As there is no Enhanced Refrigerant Management credit in LEED CI is it possible to pursue this under an Innovation in Design credit ? Has anyone succesfully pursued this with USGBC and if so does the whole building need to comply or just the systems within the project scope of the tenant fitout ? any thoughts / experience would be appreciated. thanks

Vivien, that's a tough question. Generally the absence of an Exemplary Performance option on a given credit explicitly means that no ID point wil be available even if an exemplary threshold is reached.However, in this case the credit doesn't even exist. I would thus say that it is an open possibility.

Vivien, I was curious if you actually pursued/applied for this innovation design credit? Or has anyone else applied for this innovation credit before? I have a current project looking to potentially pursue this as an innovation credit in CI.
