Study on Green Building Development from a Spatial Perspective: A Systematic Review
Publication: ICCREM 2022
ABSTRACT
With the increasing shortage of resources and environmental degradation, energy conservation and emission reduction have become the focus of global attention. As an essential way to promote sustainable development in the construction industry, green buildings have been widely and rapidly built. However, it faces the challenge of unbalanced development in this process. It is crucial to seek solutions to achieve comprehensive development of green buildings from a spatial perspective. In order to deepen the understanding of the development trend and the changing pattern of green buildings in space, this paper reviews and summarizes the research methods and research results in the literature related to the regional development of green buildings, including the spatial evolution characteristics of green buildings and their influencing factors. This study highlights the latest developments and future needs in the field and helps provide a helpful reference for scholars interested in the research.
