Compared with LEED, the first certificatation program to evaluate green buildings, DGNB focuses more on encouraging lower-cost green building.

Green building, also known as green construction or sustainable building, is the practice of creating structures and using processes that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building's life-cycle: from design to construction, operation, maintenance, renovation, and demolition.
