Sustainable performance in buildings : Time-frames and follow-ups in environmental rating systems
An environmental certificate gives information about the characteristics of the building today, but does not, as the current study shows, guarantee future performance. The question investigated in this study is if there are any demands at all on a newly constructed and certified building to provide any form of information that shows that the building actually perform according to the promises of the certificate. If there is, then which certificate does have these criteria and how common is it? This report is an attempt to compare popular environmental certificates for newly constructed buildings, but from the perspective of their demand of follow-ups. From the point of view of a property investor and a valuation professional, it should be of interest to identify measurable parameters that could provide historical performance data on a building. Also from an environmental perspective actual long term performance should be most important. In the paper we formulate three conditions that a long term credible environmental rating system should fulfill: any certificate should only be preliminary until it has been verified by actual performance metrics, continuous monitoring should be done and it should be mandatory to re-evaluate the building every fifth year according to updated versions of the rating system in question ; QC 20170124
