Which one of the following best differentiates high-performance buildings (HPBs) from green buildings?

HPBs focus on operational efficiency, while green buildings emphasize environmental impacts during construction.

HPBs are certified, while green buildings are not.

Green buildings use basic technologies, while HPBs use advanced technologies.

Green buildings are designed for residential use, while HPBs are exclusively for commercial purposes.

High-Performance Buildings (HPBs) are designed to optimize energy efficiency, minimize environmental impact, and promote healthy indoor environments, focusing on operational efficiency throughout the building's lifespan.
Green Buildings focus more broadly on reducing the environmental impact during the design, construction, and operation phases. They emphasize sustainability goals like energy efficiency, water conservation, and the use of sustainable materials.

Hence option 1st is correct.
