CarbonBuzz emerged from a realisation that the construction industry suffers from a poor awareness of the link between CO2 emissions and the energy use of buildings. The project partners sought a means to support the industry in its drive to manage the energy use and CO2 emissions from buildings and help architects and engineers to close the gap between designed energy use and actual energy use. The launch of the revamped CarbonBuzz energy benchmarking platform took place on 6th June 2013 at London’s City Hall. This free online tool, originally created in 2008, enables users to record, share and compare the real energy use of their building portfolios, and track the energy use of existing buildings, refurbishments and newbuild projects. Many of the shortlisted and winning entries from this year’s Greenbuild Awards will be featured on the site.
