Green and Circular Healthcare Buildings: Circularity, Energy, and Well-being

Scope

The CEN WS aims to define a standardized methodology for circular and green principles for healthcare buildings. A Green Circular Compass is developed based on the evaluation of key performance areas: circularity, energy, and well-being. The document provides a detailed description of the methodologies for assessing these areas and their interrelated impacts on one another. It aims to support well-informed, trade-off-based decision-making. Where applicable, relevant existing standards are referenced to ensure alignment and consistency with recognized practices. The CWA will serve as a reference primarily for professionals in healthcare planning, architecture, sustainable design, and the construction sector.
