Abstract

The purpose of this research is to quantify the impacts of the heat island phenomenon on energy consumption for air conditioning, heating and hot water supply in the Tokyo metropolitan area. There are many indications showing that energy consumption for air conditioners may increase because of the heat island phenomenon. However, they ignore that energy consumption for heating and hot water supplies may decrease in winter. It is crucially important to take both aspects into account in order to quantify impacts. The results reveal that residential energy consumption decreases, while the commercial energy consumption increases. In addition, the total energy consumption decreases in the Tokyo metropolitan area under present air temperature rise due to the heat island phenomenon.
