Dorota Bartosz, Ph.D.

Polish Green Building Council (PGBC)

Director for Sustainable Construction at the Polish Green Building Council (PLGBC). Over 30 years of scientific, research, and teaching experience related to energy efficiency in buildings, gained at the Silesian University of Technology. Author and co-author of dozens of international and national publications. Speaker at numerous conferences and seminars held both in Poland and abroad. Within sustainable construction, particularly focused on the topics of the decarbonization process in the construction industry, circularity, energy performance, and environmental aspects of buildings (Life Cycle Assessment, LCA). Responsible for the substantive aspects of national and international projects carried out by PLGBC. Ambassador for the energy transformation of the construction sector. Author and coordinator of the first Polish certification for residential buildings, ZIELONY DOM (Green Home). Also involved in the topic of the EU Taxonomy, adapting it to guidelines for assessing construction investments in the context of their compliance with EU taxonomy requirements.

Is the emissions level of a construction product important?

Over the last twenty years, significant reductions in CO₂ emissions in construction have been achieved through improvements in energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources. However, achieving climate neutrality requires further strengthening of efforts to reduce the carbon footprint of buildings throughout their entire life cycle. This means that in addition to the energy efficiency of buildings (which translates into their operational carbon footprint), attention must also be paid to their embodied carbon footprint, which includes a range of additional factors contributing to the emission of greenhouse gases or, in some cases, their absorption. The total carbon footprint of a building, described by the Global Warming Potential (GWP) index, expressed in kilograms of CO₂ equivalent (kg CO₂e), can be determined by conducting a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of the building. In the presentation, I will address the question: Are we ready for this, what is missing, and how can such analyses be carried out?
