I know you are quite familiar with business and finance consulting, but not, green building consulting. Then, what is green building consulting, and why do you need to consult before you start the building project?
According to Armstrong Williams, he said, “Real estate provides the highest returns, the greatest value, and the least risk”.
But I will like to rephrase this quote – “Sustainable real estate provides the least risk”. The construction sector, on its own, contributes to 50% of climate change, 23% of air pollution, 40% of water pollution, and 50% of landfill wastes, according to research conducted by Bimhow. This is why it is important to construct green buildings. And this can be achieved with the guidance of experts, that is, green building consultants.
What is Green Building Consulting?
Green building consulting is providing expert advice and guidance to building owners, architects, and real estate developers on the design and construction of sustainable and energy-efficient buildings. A green building consultant advises on the use of environmentally friendly materials and technologies. As well as, implementing green building standards and certifications.
One of the main benefits is that it can significantly reduce the environmental impact of a building. By using sustainable materials and technologies, such as solar panels, and green roofs, buildings can greatly reduce their energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. This not only helps to protect the environment, but it can also save building owners and occupants money on energy costs in the long run.
Another benefit is that it can help buildings achieve green building certifications. Examples of green building certifications include LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) and BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method). These certifications demonstrate to the public, potential buyers, and occupants that a building is energy-efficient and sustainable. It also helps buildings to attract more tenants and increase the occupancy rate.
Green building consulting services include:
- Energy modeling,
- Building audits, and
- Providing advice on the use of sustainable materials and technologies.
