The Building Green global dataset collects data on building energy codes and standards applicable to new and existing buildings, as well as their enforcement mechanisms and levels of compliance. The dataset is produced by the Global Indicators Group (DECIG), sponsored by the Knowledge for Change Program Trust Fund.
GENERAL INQUIRIES
In the global fight against climate change, buildings stand as both a significant contributor to greenhouse gas (GHGs) emissions and a promising solution.? Buildings account for 37% of energy-related emissions globally, driven by burgeoning growth in built-up floor area. In fact, the world adds the equivalent of a new Paris every five days – that is 6 billion sq meters of new floor area every year!
