Costs and Benefits of Green Building Development – Perspectives of Developers, Builders and Occupants

Dr. Benny Chow, Director of Sustainability, Aedas Ltd. and Chairman of Industry Standards Committee, Hong Kong Green Building Council

Governments in different countries are pushing real estate developers and investment communities for green building development. However, can financial value be attributed and attached to green building development? How can financial premium be associated? Is it beneficial to the rental and sales value? Will green buildings attract more tenants and investors?

Dr. Chow will share insights on how the costs and benefits of green buildings can be investigated scientifically in five major aspects. With statistics from reliable sources, he will also analyse the annual construction costs on green buildings, the payback ratio of operation costs, the lifecycle of buildings, and the impacts on health and productivity in green office.

However, it is common that companies face challenges when implementing these measures. For example, companies cannot easily measure and predict the effectiveness of green measures. Moreover, companies lack strategic direction to keep the momentum on green improvement towards sustainability.

The event is open to participants from all industries and would be of particular benefit to architecture, engineering and construction industries.
