduction of all types of pollution [35]. In the context of China, ESGCB embodied the requirements of environmental protection in construction worksite.…”

Gaps between Awareness and Activities on Green Construction in China: A Perspective of On-Site Personnel

On-site construction stage has been considered as the key in practicing the view of green construction. Moreover, the unity of awareness and actions of on-site contractors on green construction plays a conclusive role through the implementation of green principles on the construction site. This study aims to investigate the awareness on green construction and to identify the gaps between the awareness and activities in adopting green specifications from the perspective of on-site personnel. A questionnaire survey was conducted with on-site personnel in Mainland China for identifying the gaps between the awareness and activities in the adoption of green construction. The results show that the level of awareness on a certain green requirement is higher than the performance of implementation. Nine groups with large gaps between awareness and activities are identified. Activities about pumping groundwater, burning wooden scraps, preventing strong light, reducing construction sound and noise, adopting green material, optimizing material plan, adopting water recycling devices, and employing energy efficiency machine cannot support high green construction awareness. Moreover, the "utilization of natural resources on-site" has the lowest performance with both low level of awareness and activities. This paper also suggests some useful implications for governments and departments of construction administrations to take measures in ensuring the thorough implementation of green activities on the construction site.

“…Nowadays, solar energy share is approximately 25MW, mostly used by private consumers [2]. Moreover, following modern trends, the Russian government encourages the implementation of modern green standards, such as BREEAM, LEED, and DGNB [3]. In Russia, with its cold climate, there is always the problem of power supply to a private house.…”

Residential sector in Russia makes up a significant part in the total energy demand of the country. The article demonstrates sensible energy saving potential in case of a single-family house in different climate conditions of the Russian Federation. Modern tools of building energy performance simulation and renewable energy modeling demonstrated a significant effect of the complex energy efficiency technologies, such as using of modern highly insulated constructional materials, installation of efficient heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, and implementation of sustainable energy. Annual energy use dramatically declines in comparing with buildings built according to outdated technologies. In particular, the use of photovoltaic modules can meet more than half of the building's energy demand and ensure the autonomy of a building during the warm season. These values differ depending on the location due to the large territory and diverse climatic conditions from the Mediterranean in the south to the Arctic ones in the north.
