Abstract

The Portland Development Commission (PDC) and the Office of Sustainable Development (OSD) are collaborating on research and activities to expand the regional sustainable industries cluster. As part of that effort, this study is the first step in evaluating economic development opportunities within the green building industry, including opportunities for import substitution. Through interviews with leading local green building design teams, the project team identified opportunities for green building products, services and systems that could provide economic benefits for the City and state.
