Abstract: Green Building Assessment Standard (GBES) is not only an important technical regulation to guide green buildings' development, but also a necessary basis to judge whether a building design meets the required green building standards. Similar to the US's LEED standard and Japanese CASBEE standard, China has developed its own standard, the Assessment Standard for Green Building (ASGB), which considers the unique situation of China. However, since the ASGB standards are new, the scientific rationale behind ASGB needs to be improved. The British BREEAM was the first green building evaluation index of the world and is the leading comprehensive and integrative evaluation framework in green building evaluation. Therefore, it is useful to compare the BREEAM and the ASGB to enhance China's green building development. Based on the analysis of the differences between the ASGB and the BREEAM-NC (BREEAM for a new building), we found that China's indicators are mostly process control indicators, more than the process control indicators; while BREEAM-NC is mostly performance control indicators that emphasize effects control. This study has analyzed these two indexes from the indicator scopes, contents, and system frameworks. The result shows that the BREEAM-NC fits the goal and principle of green building development more than the ASBG. Therefore, China should strengthen the control of implementation effects of green buildings. The forthcoming green building evaluation standard has been improved based on the problems of the current ASGB.
