This paper proposes a comprehensive model to examine potential CO2 emission reduction in commercial and residential sectors through architectural enhancements and facility improvements considering long-term power generation best mix. The already proposed model of CO2 reduction options on demand side enables the detailed evaluation taken into account of the regional characteristics, such as meteorological conditions and building distributions. This demand side model is integrated with a long-term power generation best mix model to assess long-term potential CO2 emission reduction and the impact of demand side options on the power plant planning in electric power companies in the future. With this approach the prospective power generation structure is figured out and the economic efficiency and potential CO2 emission reduction by options in the commercial and residential sectors of Tokyo are evaluated.
