How Do You Qualify For An Energy And Environmental Design Green Building Rating?
No one questions the desirability of using high energy-efficient standards and building techniques in new construction. The construction industry says that buildings that are certified as being “green” outperform those that aren’t in sales, consumer satisfaction and rental occupancy. Anyone can build green features into a building. These days, though, consumers want verification from a third party that certain accepted standards have been met. This has led to the growth of cerfification programs both nationally and in the states. Find out which green building program is commonly used in your state. You can do this by contacting your area’s association of home builders. Using a program that’s recognized near you will avoid confusion and also allow you to attend nearby training classes. You will also be able to take some online training. You can also find local resources through the U.S. Green Building Council and EPA’s EnergyStar Program. (See the links in Resources.)
