What BREEAM Building Performance requires
Asset performance verification against the BREEAM framework necessitates a holistic assessment of environmental, social, and economic sustainability factors. Compliance requires demonstrating an overall target BREEAM score percentage of 70, aligning with an 'Excellent' rating under benchmarks such as the BREEAM In-Use International Commercial Version 6. This performance is substantiated through rigorous energy management, consistent with ISO 50001:2018, mandating that energy consumption does not exceed a maximum of 120 kWh per square meter and that sub-metering is installed for all major systems. Environmental management protocols, guided by ISO 14001:2015 and the life cycle assessment principles of EN 15978:2011, demand a minimum construction waste diversion of 85 percent and procurement of sustainable materials reaching at least 80 percent. Health and wellbeing standards, drawing from the BREEAM International New Construction Standard, require active indoor air quality sensors and a minimum daylight factor of 2 percent, promoting conditions consistent with ASHRAE Standard 55. Further operational integrity is confirmed by active water consumption monitoring, automated refrigerant leak detection, and a passed cybersecurity audit for the building management system. The provision of at least five EV charging points supports sustainable transport initiatives, completing the comprehensive compliance profile.
