摘要

Based on the investigation of residential building energy consumption in 500 households for 4 months in Hangzhou, and this paper selected 50 typical households to measure for 12 months. The results showed that there were still many residents lacked the consciousness of low-carbon consumption in Hangzhou, but many people would follow the government's policies or others to adjust their behaviors and habits. Therefore, in addition to optimizing thermal insulation performance of building envelopes, it was necessary to study the concept of energy use and popularize the low-carbon lifestyles with regional characteristics, meanwhile, the family population, family income and building area should not be considered to the main factors when we took energy-saving measures in the hot summer and cold winter region.
