Through the strong links with industry, standardization and government bodies, ENBRI members play a crucial role in creating, disseminating and implementing new knowledge and assuring impact of construction innovation across Europe. In particular and with reference to the ‘Transition Pathway for a resilient, greener, and more digital construction ecosystem’, co-created by the Commission and the ‘High-Level Construction Forum (HLCF)’, ENBRI is well positioned to facilitate consistency in standards, calculation methods and disclosure protocols of whole life cycle greenhouse gas emissions, for the designed and the as-built performance of buildings. ENBRI as such commits, in line with the Transition Pathway Actions 3.14 and 3.15, to coordinate the work at the different member institutes towards a common approach for calculation and disclosure of ‘Whole Life Cycle Carbon Emissions’. An ENBRI Working Group on WLC – GWP will be set up, the Working Group will be open for other organisations as well. The WG will be chaired by TNO (Mr. Keizers, H.L.J. (Huub) <huub.keizers@tno.nl>) A first report has already been drafted on the "Overview of WLC-GWP approach in 17 European countries"
