Buildings are responsible for about 40% of all energy consumed in Palestine; therefore, buildings are responsible for most greenhouse gas emissions. It’s necessary as the first step to developing the building sector in Palestine to be an energy-saving is to quantify the amount of embodied energy and the corresponding greenhouse gas emissions releases (CO2 equivalent) associated with each stage of the building life cycle; therefore, the result can be used to determine the stages and activities that need improvement. In this study, we’ve done the life cycle analysis of embodied energy and greenhouse gas emissions (CO2 equivalent), as well as the estimated cost of emissions for the typical building in Palestine. It’s found that 73% of energy consumption and 82% of greenhouse gas emissions happen during the operation phase. The construction phase takes 45% of the life-cycle cost. The embodied energy is about 40 GJ/m2, and greenhouse gas emissions equal 3.9 t/m2.
