Certification schemes for buildings

Here you get an introduction to certification schemes that are relevant to the construction industry; Nordic Swan Ecolabel, Eco-Lighthouse, Breeam, Futurebuilt, Norwegian Standard. What do the different schemes involve and where do they overlap? Examples of construction projects that have chosen different solutions to achieve their climate goals for materials and energy use.

We set aside time for questions and exchange of experiences.
