Following a 2017 guideline proposing demonstration projects of ultra-low-energy-consuming and near-zero-energy-consuming buildings, Gaobeidian, about 100 km south of Beijing, boasts a passive building construction area of 1.2 million square meters, the world’s largest passive complex. Local residents said the temperature in their apartments remains at 20 degrees Celsius without heating in winter or air conditioning in summer.
