UKGBC embarks on drive to close 'performance gap'

摘要

The UK Green Building has embarked on a drive to ensure commercial buildings live up to the energy performance standards promised by developers. Launching a research project which will focus on how to maximise building performance, the UKGBC claims there is a "performance gap" between the expected or designed performance of a building, and the actual performance once delivered. A task group conducting the research will attempt to find out what companies are currently doing regarding building performance, as well as determine best practice, and identify "gaps and barriers" that need to be overcome across the whole industry.
