GREEN BUILDING PROGRAM
Building Low Emission Alternatives to Develop Economic Resilience and Sustainability (B-LEADERS) Project
GREEN BUILDING CODE
- Policy to improve resource efficiency of buildings to minimize GHG emissions and impacts on health and environment.
- All buildings, whether public or private, to incorporate GB in its design, construction, renovation and operations.
- Public buildings are required to be designed, built, and operated as GBs.
- Private projects in Planned Unit Development (PDU) areas are required to have GB certification under the BERDE Green Building Rating System.
Enacted: Nov. 2015
Building Low Emission Alternatives to Develop Economic Resilience and Sustainability (B-LEADERS) Project
- Provides green building incentive of 5-25 % discount on the real property tax on buildings that are BERDE-certified.
NEW INVESTMENT CODE
Enacted: Jan. 2016
Building Low Emission Alternatives to Develop Economic Resilience and Sustainability (B-LEADERS) Project
- With support from USAID B-LEADERS, provided institutional capacity development and technical trainings.
- The training contains several Green Building Training Modules developed to provide basic information on GB certification.
- Trained internal and external stakeholders on sustainability, low carbon agenda and Green Building Rating System.
GREEN BUILDING TRAININGS
Conducted: Feb. & Apr
2016
Building Low Emission Alternatives to Develop Economic Resilience and Sustainability (B-LEADERS) Project
- A collection of processes, procedures, forms and templates to support effective implementation of GB Code
- Guide private sector in developing and investing in GBs; also to support regulators in administering and implementing the GB Code.
- Three sections:
GREEN BUILDING TOOLKIT
Developed: Mar. 2016
- Mandaue GB Ordinance: simplified scope and requirements - GB Incentives: information on available incentives for GBs
- BERDE GB Rating System: guidance notes on certification.
Building Low Emission Alternatives to Develop Economic Resilience and Sustainability (B-LEADERS) Project

Hashtgerd New Town, Iran A master plan for low carbon and resilient housing
• Climate-sensitive urban form based on passive design. N-S orientation reduces cooling demand by 23%.
• Compactness reduces thermal loss: Mean SA:V ratio is 0.47
• Building configuration produces shades (6% reduction in cooling)
• Green spaces induces micro-climate during hot months.
• Efficient public transport in a mixed and dense urban structure
• Integrated energy & water systems • High quality pedestrian infrastructure • WW treatment system (50% reuse)
