Six months ago, we published our first subsection comparison of building standards focusing on Embodied Carbon: 'Comparing Embodied Carbon in Building Standards from Around the World’. We are back with another report, this time delving into another subsection of the criteria requirements: Energy.
Carbon emissions from operational energy are a major component of global emissions. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), energy-related carbon emissions account for approximately two-thirds of global carbon emissions with buildings being responsible for about 30% of global energy consumption (Source: IEA).
Building standards are often designed and developed to promote the efficient use of energy in buildings to achieve carbon reduction and advance sustainability. Many building standards include energy as part of their requirements and/or scoring. The table below provides an overview of building standards that include energy-related components as part of its audit:
● Required ○ Optional - Not Specified
Table 1: Overview of energy information for building standards. (Note: To see the table more clearly, please click the image to open it in a separate tab or zoom in)
Out of the 19 building standards from 'Comparing Building Standards from Around the World v2', 15 have references to energy, including: RESET, LEED v5, BREEAM v6, LBC v4.0, Passive House, Green Globes, Energy Star, BOMA BEST, DGNB (In-Use), SG Green Mark (2021), NABERS, Home Perfomance Index, CASBEE, HKGBC BEAM Plus, and China Green Building Standard.
For this report, we compare the energy requirements of each of these 15 standards from 6 perspectives:
Required / Optional
Performance Targets
Performance Monitoring
Prescriptive Design and Implementation
On-site Renewable Energy
Off-Site Renewable Energy
A summary of how each building standard stands in regard to the above criteria is presented in the table below:
Table 2: Overview of energy information from 6 perspectives for each building standard. (Note: To see the table more clearly, please click the image to open it in a separate tab or zoom in)
Required/Optional refers to whether each building standard mandates the assessment of energy to achieve certification:
Required: Energy is a mandatory requirement or prerequisite to obtaining the standard’s certification.
Optional: Energy can earn points towards obtaining the standard’s certification. The certification can still be achieved even if none of the energy-related components are implemented.
Details are provided in the table below:
Table 3: Overview of required/optional information for each building standard. (Note: To see the table more clearly, please click the image to open it in a separate tab or zoom in)
Energy is a mandatory requirement to achieve certification for two standards, both of which are modular components of their respective building standards: RESET Energy, LBC Energy Petal, and NABERS Energy.
LEED v5, Passive House, Energy Star, BOMA BEST, SG Green Mark (2021), and HKGBC BEAM Plus require either an energy audit as one of the prerequisites or there are minimum score requirements for energy-related components.
For BREAAM v6, Green Globes, DGNB (In-Use), Home Performance Index, CASBEE, and China Green Building Standard, energy-related components contribute to the score via points or credits, but are not prerequisites for certification purposes.
Performance Targets refer to whether the building standard requires a performance target for the project to hit. A performance target requires either a baseline threshold with a % improvement or a hard limit for kWh/sqm.
Building standards that score or award points for a project’s energy performance are considered optional.
Details are provided in the table below:
Table 4: Overview of performance targets information for each building standard. (Note: To see the table more clearly, please click the image to open it in a separate tab or zoom in)
RESET: Optional

RESET Energy projects that are accredited are required to choose their performance target to be certified against and anonymously benchmarked against other similar projects. Verification of whether a project succeeded in hitting its performance target is revealed after one year. (Weblink)
LEED v5: Required
LEED v5 requires a minimum performance target of a baseline that complies with ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1 or an approved equivalent standard with optional credits to be earned via improving through both prescriptive and performance methods against the baseline. (EA Prerequisite: Minimum Energy Efficiency, p53)

Baselines are established by using tools such as Zero Tool or World Bank EDGE. (Imperative 07, p42)
Passive House: Required
Passive House requires minimum thresholds on total energy consumption in kWh per square meter and a separate minimum performance threshold for energy consumption for heating and cooling. (Passive House Requirements)
Green Globes: Optional

New buildings need to be at least 10% lower than the threshold set for the nearly zero-energy building (NZEB) and renovation projects need to have an energy consumption of ≤125 kWh/ m2/yr. Additional points can be earned by hitting stricter thresholds. (EN 6.1, p42)
CASBEE: Optional
Performance targets based on the previous year’s numbers as a baseline are provided. CASBEE uses a Building Energy Index (BEI), a formula used to reflect the amount of energy consumed, with targets set at ≥1.10x, ≤1.05x, ≤1.00x, ≤0.90x, and ≤0.70x, corresponding to a score of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, respectively. (LR1.3a, p138)
HKGBC BEAM Plus (Existing Building Global Version): Optional
HKGBC BEAM Plus offers 3 pathways to earn points. Pointes can be achieved either via an improvement of Project Energy Use Intensity (EUI) compared with a Weather Normalised Source EUI baseline obtained from Energy Star Portfolio, annual energy use reduction compared to a 3-year average energy consumption baseline, or a reduction in the average peak electricity demand compared to a 3-year average energy consumption baseline.
