الملخصIn the context of growing global concern for environmental conservation and sustainable urban development, the adoption of Green Building (GB) practices is emerging as a pivotal solution. Built environment in Qatar is highly reliant on energy from nonrenewable sources, hence, necessitating sustainable development in all areas of this sector, especially buildings. With a specific focus on Qatar, this study aims to investigate the intricate web of drivers and barriers that affect the development of Green Buildings (GBs). Within this context, 21 barriers and 17 drivers have been recognized through literature review. Using a questionnaire survey, the opinions of experts were used to evaluate the identified factors (that is, drivers and barriers) on a Likert 5-point scale. Relative importance of GB drivers and barriers in the Qatari context is determined as a result of Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) analysis. It has been found that the key drivers are developing resilient and climate-responsive buildings in Qatar, improved indoor air quality, and the potential for increased profits. The key barriers are lack of GB demand from the local market, lack of contractor's experience regarding GB technologies, and lack of contractor's understanding regarding GB specifications. This study will contribute to a better understanding of the nature of the GB development in Qatar, enabling decision-makers to ease the process as well as initiate the policy-making necessary for increased uptake of such projects. In theoretical terms, the findings of this study will contribute to the body of knowledge related to GB projects.
