How to Calculate Green Building Savings

Green buildings use less energy, water, and resources than conventional buildings.

Formula

Energy Saved = Building Size * Baseline EUI * Energy Savings %

Baseline EUI: ~15 kWh/sq ft/year for commercial, ~6 kWh for residential

Green Building Benefits

  • Energy: 25-50% reduction from insulation, HVAC, lighting
  • Water: 20-50% reduction from low-flow fixtures, rainwater
  • Waste: 50-75% construction waste diversion
  • Health: Improved indoor air quality and daylight

    A 5,000 sq ft green office saving 30% energy and 40% water at $0.15/kWh.

    1. Baseline energy: 5,000 * 15 = 75,000 kWh/year
    2. Energy saved: 75,000 * 30% = 22,500 kWh
    3. Annual savings: 22,500 * $0.15 = $3,375
    4. CO2 reduced: 22,500 * 0.92 / 2,204.6 = 9.39 metric tons
