New Research on Green Buildings

My co-author and friend Nils Kok writes an excellent blog focused on "green" real estate.   As I see it, there are really three distinct issues related to the rise of "green" real estate.

1.  What does it cost to produce or retrofit a green building and to have some trusted party certify that the "green building" is green?

2.  Relative to similar sized buildings of the same vintage, how much less electricity and water do such "green buildings" consume?  Put simply, do such "green buildings" significantly contribute to overall sustainability?

3.  What is the re-sale premium and rental premium for "green real estate"?  My intuition is that this premium will be larger when electricity and water prices are high and expected to rise and in areas where "green" is sexy and valued.
