Green Buildings

The City of Calgary is working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, manage energy use, prepare for, and adapt to the impacts of a changing climate.

Promoting renewable energy sources, encouraging energy efficiency, and supporting the construction of Green Buildings all work together to make Calgary more environmentally friendly.

Calgary has demonstrated leadership in Green Building design and implementation for many years, including our public and privately owned buildings. From Green Building policies to streamlined permitting process for Green Building technologies, Calgary is undoubtedly a Green Building champion.
