How does Green-e Energy count for the US Green Building Councils LEED points?
Under current Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) green building standards developed by the U.S. Green Building Council, points are awarded under the Green Power credit for purchases of RECs or renewable electricity that are Green-e Energy Certified or equivalent. The require purchase size ranges from 35-50% of the buildings electricity usage for two years. For more in depth LEED questions please contact the US Green Building Council.
