Presentation Group 2- Green vs Intelligent Buildings

By going over our presentations as a group we were able to deepen our understanding of the differences and similarities of green and intelligent buildings. Many of us had found the same information and discussed the same points. The interesting thing to see was everyone's point of views and different takes on the definitions of a green and intelligent building.

In general, we exclusively looked at what it means for a building to be green and for a building to be intelligent. We identified fields of overlap and exclusivity. We decided that an intelligent building can make a building greener and vice versa. Another side note that we discussed within our group was that there is a measure of how green a building is with the leed standards but no method for classification for intelligent or smart buildings.
