This third edition of Green Buildings Pay presents new evidence and new arguments concerning the institutional and business case that can be made for green design. The green argument has moved a long way forward since the previous edition, and this fully updated book addresses the key issues faced by architect, engineer and client today. Green Buildings Pay: Design, Productivity and Ecology examines, through a range of detailed case studies, how different approaches to green design can produce more sustainable patterns of development. These cases are examined from three main perspectives: that of the architect, the client and the user. Completely revised with all new chapters, cases, sections and introductory material the third edition presents: over 20 new researched case studies drawn from the UK, Europe and the USA, written in collaboration with the architects, engineers, clients and user groups examples of office and educational buildings of high sustainable and high architectural quality an exploration of the architectural innovations that have been driven by environmental thinking, such as the new approaches to the design of building facades, roofs, and atria cases which demonstrate current practice in the area of energy/eco-retrofits of existing buildings documentation of the benefit impact assessment schemes such as LEED and BREEAM have had upon client expectations and on design approaches over the past decade beautiful full color illustrations throughout. In the fast evolving arena of green building, the book shows how architects are reshaping their practices to deal with ever more demanding energy standards and better informed users and corporate clients.

Green Buildings Pay examines, through case studies of commercial and university buildings, how different approaches to green design can produce more sustainable patterns of development. The case studies are described by their designers and often also by the client, thereby ensuring that the buildings are seen in the context of market realities.

In this study, we analyze the demand for green office building features among office tenants in the United States. An online survey of a random sample of office tenants in 17 major U.S. markets is employed. Respondents provided their perspective on green buildings and their willingness-to-pay (WTP) for green features. They have the highest WTP for improved indoor air quality and access to natural light. The results show that public firms, along with those in the energy and information technology industries are most likely to pay for green-labeled buildings. Regional and demographic preferences are shown in both WTP and attribute ranking. The findings provide implications for policymakers and property developers in terms of which green building features are considered to be most important for green building practices, and how demand for green features potentially differs across regions.

The demand for green buildings and to what extent firms accept to pay a premium price compared to conventional buildings is a lively debate and highly relevant for investors and policy makers. Policy instruments like the Swiss CO2-enactment and the Swiss Building Program encourage and incentivize investments in energy efficient properties. Based on a corporate real estate survey, I investigate the premium percentage price firms are willing to pay for green buildings. I distinguish between the decisions to lease, purchase, or retrofit a property. On average, I find that Swiss corporations are willing to pay a premium price of 3.0% for leasing, 4.75% for purchasing, and 5.0% for retrofitting. Using censored regression analysis I find that, depending on firm characteristics, the announced premium price ranges from 1.3 to 7.9 percent compared to conventional properties. My results indicate that firms from the building and financial service industries, as well as public corporations and authorities signal the highest willingness to pay.

In an effort to apply the sustainability movement to the built environment, sustainable construction has gained substantial strength and momentum in global society. A growing body of literature reveals the positive effects of sustainable, or green, buildings in terms of real estate market premiums, energy cost savings, employee productivity, and regional economic growth. In this context, my dissertation examines three research topics pertaining to sustainable buildings, and does so in three separate chapters.The first study discusses the effect of lease structure on the tenant's willingness to pay for energy-efficient building features, and compares the tenant's stated willingness to pay with the revealed rental value of those building features. According to the statistical outputs from various regression models, the effect of Triple Net (NNN) lease on the tenant's willingness to pay for energy-efficient building attributes is positive and statistically significant. Specifically, the NNN tenants were 1.6 times more likely to have greater than or equal to the 2 percent willingness to pay than the Full Service Gross (FSG) tenant group.The second study examines the relationship between sustainable building features and employee productivity. The findings indicate that 58 percent of the tenant respondents recognize that a building's environment influences their productivity. When it comes to individual features, the analysis reveals that those who are willing to pay more for better access to daylight, improved indoor air quality, individual temperature control, and green (non-toxic) cleaning are more likely to agree with the proposition that workplace environments increase productivity. The third study finds an association between sustainable building projects and regional green economies. The statistical results from the panel data regression analysis support my initial idea that the diffusion of green construction projects is positively associated with a metro area's economic performance in term of the number of green jobs. However, the magnitude of the impact is still minimal.Although a growing body of literature has addressed various issues pertaining to green buildings, fewer studies have shed light on the role of green buildings in sustainable urban planning and development. In this regard, my dissertation addresses the topic of green buildings within the urban studies context, by incorporating socio-economic, demographic, and political factors that affect green building practices.

There is no conclusive evidence in the existing literature to show that green buildings save more energy than conventional buildings. Why do buyers pay premiums for green buildings? This study empirically examines whether the “Green Mark” (GM) certification is either a signal for energy efficiency in buildings or a reputational signal segregating developers in the pooling equilibrium. Using a unique panel of electricity consumption data for a large sample of residential buildings in Singapore, we do not find significant differences in energy consumptions between GM-certified buildings and non-GM-certified buildings, on the days when the sky is shrouded by strong haze and the energy consumption in the buildings is relatively high. However, we find that the average transaction price of GM-certified dwellings is 1.61% higher than that of the comparable not GM-certified dwellings. With a difference-in-difference approach, we show significant and positive GM labeling announcement effects on housing prices and energy consumption. An instrumental variable approach is employed to deal with potential omitted variable bias and reverse causality issues between energy consumption and housing prices and to determine whether green housing is a sound investment that leads to intangible returns. The 2SLS estimates indicate that electricity consumption has no effect on housing prices implying that green housing premiums may not be as valuable without providing the expected energy savings.
