Zero Emission Building Market

Market Introduction and Definition 

Zero emission buildings are structures that are made to emit no net greenhouse gases during operation. These buildings make use of cutting-edge building materials, sustainable practices, and innovative technology to reduce energy usage. High-performance insulation, HVAC systems, energy-efficient windows, and on-site renewable energy sources such as solar and wind turbines are majorly included in these buildings.   

Zero emission buildings are important for lowering greenhouse gas emissions and battling climate change. They are designed to be highly insulated, which helps prevent outdoor pollutants from entering the building. Besides, they lessen dependence on fossil fuels and other non-renewable energy sources by producing their renewable energy on-site. Also, they usually include advanced ventilation systems that deliver a constant supply of fresh air, enhancing indoor air quality and occupant health. Zero emission buildings are primarily employed by the institutional, residential, and commercial industries.  They offer better internal environments and lower operating costs for institutional buildings including hospitals and schools.

Key market dynamics 

The zero emission buildings industry is driven by a strengthening demand for sustainable and environment-friendly construction processes. The global focus on reducing carbon emissions and mitigating climate change is a significant driver. According to the Global Status Report for Buildings and Construction, the building and construction industry accounted for 34% of total energy demand and 37% of energy-related CO2 emissions in 2021. The sector's operational CO2 emissions from energy use exceeded 2020 levels by 5% and the pre-pandemic peak of 2019 by 2%. Furthermore, in 2021, the operating energy demand for heating, cooling, lighting, and equipment in buildings increased by roughly 4% compared to 2020. 

The buildings sector accounts for a considerable portion of Europe's energy demand, encompassing 40% of the total demand. Alarmingly, 80% of this energy consumption is produced from fossil fuels. This highlights the urgent need for action, investment, and policy initiatives aimed at promoting both short-term and long-term energy security. Achieving the decarbonization of the buildings sector by 2050 is imperative for achieving significant reductions in carbon emissions and advancing sustainability goals. However, the zero emission building market growth is hindered by high initial costs, technological complexity, and regulatory barriers, which can hinder widespread adoption. Nonetheless, these challenges also present opportunities for innovation, cost reductions, and policy reforms. As the zero emission building market continues to evolve, opportunities abound for industry players to develop scalable and cost-effective solutions, leverage emerging technologies, and collaborate across sectors to accelerate the transition towards a more sustainable built environment.

Recent Key Strategies and Developments 

  • Honeywell International Inc., formed a partnership with Nexii Building Solutions, a pioneer in green building materials and construction technology, in February 2023. The collaboration aims to bring together the experience of both companies to provide energy-saving solutions for small to medium-sized commercial buildings.  

  • Siemens introduced the Masterguard E-Hybrid system in July 2023, with the goal of reaching net zero energy consumption. This innovative technology is made up of three primary components: energy storage, solar panels, and intelligent building controls. By integrating these components, the technology allows buildings to generate, store, and manage their own energy rather than relying heavily on the existing power system. This independence from the grid not only helps to reach the goal of zero energy use, but also contributes significantly to environmental efforts. The Masterguard E-Hybrid system decreases dependency on external energy sources, lowering greenhouse gas emissions and hence the environmental impact. 

Regional/Country Industry Outlook 

Governments around Asia-Pacific, including China, are initiating major initiatives to combat climate change and improve energy efficiency. They are setting ambitious objectives for lowering greenhouse gas emissions. These objectives often include incentives and restrictions to stimulate the construction of zero-emission buildings. Subsidies, tax benefits, and building codes are used to encourage sustainable construction techniques. Furthermore, these governments are synchronizing their efforts with international accords such as the Paris Agreement. This global initiative aims to keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius. Asia-Pacific countries actively support global climate change mitigation efforts by establishing specific emission reduction targets and enhancing energy efficiency.

Furthermore, China has made significant investments in green building technology research and development, which includes renewable energy systems, energy-efficient building materials, and intelligent building controls. These developments make it easier and more cost-effective to construct zero-emission buildings in China. China has actively taken part in international efforts and collaborations to promote sustainable development and combat climate change. This includes collaborating with other nations, organizations, and projects to promote zero-emission buildings and share best practices in green building design and construction.

China, a major Asia-Pacific country, has lately taken great strides to promote energy-efficient construction standards. The T/CABEE003-2019 "Near-zero Energy Building Evaluation Standard, " issued in 2019, includes technical requirements and assessment procedures for near-zero energy building demonstration projects. This guideline evaluates the safety performance of near-zero energy buildings across the country and recommends corrective actions for projects that do not meet the standards.

The assessment method is broken down into three stages such as engineering design evaluation, construction evaluation, and operational evaluation. Energy conservation reviews involve evaluating the energy efficiency of each phase of a building's life cycle in order to detect any discrepancies between actual performance and planned outcomes. China has built about 5 million square metres of near-zero energy buildings. By the end of 2019, 18 demonstration projects around the country have reached ultra-low or near-zero energy usage levels. These buildings, which follow the "Technical Standard for Near-zero Energy Buildings, " were methodically planned and built to satisfy technical criteria while using local natural circumstances to reach their energy efficiency goals. This collaborative effort has sped up China's healthy transition to near-zero energy habits. 

???Public Policies

  • Building guidelines and standards in several nations mandate minimum energy performance criteria for new construction and renovations. These standards frequently contain requirements for generation-efficient building envelopes, HVAC systems, lighting, and renewable energy integration. Zero emission buildings criteria may be incorporated in building regulations to promote or require zero-emission development.? 

  • Green building certification programmes, like Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) , Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) , and Green Star, offer voluntary frameworks for evaluating and recognizing?sustainable building practices. zero emission buildings can be certified by attaining specific requirements for energy efficiency, renewable energy utilization, interior environmental quality, and resource conservation.  

  • Some jurisdictions have implemented mandates or targets for achieving net-zero energy or carbon emissions in new construction by a certain date. These mandates typically require zero emission buildings to offset all or a significant portion of their energy consumption with on-site renewable energy generation or other measures. Compliance with these mandates may be enforced through building permits, inspections, or performance reporting requirements. 

  • Governments may offer financial incentives, grants, or rebates to encourage the development of zero emission buildings. These incentives can include tax credits for energy-efficient building technologies, subsidies for renewable energy systems, and low-interest loans for green building projects. Financial incentives help offset the higher upfront costs associated with zero emission buildings construction and incentivize developers to invest in sustainable building practices.
