Carbon-neutral building is an important step to reach the target of carbon peak and carbon neutrality in the society. Therefore, many scholars have conducted studies on different aspects of carbon-neutral buildings recently and there is a need to perform a comprehensive review on the research and development in carbon-neutral buildings. This article firstly introduces the evolution and definition of carbon neutrality, its relationship with buildings, and the definition of carbon-neutral buildings. Secondly, it presents studies on different types of carbon-neutral buildings and different methods on the calculation of carbon emissions. Finally, the practical application examples of carbon neutral buildings, related evaluation standards and government policies are analyzed and suggestions and recommendations for future research and development are provided.
