Hong Kong Whole Life Carbon Assessment and Sustainability Webinar

Join us at this webinar to explore and understand more about the RICS Whole Life CarbonAssessment and its application in construction projects worldwide.

Overview

Developed to provide continuity and reliability, while encouraging long-term thinking through reuse, recycling and redevelopment, the 2nd edition of RICS’ whole life carbon assessement (WLCA) in the built environment marks a revolutionary change in carbon measurements practices. Using the WLCA standard, assessors can estimate the amount of carbon emitted throughout the life cycle of a constructed asset, from the early stages of development though to the end of life. It gives visibility to embodied carbon, operational carbon, and user carbon – something that is vital to carbon calculations and a unique feature of the RICS standard. By giving visibility to the carbon cost of different design choices the standard aims to help manage carbon budgets, reduce lifetime emissions and deliver a net-zero future for the built environment.

The topic covers the following points:

• Introduction to the RICS Whole Life Carbon Assessment Standard 
• Case Sharing
