Assessing the Performance of Sustainable Buildings in China Synergies between BREEAM and the Chinese Assessment Standard for Green Building (Three Star)
Since its launch in 1990, BREEAM has set scientifically robust standards that go beyond regulation and standard practice in minimising sustainability risks for buildings and has encouraged solutions that maximise the benefits to stakeholders including investors, developers, designers and occupiers. It does this as part of a balanced and broad ranging evaluation of a project’s impacts and benefits that avoids over-emphasis on single aspects of performance at the expense of others.
Originally developed to meet a need from developers in the United Kingdom (UK), the method has been used as the basis for the development of many locally derived schemes including LEED (US) and Green Star (Australia). A number of international versions of BREEAM are currently operated by BRE or its partner National Scheme Operators and in total the schemes have been used in over 75 countries worldwide. This allows a degree of international comparison whilst allowing local flexibility to accommodate differences in climate, economic opportunities, technological and constructional variations and local needs and priorities.
The Chinese property market is growing rapidly and given the importance of China as a global economic powerhouse it is increasingly important that development is carried out in the most sustainable way possible. Environmental problems are severe in many of China’s
cities and regions. In addition, the social changes that are occurring have the potential to create problems for many years to come if they are not tackled. For this reason the Chinese government has set targets and in many cases has mandated environmental sustainability assessments under their Assessment Standard for Green Building (Three Star), verified through the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of the People’s Republic of China (MOHURD). Whilst this performs a valuable task in raising local practice and improving building design and construction, the method is not internationally recognised, creating difficulties when it comes to demonstrating performance improvements to international property markets.
BRE’s BREEAM International methods are increasingly being used to provide this global credibility within the Chinese property sector as they are widely understood and respected by global property players. For this reason BRE has carried out a detailed comparison of its BREEAM International New Construction 2016 standard with the 2014 version of the Three Star standard. This document sets out the alignments that currently exist between the two standards. This work has highlighted significant areas of overlap between the two standards. For building projects undertaking certification against both standards, this will help to improve the efficiency and cost effectiveness of assessments.
Introduction
This document sets out the areas where Three Star requirements and evidence align with those required under the BREEAM International New Construction 2016 standard. It provides assistance and guidance for those seeking to obtain a BREEAM rating alongside a Three Star rating by setting out the areas where evidence prepared to meet Three Star can be used to help demonstrate compliance under BREEAM.
The synergies identified in this document can be used to achieve significant reductions in cost and time in the assessment process where both Three Star and BREEAM assessments are being carried out. This allows buildings to be assessed without the need for duplication in evidence. It provides a clear route to dual certification that streamlines the process of complying with the local standards and achieving an
internationally accepted rating of whole building performance that is understood and respected by the international business community globally.
This document is based on current methodologies for the two standards. BRE is continuing to evaluate Three Star with the aim of identifying areas where mutual recognition may be possible in the future. At present this is not the case given the different natures of the assessment criteria and quality assurance processes employed by the two standards. BRE intend to update this document as the standards are significantly updated. BREEAM standards are typically updated on a 3 to 4 year cycle.
Purpose of this document
About BRE
BRE was established in 1921 as the Building Research Establishment – a Government owned and operated research body focused on improving quality and understanding in the construction sector following the First World War. Since 1997 it has had the status of a non-governmental organisation owned by the BRE Trust, a registered charity that is dedicated to research and education in the built environment. BRE is an international body and is one of the world’s leading centres of excellence providing independent and impartial, research-based advisory, testing, certification and training expertise in every aspect of the built environment. It offers a wide range of industry tools, guidance and training products and services.

About BREEAM
BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) is the world’s first sustainability rating scheme for the built environment. It is an internationally recognised measure of sustainability for master planning, infrastructure, buildings and communities, covering all stages of an asset’s life, including new construction, in-use and refurbishment. Through its application and use, BREEAM helps clients to measure and reduce the impacts of their buildings and in doing so, create higher value, lower risk assets that are better for people and the environment.
BREEAM building level assessments cover technical issues across ten categories as follows:
1. Management - encourages the sustainable management of design, construction, commissioning and operational processes
2. Health and Wellbeing - addresses the comfort, health and safety of occupants, visitors and others within the vicinity
3. Energy - encourages the sustainable use of energy in the asset
4. Transport - encourages sustainable means of transport for the users of the asset
5. Water - encourages the sustainable use of water in the asset
6. Materials - encourages the sustainable procurement and use of materials
7. Waste - encourages the sustainable management of construction and operational waste
8. Land Use and Ecology - encourages sustainable land use, habitat protection/creation and ecological improvement for the asset site and surrounding areas/habitats
9. Pollution - addresses the prevention and control of pollution associated with the asset location and use
10. Innovation - encourages the use of innovative solutions to improve the sustainability performance of the asset

About the Chinese Assessment Standard for Green Building (Three Star)
The Chinese Assessment Standard for Green Building (Three Star) has been developed by the Chinese Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development (MOHURD) and is operated on their behalf by the Chinese Society for Urban Studies for 3 Star rated buildings and local building control bodies across China for 1 and 2 star rated buildings. It includes an evaluation system for both public and residential buildings. The standard is divided into a design evaluation method and an operational evaluation method, both of which can result in certification. The evaluation system has eight assessment categories as follows:
1. Land Saving and Outdoor Environment
2. Energy Saving and Energy Utilisation
3. Water Saving and Water Resource Utilisation
4. Material Saving and Material Resource Utilisation
5. Indoor Environmental Quality
6. Construction Management
7. Operation Management
8. Promotion and Innovation
The indicators in each category are divided into mandatory/pre-requisite and optional/scoring items. The evaluation system also has additional bonus items covered by the Promotion and Innovation category. Green Buildings are assessed as 1 Star, 2 Star or 3 Star rated buildings. Whilst the lower ratings are certified through the local regulatory systems, all Three Star buildings are independently evaluated through a network of appointed independent experts in green buildings to give additional credibility to the rating claims.

Table 2 sets out in detail the synergies between BREEAM International New Construction 2016 and Three Star (2014 version) requirements and evidence. It maps all of the Three Star standard’s clauses against specific BREEAM criteria providing guidance on the degree to which evidence collected for Three Star can be used in BREEAM assessments.
Given the differences in the assessment and quality assurance processes between BREEAM and Three Star, it is not currently possible for BREEAM to accept certification against Three Star as evidence of compliance with its requirements, although this is an outcome that we will be working to achieve in the future. At present, design teams and other stakeholders will need to submit all evidence to the BREEAM International Assessor for review in the normal way. The aim is to minimise the amount of additional evidence that is required to demonstrate compliance with BREEAM and the guidance indicates the degree of additional evidence that will currently be required.
In addition to setting out areas of significant alignment, the table also identifies areas where the broad aims of the Three Star and BREEAM
issues are the same but methodological differences mean that there is no direct comparison between BREEAM and Three Star requirements. In these instances it is likely that compliance with Three Star issues will aid in achieving BREEAM credits but this cannot be guaranteed. In such cases, evidence produced for Three Star may be helpful in a BREEAM assessment but additional information will be required. It should, however, be possible to avoid unnecessary duplication of assessment evidence and/or calculations.
It should be noted that buildings assessed as 3 Star rated under Three Star are likely to find it much easier to demonstrate compliance with BREEAM. Those rated as 1 or 2 Star are likely to require considerably more additional evidence.
Table 2 provides details of the alignment for each clause in the 2014 version of the Assessment Standard for Green Building (Three Star) and the BREEAM International New Construction 2016 standard. The level of alignment has been classified as defined in Table 1.
How to use this document
Symbol Alignment classification Alignment details
Þ Good alignment
Evidence used to certify under Three Star can be used as evidence of compliance with the specified BREEAM criterion/criteria. Verification will be required by the BREEAM assessor but no further evidence is likely to be necessary. Note: This is unlikely to occur where buildings have been rated as 1 or 2 Star under Three Star.
p Partial alignment
Evidence used to certify under Three Star can be used as evidence of partial compliance with the specified BREEAM criterion/criteria. Verification will be required by the BREEAM assessor and further evidence will be required to demonstrate full compliance with BREEAM requirements. Note: This is unlikely to occur where buildings have been rated as 1 or 2 Star under Three Star.
General alignment
The outcomes and methodologies are broadly aligned but there are material differences between the requirements of the standards. For instance the required performance levels or calculation methods may be different. It may be possible that the evidence collected for Three Star can be used for a BREEAM assessment, although additional evidence will be required to demonstrate compliance with the specified BREEAM criterion/criteria.
− Not addressed
This classification applies where Three Star requirements are not covered in BREEAM New Construction or BREEAM covers the issue in a completely different way or are outside the scope of BREEAM New Construction (e.g. cover the operational/in-use performance of buildings).
