Comment:
I am glad to see that environmental performance testing of new and existing buildings is part of the Draft Scoping Plan (page 37, C-1 Other Measures Under Evaluation, Electricity and Commercial/Residential Sector. Including building performance and test-out criteria are the only way to ensure greenhouse gas reduction goals have been realized. The adoption of a building performance rating system means building owners/purchasers will be able to assess the operating costs of a particular property and account for that in the property value; this is a key step forward toward a low carbon economy.
