NC-2009 SSc4.3: Alternative Transportation—Low-Emitting and Fuel-Efficient Vehicles
I am working on Healthcare outpatient clinic in Riyadh. There is no system of discounted parking since its health care facility, so if this is not the case, can i achieve the credit by providing prefered parking only.
Other thing, the 5% of the total parking is regarding FTE parkings or including the visitors parking wih FTE also.
Thanks.

Do all hybrid vehicles automatically qualify for this credit?
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?

The typical way to meet the intent of this credit is to provide preferred parking for 5% of the total parking capacity. This would include parking for both staff and visitors.

Thanks, Ellen for the clarification. One more thing. LEED concept is still not common in the KSA markets, Low efficient fuel vehicles are very rare. So, do we comply with this credit by fullfilling the 5% requirement as a preffered LEV parking. Thanks,

Then is this the best credit for your project? Who is going to enforce the preferred parking for the life of the project? Is this being driven by the owner and the users or by the LEED consultant? You could set aside a few spaces as a demonstration project / encouragement but not the full 5%.

Just want to clarify that we can easily provide the prefferd 5% parking in our project and since we dont have any low efficient fuel station near by the site, so can we achieve points under this credit, might be we can have the designated parking spaces today and will have the fuel stations in the future. Thanks
