Environmental and health related criteria for buildings - ANEC

IBO - Environmental and Health related Criteria for Buildings
Energy and Resource Consumption” and “C Environmental Loadings” for a building e.g. in
Ottawa, Canada:
Energy-related indicators (B1-B3) account for 34% within the category “B Energy and
Resources” (8% within the whole criteria-catalogue), the residual issues within “Energy and
Resources” refer to materials (55%) and potable water (11%). Within the category “C
Environmental Loadings” greenhouse gas and other atmospheric emissions caused by
facility operations or production of construction materials account for 30% (weighting within
the total system: 8%).
