The Global Building Performance Network (GBPN) is a globally organised and regionally focused network whose mission is to advance best practice policies that can significantly reduce energy consumption and associated CO2 emissions from buildings.
Launched by the ClimateWorks Foundation in 2011, as a non-profit Best-Practice Network, the GBPN is unique in that we have both a mandate to advance knowledge and expertise globally on building energy performance and the structure to achieve it. Through Regional Hubs in four priority regions (China, India, Europe, and the U.S.) and a Global Centre in Paris, the GBPN elevates and shares best local and regional expertise and lessons learnt.
What We Do
- Connecting Regional Hubs to harvest, share, monitor and assess the impact of energy building performance best practice policies globally
- Conducting cross-cutting research and analysis to advance knowledge and expertise that can initiate and foster the implementation of ambitious policies in the regions
- Communicating globally about the building sector’s mitigation potential and which policies packages can help deliver this potential
- Bringing together main stakeholders from the building sector and facilitating exchange of best thinking and knowledge on energy building performance at the global scale
