Abstract
Existing higher education buildings have an important role in the minimisation of greenhouse gas emissions from our built environment and in assisting the mitigation and adaptation of our society to climate change. However, operating and managing the building stock of organisations such as universities is complex because their diverse infrastructure and non-uniform building conditions can make it difficult to prioritise the resources needed to upgrade particular buildings and systems.
