2 Need for green buildings and construction 2
3 Environmental impact of buildings One-third of global energy end-use takes place in buildings, resulting in one-third of global emissions or 8.6 gigatonnes (2005 Energy use in buildings will grow by 34% in the next 20 years, at an average rate of 1.5% Nearly 60% of the world s electricity is consumed by buildings 70% of the 9 billion people projected to be living on earth in 2050 will be living in urban areas New construction rate is 7% in China and 5% in India 1.3 million people die prematurely each year due to exposure to indoor air pollution from biomass combustion Source: UNEP-SBCI
4 Buildings and sustainbility Three drivers: Population growth Urbanization Modernization Energy used for heating, cooling, ventilation lighting,plug loads, water heating etc. Growth regions: Africa, Asia, Middle East, and Latin America In Zambia, there is a demand for 1.3 million new dwellings from 2011 to 2030, equating to one house every two minutes of the working day for 19 years.
5 Buildings are also key in climate change mitigation The buildings sector offers the largest low cost potential in all world regions by 2030 Source: UNEP-SBCI
6 Green buildings also bring co-benefits Key sector for national economic development: Green Economy Upgrade of skills and creation of green jobs (UNEP/ILO Green Jobs) Reduced operational costs at micro and macro levels Reduced health costs and improved living conditions Improved energy security Source: UNEP-SBCI
7 Green buildings bring economic benefits but need financial support upfront Risk and expense of initial investor Benefits to future owners and occupants Developer / Owner 1 Owner 2 Owner 3 Owner 4 Owner 5 $$$ + Financing Costs Refit Refit Demolition or Disassembly Savings - 7 Source: UNEP-SBCI
8 Green buildings and socioeconomic benefits Enhancing productivity: Indoor Air Quality: 6-9 per cent productivity gain Natural Ventilation: 3-18 per cent productivity gain Daylighting: 3-40 per cent productivity and sales gain Health benefits: Hospitals and schools, like hotels and restaurants, among most energy intensive buildings: Improved indoor environment = faster patient recovery, improved student performance Indoor air pollution, developing countries: impact on women and children of making improved stoves available, negative intervention cost & high economic return (WHO, 2006) 8 Source: UNEP-SBCI
