LEVEL(S) project
LEVEL(S) project
The primary objective of Level(s) is to help construction and real estate stakeholders to reduce the environmental impacts of the buildings they invest in, design, build and occupy, by providing them with a reporting framework that links the building’s individual performance with European policy objectives.
Level(s) provides a common language for assessing and reporting on the sustainability performance of buildings. It is a simple entry point for applying circular economy principles in our built environment.
Level(s) offers an extensively tested system for measuring and supporting improvements, from design to end of life. It can be applied to residential buildings or offices.
Level(s) uses core sustainability indicators to measure carbon, materials, water, health, comfort and climate change impacts throughout a building’s full life cycle. It is a flexible solution for identifying sustainability hotspots and for future-proofing your project or portfolio.
By using Level(s) you are contributing to EU policy goals to strengthen the sustainability of Europe’s buildings, which are responsible for:
- 1/2 of all extracted materials
- 1/2 of total energy consumption
- 1/3 of water consumption
- 1/3 of waste generation.
Level(s) is open source and freely available to all.
