It has become the common global strategy for coping with global warming,reducing carbon emissions and slowing down petrochemical energy combustion..The Chinese energy consumption mainly included industrial production,transportation and buildings industry.In China,the ratio of the building energy consumption accounts for about 28% of the total energy consumption,which will increase year by year with the increasing of building area.In recent years,the nearly zero energy buildings have attracted more attention from building industry and related research academy due to super low energy consumption and high thermal comfort.The research and development situation of nearly zero energy buildings in China were summarized,and then the related problems of nearly zero energy building were discussed.Meanwhile,the technical route of nearly zero energy building was put forward clearly.At last,the development direction of nearly zero energy building in China was pointed out.
