What is LEED?

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.

• LEED was created to:
• define "green building" by establishing a common standard of measurement
•  promote integrated, whole-building design practices
•  recognize environmental leadership in the building industry
•  stimulate green competition
•  raise consumer awareness of green building benefits
•  transform the building market
