LEADERSHIP IN ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN

The LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Green Building Rating System™ is a voluntary, consensus-based national standard for developing high-performance, sustainable buildings. Members of the U.S. Green Building Council representing all segments of the building industry developed LEED and continue to contribute to its evolution. LEED standards are currently available for:

• New construction and major renovation projects
• Existing building operations
• Commercial interiors
• Core and shell projects
