Abstract
Presents some of the key findings from a costing analysis, using real cost data for a broad range of sustainability technologies and design solutions; namely, the capital costs associated with reaching increased levels of environmental performance, as defined by the BREEAM and EcoHomes schemes, for different building types and in different locations. Demonstrates that significant improvements in building sustainability performance can be achieved at very little additional cost.
