This research was carried out to evaluate and raise the energy efficiency of wood frame house. The commercial solution program CE3 (Construction Energy Efficiency Evaluation) was used for simulating the energy consumption in the single-family wood frame house. The results showed that the annual heating energy demand of the house was 160 kWh per 1 $m^2$ floor area. In order to decrease the heating energy demand, the following energy efficiency methods were applied to the simulation : a) simplification of building shape, b) decrease of windows area, c) application of high performance windows (with low thermal transmittance) and d) application of heat recovery ventilator. In case of replacement of the windows with high performance one with thermal transmittance 1 $W/m^2{\cdot}K$, the lowest heating demand of 80 $kWh/m^2{\cdot}a$ was obtained. The best combination of methods, application of high performance windows and heat recovery ventilator, showed heating energy demand 34.5 $kWh/m^2{\cdot}a$.

흡수식 2중 효용 냉온수기의 개발 현황을 소개하고자 하며, 흡수식 관련 연구개발이 보다 활성화되는 방향을 제시하고자 한다. 하절기 및 동절기의 중대형 빌딩의 냉난방 부하 대응에 흡수식 냉온수기가 차지하고 있는 비율이 높음으로 흡수식 냉온수기의 고효율화가 경제 및 산업적으로 건물 에너지 절감 및 국가 전체 가스 에너지 절약에 미치는 파급 효과는 매우 크다. 흡수식냉동기는 근본적으로 오존파괴의 문제가 없는 냉매를 사용하고 있고, 고급연료인 LNG를 주로 사용하고 있기 때문에, 지구온난화 유발물질인 $CO_2$ 배출량이 다른 연료에 비해 작다. 아울러 극소량의 공해물질(Nox, Sox)을 방출하며 공해문제를 별로 발생시키지 않기 때문에 흡수식냉동기의 연구개발을 거의 하지 않은 서방 선진국에서도 환경친화적인 흡수식 제품에 대한 관심이 최근에 급증하고 있다.(중략)

This paper proposes a novel design of auto light control system with high efficiency using RS-485 to save lighting energy in new and existing buildings. The proposed system consists of ALSU(Auto Light Sensor Unit) which is connected with RS-485 to control lighting appliances, ALS(Auto Light Unit), and Hi-FACS which is a monitoring system using communication interface. lighting appliances are automatically controlled by ALSU which detects moving objects. The total system is designed to be controlled by either manual or auto mode by using the ALS. In addition, the monitoring system receives the information on the state of the lighting appliances from ALSU and ALS to control the proposed system We compared the proposed system with the conventional one in functionality and energy saving point of view. Through some experimental results, the proposed system shows better performance in various circumstances.

K-BEMS System was introduced to reduce peak load and to save total energy of the 120 buildings that KEPCO headquarter and branch offices use. K-BEMS system is composed of PV, battery, and hybrid PCS. In this system, ESS, PV, lighting is used to save building energy based on demand prediction. Currently, neural network technique for short past data is applied to demand prediction, and fixed scheduling method by operator for ESS charging/discharging is used. To enhance this system, KEPCO research institute has carried out this K-BEMS research project for 3 years since January 2016. As the result of this project, we developed new real-time highly reliable building demand prediction technique with error free and optimized automatic ESS charging/discharging technique. Through several field test, we can certify the developed algorithm performance successfully. So we will describe the details in this paper.

A smart window is a new building material that can realize energy savings in a building. Smart windows can freely adjust Visible Light Transmittance (VLT) and solar gain coefficient (g-value) according to the situation. Smart windows include such technologies as Electrochromic (EC), Suspended Particle Device (SPD), and Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC). Recent research on building energy savings through the VLT and g-value control functions of smart windows is being actively conducted and meaningful results are being drawn. However, since most of the research is focused on energy savings, research on the indoor environment is somewhat lacking. A building is a space where people live and the comfort of life should be prioritized before energy savings. Therefore, in this study, analysis on the daylight performance of an office space was carried out. Through green building standards such as LEED, BREEAM, CASBEE, and G-SEED, the daylight performance was reviewed according to VLT value changes of the smart window. In addition, a study was conducted on the VLT range of the electrochromic façade that can maintain a comfortable indoor environment. The smart window used electrochromic control with a wide range of VLT. The study showed that the minimum VLT of a smart window that can satisfy G-SEED is 25% or more. In addition, it was found that the VLT change of the electrochromic smart window did not significantly affect the uniformity of the room. When the LEED standard was applied, the minimum VLT value of the electrochromic smart window that must be maintained according to each orientation of the building was derived.

In this study, in order to reduce the amount of infiltration generated from windows among the heat loss generated in the building, energy shutters were installed on the windows to conduct experiments on the change in internal temperature and amount of infiltration due to the pressure difference between the environmental chamber and the pressure box. As a result of the experiment, when the pressure difference was 0Pa, the initial temperature of the pressure box of window was higher than that of the pressure box of the energy shutter, but when the pressure difference occurred, the internal temperature of the pressure box of the energy shutter was higher. In addition, the amount of infiltration of the energy shutter was lower than that of the windows in all experimental conditions, and it was concluded that the reduction rate of the infiltration load (of the energy shutters) could be reduced by 53.3% compared to that of the windows.

Domestic buildings account for 25% of national greenhouse gas emissions and 20% of energy consumption, so energy efficiency improvement of buildings is recognized as the main target of national energy demand management. To improve the energy efficiency of the building, policies are implemented by preparing "zero-energy building national roadmaps" and enhancing the efficiency of national energy demand management through early activation as a result of expansion of the mandatory zero-energy building. Also, there is a growing need to verify the performance of energy savings after the construction is completed. Therefore, methods for evaluating energy performance of buildings should be suggested. This paper aims to develop and present methods for verifying energy performance of Zero Energy School, which can be applied internationally, by visiting domestic schools on-site at the same time as international standards and guidance analysis.
