2. Overview of CASBEE, BELS and ZEB
CASBEE is an evaluation system that evaluates and ranks buildings and structures in terms of their environmental
performance. In addition to each building’s ability to reduce its environmental impact across a variety of areas including
energy and resource conservation as well as recycling, this system comprehensively evaluates the environmental
performance of each building and structure including its aesthetic appeal.
A feature of CASBEE is that it measures the impact of environmentally-friendly buildings on their property values andscores each of the evaluation items, comprising “Energy & Greenhouse Gases”, “Water”, “Resource Use & Safety”,“Biodiversity Sustainable Site”, and “Indoor Environment”. Another major feature is that its evaluation results are given
one of five ranks: S rank, A rank, B+ rank, B rank and C rank.
BELS uses the Assessment Guideline which Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT)
enacted for Indication of Energy Saving Capabilities of Non-residential Buildings in 2013 to improve energy conservationin Japan and to indicate applicable energy-related information in various circumstances, including the real estate market.
BELS complies with the Amendment of Energy Conservation Standards (enforced April 1, 2014). BELS is evaluated bythird-party evaluators based on a variety of measurements which the evaluation result is represented by a seven-level
rating system (no stars to six stars “★★★★★★”) since April 1, 2024 (Note).
ZEB is a building aims at annual zero primary energy balance by saving as much energy as possible with such means
as better heat insulation and high-efficiency equipment as well as generating energy by solar power generation andother power generation methods, while maintaining a comfortable environment. It is evaluated in the BELS
certification system in 4 stages, “ZEB (the highest evaluation)”, “Nearly ZEB”, “ZEB Ready”, and “ZEB Oriented”.
Logicross Yokohama Kohoku has received “ZEB Ready” Certification as the advanced building with a highly insulated
outer wall and high-efficiency energy-saving equipment looking ahead to "ZEB".
(Note) BELS certification started on April 1, 2016, with a five-level rating system (from ★ to ★★★★★), and it wastransition to a seven-level rating system from April 1, 2024. Note that BELS certification does not have anexpiration date.
