Green Building Trends

New roles are emerging – Chief Sustainability Officer, Director of Energy

and Sustainability, etc.

Green Building market is large and growing rapidly -- $12 billion in

construction starts in 2008, $60 billion by 2010

Price premium for Green Buildings is shrinking, making them even more

economically beneficial

Existing building registrations up in all verticals markets

Focus on improved Operations , Energy Measurement & Maintenance

procedures that reduce operating costs

EPAct &Carbon are playing a more important role in the Green Buildings

discussion

Green Buildings are part of the

legislative and the boardroom

strategic agenda

Green is becoming a competitive driver…

75% said sustainability

is either an

important part of

corporate strategy or

expect it to be important

in the future

Why have a sustainability strategy?

1.To have a competitive advantage

2.To be seen as leaders in sustainability

3.Public interest in the environment

Recent global survey of CEOs on the topic of sustainability:

Where should you start? Target your facilities…

Why? Existing buildings account for:

40% of all energy

68% of all electricity

12% of the potable water

40% of raw materials

40% of GHG emissions

30% of waste output

The answer is not constructing

new Green Buildings…

The greenest building is one that already exists.

Greenhouse gas emissions from renovation are 30-50%

less than an equal investment in new construction

At the same time, 20% more jobs are created with

renovation projects

Green Buildings

“As green goes mainstream,

standard buildings will

rapidly become obsolete and

lose value. To avoid this

problem, building owners

should carry out green

renovations.”

LEED requirements address the complete life cycle of a building –

from the site on which it sits, to the cleaning of the facility.

Standardizes credit categories for all rating systems:

Funding green projects using Performance Contracting

Performance contracting is encouraged through state

legislation and industry as a procurement method that allows

projects to be funded using the energy and water savings

1. customer finances facility improvements

2. project energy, water and operational savings are enough to pay

for the financing with an attractive risk-adjusted ROI

3. customer keeps all savings

4. utility and operational savings pay for financing and are certified

by envio- max engineering so your risk is mitigated

And finally, don’t forget public relations!

One of the primary drivers for sustainability initiatives is public opinion!

Press releases

Hold an event to celebrate LEED and/or ENERGYSTAR awards

Marketing efforts should capitalize on your green image

Join and create sustainability organizations

Create a sustainability website/report

Promote your green efforts with tenants, constituents, employees,

neighbors, and the media

“enviro-max can assist in your companies marketing efforts”

Did You Know?

Typical building lifecycle operations and maintenance impacts of

greening can generate up to $1 per square foot of annual savings

Nearly half of LEED buildings had ENERGYSTAR ratings of at least

75, meeting the qualification for an EPA- ENERGYSTAR building

The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates that on average,

an additional $1 spent on more efficient equipment and buildings

avoids more than $2 in investment in electricity supply.

Average property value increases as a result of greening ranges

from is 4:1 to 10:1

“Working for a “cool” company or living in a ‘cool’ place is an

economic imperative for attracting workforce; green is cool”
