Presents the results of research into the formation of a standardised approach to the life cycle costing of the sustainable design of buildings, with the particular goal of creating a method which is generally applicable to building projects, focusing on insulation, controlled ventilation, micro and biomass heating and electricity generation. The research concluded that green design solutions do not necessarily imply greater cost.
