Performance Measurement Management of commercial buildings
Although there are many building in Slovenia, Europe, and elsewhere that are claimed to be “green”, “low energy”, or “high performance”, it is rarely clear on what evidence or data these claims are based. Such claims of high performance cannot be credible without standardized protocols that are applied consistently to the assessment of building performance, both in Slovenia and internationally. If claims of superior building performance are to be believed, it is essential that a common set of measurements be used and the results reported against meaningful and consistent benchmarks. Such protocols are also needed to give usable feedback to building designers and operators when measured performance does not match design intent and expectations.
