GEAK
The Building Energy Performance Certificate of the Cantons (GEAK) is the official energy label of the Swiss cantons and by far the most frequently used building label in Switzerland. Due to its widespread use and uniform calculation methodology, the GEAK is suitable for rating and comparing buildings. It rates the following three aspects with seven different classes (from A = very good to G = very bad):
- GEAK Effizienz Gebäudehülle: Efficiency of the building envelope (i.e. the heating demand)
- GEAK Effizienz Gesamtenergie: Overall energy efficiency (i.e. the final energy demand, whereby the different energy sources are weighted with national weighting factors)
- GEAK Direkte CO2-Emissionen: Direct CO2 emissions (according to Switzerland’s greenhouse gas inventory)
