With Harish, we will talk about:

  • Overview of the benchmarking studies from a global to a regional scale.
  • What are the logics/rationales that go behind benchmark designs that can be adopted across the spectrum and also to individual companies with a portfolio of buildings .
  • The data that is required to produce a benchmarking study
  • What to expect from an LCA of the whole buildings – for different asset types, building elements and life cycle stages - using a mature marketplace as a case study to present these ideas.
