“…Existe uma mobilização global para reduzir as emissões de gases de efeito estufa em todos os setores, e a construção é responsável por aproximadamente 40% do consumo de energia e um terço das emissões de gases de efeito estufa em todo o mundo. Portanto, é essencial que o setor da construção desempenhe um papel de liderança na luta contra o aquecimento global e as mudanças climáticas (ALAZAZMEH E ASIF, 2021;LI et al, 2021;MAFIMISEBI et al, 2020). É importante destacar que a sustentabilidade a longo prazo dos edifícios, especialmente aqueles com fachadas de vidro, é fortemente influenciada pelos efeitos das alterações climáticas e pela disponibilidade de recursos (WU E FLEMMER, 2020).…”

“…As diferenças climáticas, locais e outros fatores contextuais têm impulsionado a proliferação global de ferramentas de avaliação de edifícios. No entanto, o desafio tem sido desenvolver um modelo universalmente aceitável que possa ser usado como uma estrutura para gerenciar o desempenho da energia de uma edificação (MAFIMISEBI et al 2020).…”

Buildings have a huge role in the increase of energy consumption and in the energy-related CO2 emissions. Buildings are also important to the society's transition to a low-carbon economy, with increased energy efficiency and lower environmental impacts. This research aimed to identify through a systematic review of the literature relevant existing studies on the theme of energy efficiency in commercial buildings and analyze their connection with Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and Climate Mitigation. The databases Web of Science and Scopus were used with specific search criteria and resulted in 227 articles published in the last decade. This research illustrates a comprehensive approach related to the panorama of the relation between articles and SDGs and climate mitigation. In addition, the discussion of the literature review highlights examples with benefits and barriers forthe implementation of energy efficiency in commercial buildings, showing its relevant features.

“…Although various environmental assessment (BEA) concepts have developed, but practically, the present approaches limit to generic environmental performance evaluations of building rather than actual carbon footprints. The current lack of systematic auditing and benchmarking the lifecycle carbon emissions encourage to explore further for sustainable endeavours [43].…”

The ever-increasing concentration of Carbon footprint into the environment has drastically changed the climatic conditions. Among many anthropogenic activities, the housing sector remains one of the major contributors. However, a complete assessment of these environmental impacts throughout the life cycle still remains an area of concern. Most of the study does not assess the impacts by each phase of lifecycle. The current work presents a complete approach for carbon footprint assessment including planning, construction, operational, maintenance and dismantling & dispose-off phase. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) with boundary limitations of ‘cradle to grave’ was adopted. Thirteen housing units were selected as case study. These included detached, semi-detached and terraced types of construction. Selected units were developed in a virtual environment using Building Information Modeling (BIM). The study observed the average contribution range from 1.48 tons-CO2/yr to 2.85 tons-CO2/yr. On individual basis, the execution phase dominated the five phases with almost 43 %. The operational phase shared 39 % followed by maintenance (15 %), dismantling & dispose-off (1.8 %) and planning at the last (1.5 %). The categorization of environmental impact into embodied and operational carbon footprint observed the embodied part in dominance. A strong positive relationship between the area of housing units and resulting carbon impact was also observed. The work presents one of few environmental studies for a tropical housing sector assessing complete life cycle. The study provides a vital guideline to the designers for ensuring a sustainable environment by assessing and opting less carbon intensive options at early stage of planning and design.
