Part of Knauf Insulation DNA, contributing to creation of buildings regulations and promoting implementation, EU and national level is (EPBD …)
Today, focusing on energy only … not enough anymore, we need to go BEYOND!
Holistic approach encompassing all « key sustainability topics » is the direction Knauf Insulation wants to promote
Sustainability, a direction already indicated since long by dynamic green buildings rating schemes, starting with non-residential, but with Level(s) we are looking at:
Harmonization => common assessment methods & reporting system
Adaptation to local situations => flexible and accessible tool for all, priorities and targets set
locally
Mainstreaming => applied to all buildings through national initiatives (regulations …)
The development of Level(s) by the EU Commission with the support of all stakeholders is a unique opportunity Knauf Insulation supports & promotes.

Level 1 because:
Project was already in its construction phase
Start with the beginning and allow a « quick » jump into Level(s)
In parallel DGNB CORE 14 and 2018 version
Level 2 or Level 3 could be selected for some criterias a posteriori.

Level 1:
The common
performance assessment
Level 2:
Comparative
performance assessment
Level 3:
Optimised performance

In a country with no green buildings certification & experience, a fantastic / difficult challenge but great learning experience:
Bill of Materials, selection of right construction products and systems
Availability of supporting evidence of performances (emissions, LCA …)
Common language between architect, assessor, contractors, suppliers
Post construction checks (emissions …)
…
Based on 108 LCA, or equivalent > 99% of products
experience

Level(s) workshop, outcomes
![Page 12: Level(s) pilot project Brussels Experience Center in ... · Experience - Training Center, open to public Promotion of local systems & solutions (partners) First DGNB certified building](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022071103/5fdc54ab442d7d51f667d1db/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Level(s) workshop, outcomes
Challenges
Sustainability, not mainstream => increased cost, market not ready to pay
Sustainability across the chain will be as strong as its weakest point … installers,
suppliers … risk of sub optimized effort
Targeted incentives for different stakeholders (landlord, tenants …)
Avoid complex messages and/or tools
Possible solutions
Role of pioneering actors and critical mass
Importance of value creation and emotions => communication!
Role of public authorities, and GBC
Contribution of Level(s)
Opportunity for case studies and communication => demystification
Strong basis for Public Procurement
Simplified / harmonized concept of green building
Basis for national training program on sustainable buildings

LEVEL(s) Summer 2018
Two additional workshops organized in Slovenia by GBC, in Sept
and Nov.
A coalition of the willing's around GBC. It needs to move from
talking to doing!

Next steps for the pilot project & conclusions
Finalize assessment at level 1 and evaluate differences with DGNB, or how much Level(s) is more accessible compared to DGNB
Analyze the required efforts to move up to level 2 or 3, based on the DGNB certification
Communicate results and conclusions; complete the JRC survey
Continuous support of the Slovenia Ministry in its initiative to use Level(s) through regulations
Envisage the organization of a second workshop around the pilot project
Thank-you!
