Advancing Greenhouse Gases Emissions Inventory Compiling, Reduction Strategy Analyses, Reduction Activities Planning and Pilot Project Scheming for Residential and Commercial Sectors

Absrtact
In advancing greenhouse gases (GHG) reduction for residential and commercial sectors, this project has 5 major tasks, including 1) grasping the newest global information and tendency, 2) compiling the GHG emissions inventory from residential and commercial sectors, 3) reviewing the exist related strategies, 4) drawing up the reduction pilot projects, 5) disseminating information related to GHG reduction. 1) Information Searching and Analyzing: This project has searched and analyzed the GHG emissions reduction strategies for residential and commercial sectors in 6 countries(USA, Britain, Japan, Germany, Singapore, Korea)and 4 research institutes. 2) GHG Emissions Inventory Compiling for Residential and Commercial Sectors This project has finished 2 different inventory procedures, one for the public sites and the other for the private sites. This project has finished the GHG emissions inventories in 30 sites referring to 6 different types of buildings located in the north, middle and south of Taiwan. Furthermore, the GHG emissions calculation includes the direct emission, indirect emission and the total emissions per unit floor area. 3) GHG Reduction Information Disseminating This project has completed 4 different disseminating tasks and they include: a)Publishing 1,000 booklets of Calculating GHG Emissions from the Residential Sectors. b)Holding 4 expert symposiums and 1 forum and distributing GHG reduction information through these occasions. c) Publishing 4 issues of e-newsletters. d) Designing and launching an information website. The website address is www.globalwarming.org.tw. 4)Reduction Strategies Planning This project has analyzed the existing GHG reduction strategies in Taiwan and reviewed Japan’s strategies including “The Guidelines for Measures to Prevent Global Warming - Measures Towards 2010 to Prevent Global Warming” published in 1998 and “Kyoto Target Achievement Plan” published on 28 April 2005. In conclusion, this project has drawn up the reduction pilot projects for relat
