FAQs about INc1 :

Is there a list of Innovation strategies available to v4 projects?

I’m confused about how many points I can earn for each strategy (innovation vs pilot credit vs exemplary performance). Is there a limit on each type of strategy if we want to earn all five Innovation points?

We achieved exemplary performance for more than two credits. Can we claim more than two points?

One of the credits we used for exemplary performance didn’t actually end up earning exemplary performance. Can we replace it with a different credit that did?

We didn’t claim one of our credits as an exemplary performance point under INc1 during the design review, but now we’d like to because it earned exemplary performance per the review comments. Is it possible to claim it now?

Borrowing credits from other rating systems

The Innovation credit guidance in the LEED reference guide says "points can also be earned by achieving selected credits from other LEED rating systems." And, on v2009 projects I have done this (i.e. used EBOM Green Cleaning Policy for a CI project). But, what does "selected credits" mean in the new credit language? Is there a pre-selected list of credits to choose from? Or, can I self-select credits as I have done in the past? Thanks for the advice!
