High Performance Buildings - Priyanka Mathur - 11-07-2014

High-performance buildings are designed and built to minimize resource consumption, to reduce life cycle costs, and to maximize health and environmental performance.

High-performance buildings can:
■ Achieve energy savings compared with conventional buildings
■ Reduce maintenance and repair costs, capital costs in many cases, water consumption and overall environmental impacts.
