Green Planet Building

Quality Criteria of the AUSTRIAN GREEN PLANET BUILDING

The content requirements for AUSTRIAN GREEN PLANET BUILDING correspond to the klimaaktiv quality criteria for construction and renovation. This Austrian seal of quality with more than 1.500 buildings already constructed in Austria also provides an excellent international basis for assessing and documenting the actual quality of buildings with high demands on energy efficiency and climate protection.

Overview of the requirements for AUSTRIAN GREEN PLANET BUILDING:

All criteria can be viewed in detail with the AGPB online tool. This online tool is also used for the verification and project review.

Target Requirements
Energy efficiency: heating demand, cooling demand, primary energy demand Calculation according to passive house institute with PHPP with national factors; alternatively: dynamic building simulation. The basic criteria of klimaaktiv must be observed.
Renewable energy sources CO2 emissions, calculation according to passive house institute with PHPP with national factors; alternatively: dynamic building simulation. The basic criteria of klimaaktiv must be observed.
Environmental protection / materials Environmental efficiency of building materials with OI3 indicator, calculated using national method eco2soft
Exclusion of harmful substances (HFCs), avoidance of PVC HFC-free insulating materials and / or as far as possible avoidance of PVC in windows, doors, foils, pipes, surfaces
Comfort - Thermal comfort Thermal summer comfort, calculation with PHPP OR dynamic building simulation OR detection of external sun protection
Quality of infrastructure Documentation of the infrastructure facilities in the catchment area, recommendation, but no minimum criterion
Economic Efficiency Life cycle cost calculation, documentation, but no minimum criterion

Upon completion of the building, quality assurance measures must also be documented and, in some areas, documented with measurements in the building.

Quality Quality assurance measures
Blower door test Measurement by test laboratory
Energy consumption monitoring Consumption measurement for electricity, heat; separated as possible according to consumers
Indoor air quality measurement Formaldehyde, total VOC by testing laboratory; the measurement can be omitted if the local conditions require this
User manual in local language Most important recommendations for dealing with particularly energy-efficient buildings. Important: short, concise, self-explanatory.
Supervised project support The quality of the planning is ensured by the targeted consideration of the stated objectives and their proof throughout the entire planning and implementation project. For this purpose, corresponding specialists from quality assurance systems established in Austria (eg klimaaktiv, ÖGNB, ÖGNI) or with comparable qualification (eg authorized consultants, engineering offices) are consulted
