We certify your building

A Norwegian-adapted version of BREEAM-NOR In-Use (BNIU) was launched on April 8 by the Green Building Alliance (NGBC). This will make it easier and the process more transparent to certify buildings in BNIU.

At SustEvo, we offer specialist sustainability consulting and reporting services. Our experts support you throughout the BREEAM In-Use certification process, including the role of BREEAM In-Use auditor. The certification process can be seamlessly integrated into our energy mapping and energy management work.

We also assist with ESG reporting, documentation according to CREEM standards, and visualization of energy and sustainability data. In addition, we help develop tailored sustainability strategies at both building and portfolio levels.

Please contact us if you have any questions about certification of your buildings.

BREEAM In-Use (BIU) is a management and certification tool developed by the Building Research Establishment (BRE) in England for building owners and managers. It can be used to map opportunities in the building for reducing operating costs, energy consumption and environmental burdens, as well as helping to identify measures to increase the well-being factor and environment in existing commercial buildings and homes.

On April 8, 2025, the Green Building Alliance launched a Norwegian version of BNIU – an important step towards simpler and more relevant sustainability certification of existing buildings in Norway.

The new manual is based on BIU International v6, but is adapted to Norwegian laws, regulations and market conditions. The result is a more user-friendly and transparent process that makes it easier for owners and managers to certify their buildings in line with national requirements and ambitions.

Our consultants have many years of experience with BIU and offer assistance to both building owners and managers, either as consultants or as project coordinators throughout the certification process. We have also contributed to the development of the new BNIU manual in collaboration with Grønn Byggallianse, and are very familiar with the system and requirements.

We can also offer BIU and BNIU auditors for auditing certification and issuing certificates.
