“…With a large percentage of the population lacking access to constant electricity supply, any step taken towards energy efficient building is of great importance. The establishment of the BEEG is noteworthy since most green building rating tools kick started from the energy efficient point such as the GBI, LEEDv1 and many others [19][20][21]. The Nigerian BEEG provides regulations and information on the development of efficient residential and office energy costs [22].…”

Housing is a basic necessity of life. Provision of adequate housing is a perennial problem confronting the nations of the world. The problem is more challenging in the developing countries like Nigeria. Nigeria with a population estimated at over 200million people is plagued with the shortage of quality and adequate housing. The demographics from the National Bureau of Statistics shows the median age of 22.7 years. More than 60% of the population are less than 65 years. The implication is that more houses will be required to meet the need of the younger population with attendant environmental, social and economic problems. Increased consumption of physical and environmental resources is required for the development of more houses. Implementing green housing requirements in housing development ensures that resources are used sustainably in the provision of housing for the populace now and in the future.
