Outline of Final Research Achievements

To design rational plans for mitigation and adaptation in the building industry, it is desirable to obtain predictions and assessments of the effects of reducing future GHG emissions from the buildingｓ and equipment, as well as determine the industry’s adaptability to climate change. Additionally, it is critical that this information be attained using simulations based on climate change scenarios founded on scientific evidence. Although building equipment engineers may be attempting to conduct a variety of impact simulations for future climate change on the buildings and equipment at the planning stages, climate data that incorporate the effects of future climate change have not been established, which complicates those simulations.
This study aims to improve these conditions and support rational examinations of the mitigation of, and adaptation to, climate change by the building and equipment, and develop future weather data in Japan and Asian countries.
