Over the years, as a greater understanding of the environment and its effects on human health has grown, the holistic concept of a green building with a natural environment evolved. As a result, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standards set by the U.S. Green Council (USGBC) launched and set out to address various environmental concerns for building projects.
What Does LEED Mean?
LEED, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, is the world’s most widely used green building rating system. The rating system measures the building or development project’s sustainability by considering water conservation, energy efficiency and use of sustainable materials and more. LEED certification is a globally recognized symbol showing sustainability achievement and leadership.
LEED provides a framework for virtually all building types, including new construction, existing buildings, operations, and maintenance, building and interior design, neighborhood developments and others for healthy, efficient, and cost-saving buildings.
LEED Certification
Whether doing new construction or a substantial renovation, building owners and project personnel must know the value of LEED certification and the opportunity to develop sustainability, resilience, and healthy environments.
Selecting the proper LEED rating for a particular building type helps identify the vision of the project’s scope and goals by choosing to go green. As a result, the LEED framework certification empowers owners and personnel to benchmark and celebrate their sustainability goals and achievements.
