520 _aResearch on the commercial payback value of developing sustainable corporate buildings in comparison to the costs. Analyses the measurement tools checking buildings' energy efficiency. Compares production costs and levels of rent of sustainable buildings to conventional ones. Finds that less than 15% of extra costs are necessary to reach the most demanding level of building sustainability, the zero carbon emission building, which is much higher than the levels required by BRE Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) and Leadership In Energy And Environmental Design (LEED). Suggests that in the future, more evidence in rent levels, running costs and investment costs of sustainable buildings will increase their development and occupation.
