SUMMARY:Training Course on GRASSMed Rating System in Jordan
DESCRIPTION:With the ongoing commitment of the meetMED project funded by the European Union to fostering energy efficiency measures in buildings & appliances, the Lebanese Association for Energy Saving and for Environment (ALMEE ( https://www.almeelebanon.com/#:~:text=Known%20by%20its%20French%2Dlanguage,Environment%2C%20not%20just%20in%20Lebanon )), the French Agency for Ecological Transition (ADEME ( https://www.ademe.fr/en/frontpage/ )), Palestinian Energy and Natural Resources Authority (PENRA), and the Royal Scientific Society of Jordan (RSS ( https://www.rss.jo/ )) are organizing a “Training Course on GRASSMed” from 26th to 28th February 2024, in Amman.\n“Green Building Design and Construction” is a new trend that conquering our regional construction market, and South Mediterranean countries should be among the pioneers who tend to adapt and support these concepts.\nIt’s obvious that our national legislations do not offer the incentives that promote “Green Buildings”, that’s why it’s essential to build our own high standards of design and construction that contribute to saving our environment, and our energy without losing highly efficient performance of buildings as well as their internal thermal comfort.\nThe South-Mediterranean region’s “green sustainability” requires the integration of these high standards into a single rating system to provide a full package of “Effective and High-efficient Building Performance“.\nGRASSMed is a building certification system. Developed in Lebanon as part of meetMED II project activities, the tool is being adjusted to the contexts of other Mediterranean countries. It serves both as a regional platform for training stakeholders concerned with energy efficiency and as a performance standard for new and existing buildings in the residential and commercial sectors. GRASSMed aims to support greenhouse gas reduction in the building industry through the promotion of exchanges and the use of shared tools.\nThe three-day training course in Amman brings together meetMED II experts and stakeholders representing energy officials from government institutions, academics, and construction sector consulting firms from Jordan and Palestine. It aims to:\n\nTraining “Building” experts and stakeholders on the design and construction of sustainable buildings using the regional Green Building Rating System GRASSMed;\nCreating a space for exchange for institutional and professional players and for sharing knowledge and skills on sustainable buildings;\nPromoting the construction of sustainable buildings in Jordan and Palestine and encouraging the penetration and development of green materials, equipment, and technologies;\nPromoting energy efficiency in buildings (new and existing, social or standing) using a regional label (GRASSMed) as a vehicle for awareness, communication, and exchange of expertise;\nPromoting the regional voluntary green building certification system in addition to the national green labels (if they exist), verification, and validation of energy building performance and environmental qualities.\n\nAGENDA \n
