The AI Professional Practice Center (PPC) also has a compilation of valuable resources and information covering Appraising Energy Efficient Improvements in Residential and Commercial Properties.

There is also a Valuation of Sustainable Buildings Professional Development Program:
The Valuation of Sustainable Buildings Professional Development Program is a must for any appraiser valuing green buildings.
This Program consists of the following courses:
Introduction to Green Buildings: Principles & Applications
Case Studies in Appraising Green Residential Buildings
Case Studies in Appraising Green Commercial Buildings
Residential and Commercial Valuation of Solar

Participants in any of the above courses also have access to AI Green Resources – one convenient webpage that allows you to tap a variety of green resources. Topics are expanded regularly and include legislation, national and state government sites and programs, databases, design, and solar energy. Many of these resources can also help appraisers when completing the Residential Green and Energy Efficient Addendum.
This free benefit is available only to class participants. Appraisal Institute Designated members receive indefinite access; all other class participants are granted two-year admittance. The link to this helpful resource is provided with the course materials.
The Green Resources Webpage will be updated regularly; we encourage course participants to check it frequently for new links and submit their own!
