Guidelines for Community Energy Planning - Softcover

Hang Yu, Professor, School of Mechanical and Energy Engineering, Tongji University.

Pro Yu’s research concerns the Net-zero energy building technology, community energy planning and design, heat transfer analysis of building energy storage system. She leads multidisciplinary research teams on integrated energy system, and her research has published in Energy, Renewable energy, Energy Conversion and Management, Energy and building, Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews. Yu’s research has received several awards and she has also served as a member of China energy research association of thermodynamics and engineering application committee, a director of Tongji green building society, and senior visiting scholar of Kyushu University, Japan. Now, she involves in the project “Solutions to heating and cooling of building in the Yangtze river region” (Grant No.2016YFC0700305-02) and “The study of energy system and planning optimization technology in urban new district” (Grant No. 2018YFC0704602). 

Dr. Zishuo Huang, Assistant Professor, College of Architecture and Urban Planning, Tongji University. 

Zishuo Huang get his doctorate degree in Tongji University. Dr. Huang’s PhD thesis is about integrated energy system planning, which research concentrated on the future form of urban energy utilization. A new methodology to realize multi energy sources synthetically and efficiently utilization in urban area has been proposed. On account of the urban construction situations in China, a type of urban energy planning method which can integrat in urban detailed plan being developed. Three energy flow analysis models used to support community energy planning at urban detailed plan stage.The research field of Dr. Huang in recent years stilled focused on urban energy system optimization. Now he is responsible for a research project from Shanghai Science and Technology Committee, which research target is clarifying the relationship between agents’ available information and the configuration of urban energy network.

Yiqun Pan is a full professor of Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning in the School of Mechanical Engineering at Tongji University, Shanghai, China.

Her teaching and research focus on building performance simulation, green building technologies and community energy planning. She has been teaching the building performance simulation and application in the past ten years and have authored two books about Building Energy Simulation and over 110 scientific journal papers. 

She has been participating many international research projects. She led the development of an EnergyPlus Interface in Chinese (VisualEPlus), collaborating with LBNL and Shandong University. She was the PI of several projects about building energy efficiency committed by Siemens Research Center and US Energy Foundation and LBNL. She joined the World Bank / Global Environmental Funding Project “ Research on Implementation Pathway of Integrative Energy Planning based on Demand Side Management” and was in charge of two sub-tasks: (1) Urban energy use prediction (2) Community morphology and energy use.
