Selection

Since the submission of the projects technical documentation a preliminary evaluation of candidates will be undertaken by the Technical Secretariat, with the collaboration of a group of sustainable building experts.

The participating candidates will be assessed by the Technical Secretariat of the Prize using the software tool for environmental assessment of buildings "GB-TOOL" in its Spanish version called “VERDE” that has been developed by the Spanish team of the 's "Green Building Challenge Consortium," with a broad international consensus.

This tool will make a preliminary evaluation of the candidates allowing the selection of the finalists, using the ESTIMATED data provided by the contestants.

Once the five finalists or, when applicable, the number of finalists established by the Junta de castilla y León, have been selected, experts from Technical Secretariat would conduct an interview with the project authors and collect the information needed to undertake the final evaluation of the project. After the evaluation, the Technical Secretariat will conduct a "Technical Assessment Report” of each application that would present to the jury along with the panels or models made by the finalists, which will issue its ruling in the light of innovation, improvement, impact and promotion of sustainable construction in our Region.
