Over the past several years, owners, developers, architects, and engineers have begun to favor sustainable development practices to save operational costs, increase asset value, and display an ongoing commitment to the environment. During this time, the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Rating System has emerged as the "nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of high performance green buildings." More information about this program can be obtained from the U.S. Green Building Council's website: www.usgbc.org
The US Green Building council developed the LEED accreditation process to facilitate sustainable development. As LEED-accredited consultants, we specialize in the following energy-related facets of the LEED system.
