LEED-EB Reporting

LEED-EB and Leonardo Academy's Cleaner & Greener® Program
Earn LEED for Existing Buildings Credit
Earn the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED for Existing Buildings 2.0, Energy and Atmosphere Credit 5.4 (EA Credit 5.4) or LEED-EB Operations & Maintenance, Energy and Atmosphere Credit 6 (O&M EA Credit 6): Emissions Reduction Reporting.
Credit Intent
To document emission reduction benefits of building efficiency actions (and for version 2.0, to retire a portion of the reductions and reduce emissions in the supply chain).
Credit Requirements
- Identify building performance parameters that reduce energy use and emissions.
- A narrative is required for all versions of LEED-EB. The requirements for the narrative differ between the versions and can be confusing. View the Narrative Guidance Document for more details.
- Track and record emission reductions delivered by energy efficiency, renewable energy and other building emission reduction actions.
- Report emission reductions using a third-party voluntary certification program. (e.g. Cleaner and Greener®)
- For LEED-EB version 2.0:
- Retire at least 10% of the reported emission reductions through a third-party voluntary certification program. (To meet this requirement, the third-party voluntary emission reduction certification and retirement programs must be programs of credible organizations. Third-party programs shall notify any applicable local or regional emission reduction registries of the reported emission reductions.)
- Take action to reduce emissions in our supply chain.
- Ask the suppliers of goods and services for the building to do the same by implementing actions 1, 2 and 3 above.
- Confirmation letter documenting compliance with the requirements earning EAc5.4 or EAc6.
- Completed Copy of the Building Data Collection and Calculation Template
