BREEAM is sometimes referred to as BREEAM Reports, BREEAM Rating, BREEAM Assessors, BREEAM Assessments, BREEAM Assessment Ratings.

How Is BREEAM Assessed?

BREEAM's aim is to educate building designers, owners and occupiers throughout Harrogate about the impact their building has on the local area. To do this, BREEAM gives a rating of Outstanding, Excellent, Very Good, Good or a Pass based on transport, waste, energy, health, water, pollution, materials, management and ecology.

How To Achieve BREEAM Excellence

The scoring for a BREEAM assessment in Harrogate is as follows:

• Outstanding: 85%+
• Excellent: 70%+
• Very Good: 55%+
• Good: 45%+
• Pass: 30%+
• Unclassified: <30%

What Does BREEAM Stand For?

BREEAM stands for Building Research Establishment's Enviromental Assement Method and was first published in 1990 by the Building Research Establishment (BRE) that covers Harrogate.

What Are The Benefits of BREEAM?

A BREEAM certification is a way of validating how good a building in Harrogate is in terms of the environmental impact through a globally recognised standard. It's the hope that the BREEAM assessment will help building owners and designers to improve their carbon footprint and make better use of their resources.

BREEAM aims to show that by building with the local area in mind, though capital costs may increase, you should save on operational costs in the long-term. This limits investor costs and makes the building more attractive when it comes to selling.

What Is A BREEAM Rating?

The BREEAM ratings for a new, non-domestic building in Harrogate are:

• Pass: standard good practice (top 75%)
• Good: intermediate good practice (top 50%)
• Very Good: advanced good practice (top 25%)
• Excellent: best practice (top 10%)
• Outstanding: innovator (top 1%)

It used to be that 'Good' was the maximum level that could be achieved with 100% being the maximum score in Harrogate from a BREEAM assessment. However, in 2008, a new 'Outstanding' category was added - although the percentages required for each level remained the same.
