Climate change mitigation efforts following the 2015 Paris Agreement have prompted countries worldwide to establish near-zero carbon emission regulations, aiming for net-zero emissions by 2050. Taiwan has responded with its ''Taiwan 2050 Net Zero Pathway,'' targeting 100% of new buildings and over 85% of existing buildings to be near-zero carbon by 2050. The international standard EN15978 (2011) recommends a dual-track approach for net-zero buildings, emphasizing both operational carbon (OC) and embodied carbon (EC) emissions. In line with this, Taiwan's Architecture and Building Research Institute introduced the Building Efficiency Rating System (BERS) in 2022 to assess OC, followed by the Low Embodied-carbon Building Rating System (LEBR) manual in 2023 for EC assessment. Consequently, major local governments like New Taipei City and Taipei City have begun implementing stringent net-zero carbon emission policies. This study analyzes EC emissions in two new hotel case studies using the LEBR assessment system. Through sensitivity analysis, we examine the influence of various factors on carbon emissions throughout the building's life cycle. Our findings indicate that prioritizing indoor flooring engineering, interior partition engineering, and optimizing span variation coefficients, along with employing carbon-reducing building components, can yield significant improvements in EC reduction. The research provides valuable insights for future hotel constructions, offering a framework to quickly identify effective carbon reduction strategies. These findings contribute to the broader goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions in the building sector, aligning with global environmental preservation efforts. |
