Scoring Tools for NGBS Green Certification
Select the appropriate scoring tool for your NGBS project below. The 2008 NGBS spreadsheets were developed using Excel 2007, and were tested in Excel 2003, 2007, 2010. Users of Excel 2003 or earlier may need to download a compatibility pack from Microsoft to use these spreadsheets. The 2012 NGBS spreadsheets were developed using Excel 2010 and are not compatible with Excel 2003 due to the conditional formatting contained within.
(The online green scoring tool has been retired. Those who used it in the past can still access previously scored projects and download the data to a Designer’s Report, but can no longer create or copy the projects within the tool.)
