Building-energy-use factors can be divided into two types according to their effects on energy efficiency:efficiency-correlated factors and efficiency-non-correlated factors.The energy-use only derived from efficiency-correlated factors affects the practical building energy efficiency,which is the basis for building renovation.This part of energy-use is defined in this paper as equivalent energy consumption of building energy efficiency.And an equation of equivalent energy consumption of building energy efficiency is developed by means of multiple regression analysis.With a sample of 33 office buildings ranged from 20 000 to 80 000 m2 in Shanghai,an equation of equivalent energy consumption of building energy efficiency is given.And the cumulative frequency curve of energy efficiency is also given for Shanghai.
