The Minergie<\/a> Association, based in Basel, has introduced the Minergie Net Zero Standard for new builds and building renovations. It has now presented the standard at an event in Zurich.<\/p>\n

Until now, there have been no specific guidelines for building owners, planners, local authorities and companies on \u201cconstructing buildings whose carbon footprint is truly zero over their entire life cycle\u201d, says Fabian Peter, Lucerne cantonal councillor and president of Minergie, in a press release<\/a>. Minergie Net Zero offers a transparent and credible framework.<\/p>\n

According to the press release, Minergie Net Zero buildings generate \u201cvery low greenhouse gas emissions over their defined 60-year life cycle\u201d. Regarding the procedure, it states that once the life-cycle emissions have been determined, the carbon stored in the building is deducted from the remaining emissions. This improves the carbon footprint in line with the Climate Act. For the remaining emissions, a balance is created using negative emission certificates.<\/p>\n

To achieve net-zero by 2050 as a country, \u201cavoidance\u201d alone does not go far enough as a measure. With Minergie Net-Zero, this could be achieved as early as 2026, albeit \u201cwith very high requirements\u201d, says Andreas Meyer Primavesi, Managing Director of the Minergie Association. \u201cWe factor in grey emissions. And are therefore significantly stricter than the laws coming into force in the next few years,\u201d he is quoted as saying. The canton of Basel-Stadt is aiming for net-zero by 2037, whilst many institutions want to be there by 2040.<\/p>\n

According to the information provided, Minergie is the Swiss building standard for comfort, efficiency and climate protection for new builds and renovations. The three well-known building standards \u2013 Minergie, Minergie-P and Minergie-A \u2013 can be extended to include the ECO designation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
