  ABSTRACT: The building energy efficiency is determined by the climatic region and the energy-saving measures. In this paper an assessment model for energy efficiency of the rural residential buildings in the northern China was established by the method of whole life cycle. The energy consumption of the rural residential buildings in different stages was analyzed through quantitative method in this model. At the same time, the corresponding energy efficiency assessment system was developed.
