Abstract

Nowadays, one of the biggest worldwide problems is resource depletion and environmental damage. The construction industry has taken leading roles in energy conservation and emission reduction since buildings are the primary habitat for humans and are major sources of energy consumption and pollution emissions. In recent years, the concept of sustainability has drawn the interest of numerous disciplines. Green building (GB) is the fundamental element of sustainable development as it defines style of buildings designed and constructed by environmentally friendly principles. In this regard, this study draws attention to evaluating and addressing the most important topics: the priority criteria for advancing GB for commercial buildings. Therefore, to enhance and promote the development of green buildings, it is crucial to comprehend the factors that determine the successful application of green features to ensure that the obstacles during the construction process are overcome. The research identifies key criteria such as energy efficiency, material selection, water conservation, and indoor environmental quality through comprehensive literature reviews, surveys, and case studies. By analysing stakeholder perspectives, including architects, builders, and tenants, this research highlights the most impactful criteria for promoting green building initiatives. The findings offer valuable insights for policymakers, developers, and industry professionals, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable built environment. This study highlights the elements driving the acceptance of green buildings and barriers to their execution, providing valuable insights for stakeholders engaged in the ongoing discourse concerning green building development. Consequently, interested parties will better understand the factors affecting the priority criteria for the progression of green buildings in commercial buildings.
