FAQs about SSc4.3 :

Do all hybrid vehicles automatically qualify for this credit?

Can a project pursue this credit via a combination of Option 1 (preferred parking) and Option 2 (alternative fueling stations)?

How should the signage read for preferred parking spaces?

For electric vehicle charging stations, how are the parameters established for fueling capacity?

I am working on a project with no parking spaces allocated. Can I earn this credit?

Our project is outside the U.S., and the LEED-approved ACEEE Green Score and CARB ratings and classifications don't apply to many vehicles. Is there another approach that is accepted?

Should I consider motorbikes and parking spaces for them under this credit? What about fleet vehicles?

We are pursuing SSc4.3 & SSc4.4. We have designated enough parking spaces for both credits, but would like to use the same signage for all of the spaces, reserving them for FEV/LEV or Carpool; has this been accepted by the reviewers, or do they require two separate signage types, one for FEV/LEV and one for Carpool?

Disclaimer that my response is only going to be mildly helpful....I remember some months ago a discussion about this on one of the LEEDuser pages and if memory serves, someone had received a review comment rejecting this approach because theoretically, if the spaces were combined then they could be entirely taken up by either carpooling vehicles or LEFEVs, not truly leaving the 5% for the other. I tried to do a quick search and couldn't relocate it but I think it is in here somewhere, or possibly in a LI. The safe approach would be to break them out separately.
