Description
Sustainable energy design helps to mitigate such impacts and contributes to a less energy intensive economy and a more sustainable environment. There are multiple elements and factors which impact the total building energy consumption. They range from building envelope elements to HVAC system components. None of these factors can be looked at in isolation; only the calculation of the overall outcome will show the effectiveness of the design.
Objective
The Energy criterion considers aspects associated with the total energy use of a facility that result in harmful emissions and climate change.
