Summary:
The dataset provides a snapshot of constructed projects delivered through Calgary’s Green Buildings Priority Stream. It includes information on project type, pathway, size, and delivered units or floor area, along with modelled performance metrics such as energy use, greenhouse gas emissions, operating energy costs, and solar PV contribution where applicable.
Together, these metrics help illustrate the range of high-performance buildings being delivered in Calgary and the level of performance they are designed to achieve relative to a reference case. The dataset can support analysis of trends in energy performance, emissions reductions, operating cost outcomes, and the role of on-site renewables across different project types.
Some caution is warranted when interpreting the data, as not all metrics are available for every project. As such, comparisons should be considered illustrative rather than definitive. That said, the dataset provides a useful public snapshot of the types of outcomes the City can begin to track as more high-performance buildings are delivered.
