Maryland's High Performance Green Building Program

State of Maryland laws require the use of green building technologies when constructing or renovating State of Maryland-owned buildings that meet specific criteria. In response to the laws, the Maryland Green Building Council (Council) established the High-Performance Green Building Program (HPGBP) to guide Maryland state agencies and local educational agencies (LEAs) in programing, design, and construction of facilities. Below you will find the current version of the HPGBP, along with previous versions.
