Funded Activity Summary

Life-cycle cost and emission analyses of green-building implementation. In Australia, the annual average temperature has increased 0.9 degrees Celsius since 1910. Residential and commercial building sectors produce about 23 per cent of the national greenhouse-gas emissions. This project critically evaluates the cost effectiveness and greenhouse-gas emissions of green-building implementation in Australia. This will examine methods to lower cost and greenhouse-gas emissions from green-building implementation. A new high-tech scoring model is expected to be developed to identify cost-effective and low-greenhouse-gas-emissions methods to achieve specific green-star status for the Australian building and construction industries.
