Sustainability Assessment of Buildings as Part of Green Public Procurement-An Introduction
The special session organized by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB) will present and discuss the principles and tools for green or sustainable public procurement. On the basis of examples and experiences from Germany, transferable recommendations for action are to be developed. Sustainable procurement is a key component in public administrations. With the introduction of the Guideline for Sustainable Building, the Federal Government has enforced an important component of its sustainability strategy in the public sector. In the first step, the Federal Building Authorities are obliged by edict to evaluate their buildings, using the Assessment System for Sustainable Buildings (BNB). BNB has become the most important tool to implement high quality standards. The actual task is, to establish good conditions for a broad implementation of the BNB into the daily work of the public sector in total. The BNB provides a practical tool for holistic sustainability assessment for federal buildings. It is specially adapted to the procedures and needs of the public sector and can therefore be used to support sustainable procurement. In addition to the federal government, this can also be applied by federal states and municipalities and other public builders / clients. Further information is available on the Sustainable Building Information Portal, see www.nachhaltigesbauen.de. In the workshop the German Assessment System BNB will be explained and discussed on the basis of two examples: the assessment of the refurbishment of educational buildings and the planning of new research and laboratory buildings including a sustainability assessment. Additional examples from Germany, Austria and Switzerland are presented. In other papers, the possibilities of using renewable energy to operate buildings, as well as the application of principles of integral design, are discussed. It is planned to discuss with the participants the application possibilities of sustainability assessment systems for public procurement.
