Care about Next Generations, Think about Life-cycle Impact. While the environmental and human health benefits of green building have been widely recognized, this comprehensive report confirms that minimal increases in upfront costs of about 2% to support green design would, on average, result in life cycle savings of 20% of total construction costs — more than ten times the initial investment. The Costs and Financial Benefits of Green Buildings A Report to California’s Sustainable Building Task Force www.cap-e.com/publications Note: Electric chiller is typically the largest single energy user in the building HVAC system. To work out how much more efficient a chiller should be purchased in order to justify its energy cost savings over the lifetime (or any other span of time), a “Bid Form” can help... especially for all large chillers.
