Simulation program
- Building is calculated by simulation program, called ECO2
<ECO2 Program>
12
Building Energy Efficiency Rating CertificationBuilding Energy Efficiency Rating Certification
Numbers of certificated buildings
- Certificated Buildings have been increasing
- The majority of public buildings have received 1st grade
- Buildings are recommend for facility improvements, if they receive 2nd to 4th grade
13
Building Energy Consumption CertificationBuilding Energy Consumption Certification
B.E.C.C is a mandatory program for existing buildings
- Owner of buildings has to attach EPC(Energy
Performance Certificate) when they sell or rent a building
Target : Apartment and Office buildings (2013~)
- Apartment (that have more than 500 households)
- Office building (whose gross area is more than 3,000m2)
Objective
- inducing people to choose energy efficient buildings
Penalty
- fine of violation : from $250 to $2,500
