Amidst the urgent climate change and energy shortage concerns, this study tackles the complex challenge of achieving sustainable development goals in the face of uncertain low-carbon building transformation paths and unclear energy/carbon trading strategies. Employing a comprehensive approach, the research reviews integrated techniques for low-carbon building transition, including energy conservation, clean energy adoption, demand response, and smart EV integration. The study also examines energy/carbon flows and trading within building systems and analyzes global decarbonization roadmaps.

Despite global efforts, gaps persist in incentivizing the transition to energy-efficient homes. The study, encompassing policy evaluation and stakeholder feedback, sheds light on the critical hurdles. Notably, stakeholders highlighted the perceived upfront cost barrier, leading to a call for subsidies. Around 70% of surveyed stakeholders advocated for subsidies to overcome this obstacle.
