How does LEED work?
When you have a LEED project, the design, location, materials, and how the project affects the surrounding area can earn you credits. If you attain a certain number of credits your project will be awarded a Platinum, Gold, or Silver, certification. It should be noted that neither manufacturers nor products can be LEED certified.
LEED is a point-based system where projects earn LEED points for satisfying specific green building criteria in six categories. Projects must satisfy particular prerequisites. The six categories include Sustainable Sites, Water Efficiency, Energy & Atmosphere, Materials & Resources, Indoor Environmental Quality, and Innovation in Design (projects can earn points for green building innovations).
LEED is a point based system where projects earn LEED points for satisfying specific green building criteria. Within each of the six LEED credit categories, projects must satisfy particular prerequisites and earn points. The six categories include Sustainable Sites, Water Efficiency, Energy & Atmosphere, Materials & Resources, Indoor Environmental Quality and Innovation in Design (projects can earn ID points for green building innovations). The number of points the project earns determines the level of LEED Certification the project receives. LEED certification is available in four progressive levels: Certified, Silver, Gold and Platinum.
