BREEAM http://www.breeam.org/
BREEAM (Building Research Establishment’s Environmental Assessment Method) method (Great Britain) is described as a mother of sustainable building certification methods with more than 21 years of history. Its special version is tailored for European countries mainly by utilisation of national and European standards and SI units. Currently there are operational number of national schemes of BREEAM for Nederland, Norway, Sweden and Spain and it is expected that other European countries will develop their national modification in the short period of time.
The BREEAM method is based on the assessment of the 10 categories with different environmental weightings: Management (12%), Health & Wellbeing (15%), Energy (19%), Transport (8%), Water (6%), Materials (12,5%), Waste (7,5%), Land Use & Ecology (10%), Pollution (10%) and Innovation (10%). The resulting building assessment is declared in the following scale:

Unclassified < 30%
Pass ≥ 30%
Good ≥ 45%
Very good ≥ 55%
Excellent ≥ 70%
Outstanding ≥ 85%
