Abstract

Abstract The study is part of humanity's current concerns of tempering climate change for sustainable development, in the context where the construction sector is responsible for a significant percentage of greenhouse gas emissions. In the present work, through a rigorous documentation, the authors synthesize several existing green and sustainable building certification systems. Extending the study from buildings to green neighbourhoods, to university campuses and even to green cities, models of their sustainable development are highlighted. The authors summarize the results of the various "green" ratings, initiating "Top 10 Greenest Universities in the world", demonstrating the interest of certification and classification. The paper presents the case study of the University of Oradea. From this perspective, participation in a rating of green campuses, as well as certification of buildings, are stimulating elements for approaching a sustainable development strategy. Thus, with the registration in the UI GreenMetric World University Rankings, the University of Oradea is set to rise in the ranking, which actually led to the improvement of the green criteria and implicitly to an orientation towards a sustainable development of the university campus. At the same time, the paper demonstrates that the energy certification of old buildings engaged in the "wave of renovations" is a tool for the sustainable development of university campuses.

建筑认证制度——大学校园可持续发展的工具

摘要这项研究是人类当前关注的缓解气候变化以促进可持续发展的一部分，因为建筑业在温室气体排放中占很大比例。在目前的工作中，通过严格的文件，作者综合了几个现有的绿色和可持续建筑认证系统。将这项研究从建筑扩展到绿色社区、大学校园，甚至绿色城市，重点介绍了它们的可持续发展模式。作者总结了各种“绿色”评级的结果，发起了“世界十大最绿色大学”，展示了认证和分类的兴趣。本文介绍了奥拉迪亚大学的案例研究。从这个角度来看，参与绿色校园评级以及建筑认证是实现可持续发展战略的激励因素。因此，随着UI GreenMetric世界大学排名的注册，奥拉迪亚大学的排名将上升，这实际上导致了绿色标准的改进，并隐含着大学校园可持续发展的方向。同时，本文论证了参与“翻修浪潮”的旧建筑能源认证是实现大学校园可持续发展的工具。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
