The full name for the EEWH-RS system is EEWH Evaluation Manual II: EEWH-RS (Residential). It is a version tailored for residential buildings and has been extracted from the earliest version of Taiwan’s green building assessment system, The Evaluation Manual for Green Building. EEWH-RS applies to residential buildings including houses, multi-family housing, dormitories and nursery homes. It should be noted that the Daily Energy Saving indicator in EEWH-RS differs significantly from that of EEWH-BC and to some extent the Indoor Environment and Water Resource indicators do as well. Residential buildings contain mainly private living units, have a higher proportion of energy consumption from home appliances and have more spaces cooled with window-type or separate-type air-conditioners and less with centralized air-conditioning. EEWH-RS and EEWH-BC are the most generic assessment systems for new buildings, while EEWH-GF, EEWH-RN and EEWH-EC have more specialized applications.
