2 ADVANCING GREEN BUILDINGS, EVERYWHERE 1 World Green Building Council 5 Regional Networks 75 Green Building Councils 914 full / part-time employees 32,000 member companies Millions of lives changed

3 MEETING GLOBAL GOALS

4 OUR WORK Healthy Buildings Net Zero Carbon Buildings Deep Renovation Green Cities National Policies

5 THE PROBLEM WITH BUILDINGS of global GHG emissions are from buildings Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Aenean tincidunt arcu enim, vel pretium felis egestas sed. Quisque massa velit, volutpat ac ligula 40% in, cursus mattis elit. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Aenean tincidunt arcu enim, vel pretium felis egestas sed. Quisque massa velit, 33% 2-5x of global energy is consumed by buildings more pollutants volutpat ac ligula in, cursus mattis elit. found inside buildings

6 GREEN BUILDINGS IMPROVE OUR LIVES AND BOTTOM LINE healthy Positive impact on the health and wellbeing of inhabitants good business homeowners, occupiers, tenants demand green & healthy buildings great investment sales premium from 1 to 30% Green building investment = increased asset value

7 What we call the environment, is our extended body you can t sustain one without the other. Deepak Chopra

8 HEALTH & WELLNESS The next trillion dollar market McKinsey & Company

9 HEALTHY IS THE NEW WEALTHY

10 GREEN BUILDINGS = HEALTHY BUILDINGS common criteria Green Building Rating Systems Climatic responsiveness / site / transportation links features Better Places For People Energy & Building Performance Location & Access Biophilia & Views Interior Layout & Active Design Indoor Environmental Quality (Daylighting, Acoustics, Thermal Comfort, Indoor Air Quality) Resource Stewardship (Water, Materials etc.) Daylight & Lighting Noise & Acoustics Thermal Comfort Indoor Air Quality Advanced criteria e.g. Innovation, social equity, user engagement, beauty User Engagement Look & Feel

11 IMPACT ON WELLBEING daylight & lighting noise & acoustics thermal comfort indoor air quality Positively impacts circadian rhythms Distraction from noise leads to dissatisfaction with the environment Reduction in performance when environment is too warm / cold Direct impact on respiratory systems due to VOCs, mold, bacteria, PM2.5/PM10

12 DAYLIGHT & LIGHTING Office workers working near windows received 46mins more sleep per night on average 1 6.5% reduction in sick leave of employees with good views and suitable daylighting 2 1 Cheng, Elzeyadi, 2011

13 NOISE & ACOUSTICS 99% People surveyed cited impaired concentration when exposed to background speech or noise 66% Drop in performance when exposed to distracting noise

14 THERMAL COMFORT definition Combined effect of: Temperature Relative Humidity Air Velocity Personal factors e.g. clothing, activity-level, metabolic heat.

15 THERMAL COMFORT Individual control over temperature (in a 4ᴼC range) 1 led to 3% Increase in logical thinking performance 7% Increase in typing performance 3% Increase in overall productivity 2 1 Wyon, Loftness et al., Lan et al., 2011 Recent studies show air-con standards developed in 1960s (still used today) based on a 40yo, 70kg male

16 INDOOR AIR QUALITY definition Quality of air inside an airconditioned environment. Common determinants: CO2 CO tvoc Mold & Bacteria Atmospheric Particulate Matter

17 INDOOR AIR QUALITY 30% Fewer sick building symptoms and better environmental perceptions 101% On average, doubling of cognitive scores in enhanced green buildings over conventional buildings 1

18 GREEN IS PRODUCTIVE 299% Higher information usage scores 288% Higher strategy scores 131% Higher crisis response scores 48% Higher focused activity scores 6.4% Higher sleep quality scores 26% Higher cognitive function scores 73% Higher crisis response scores 44% Higher decision making scores

19 CASE STUDY: SKANSKA

20 CASE STUDY: SKANSKA

21 CASE STUDY: SKANSKA

22 IMPROVING IEQ QUICK WINS power to the people Give occupants the power to control their immediate surroundings Add lighting controls & adjustable thermostats Check your air quality (CO2, VOC etc) Include plants that absorb VOCs THINK LONG TERM design it right Right specifications e.g. noise absorptive materials, low VOC, air change & filtration specs Zoning, separation of spaces EE facades can increase good daylight yet reduce heat gain & energy loads
