21 Environmental design is a broad concept concerning the structural, design and systemic features of buildings defining their impact on their environment. It is related to the concept of green buildings, which refers to environmentally sustainable design, construction, operation, maintenance and end of life of buildings.

59 * The area is divided into buildings, groups of buildings or blocks that represent similar building stock, as seen suitable. Each component is assessed on its environmental design considering incorporated environmental design considering parameters listed in Table 1. The building(s) being assessed are scored from 0 to 1 with respect to each parameter.
60 * Parameter: Energy efficiency
61 * Methods to consider (examples): Improved insultation/ Reflecting windows, Improved ventilation/ Heat excahngers in ventilation/Smart lighting, smart eletronics/ Renewable electricity (solar/wind)/ Heat pumps
62 * Scoring: 0 points: No design incorporated / 0.5 points: some measures taken / 1 point: Good measures taken
