No impact category assessed as part of the life-cycle assessment may increase by more than 5% compared with the baseline building.<\/p>\n<p>The baseline and proposed buildings must be of comparable size, function, orientation, and operating energy performance as defined in EA Prerequisite Minimum Energy Performance. The service life of the baseline and proposed buildings must be the same and at least 60 years to fully account for maintenance and replacement.
