FAQs about INc1 :

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

What happened to all of the operational policies and plans that we could pursue for Innovation credit under LEED v2009?

How do I meet the requirements for the “Community outreach and involvement” innovation option?

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?

I recall reading somewhere that with LEEDv4, projects will have to be successful in the Pilot Credit to earn the point.  Is this correct.

I can no longer find where that piece of information resides.  Any guidance is appreciated.

Btw, I find the new LEEDuser forum format is harder to navigate when researching similar questions, and then returning to the home page...does anyone agree?

Thanks!

Deborah, in my opinion it's right in the INc1 credit language: "achieve" the pilot credit is the requirement. I do recall that when the pilot credits were launched years ago, it might have been enough to have a solid go at it and give feedback, but those days are passed. I don't totally get what you mean about the forum navigation... but I know the LEEDuser team would love the feedback... can you say a little more?

Tristan, sorry - missed your question about the forum navigation - in this new LEEDuser forum discussion format I find it a lot harder to search through the questions and responses.  We have to click on a specific question (taking a guess that the question relates to what we are researching), and after reading the comments, "go back" to the original forum page, then scroll down to where we first left....it is nowhere as efficient a search mode, than the previous format. Thanks!

I agree with Deborah on the navigation issue. This particular question that Deborah asked is on the 7th page of questions. When I am done reading it (or typing this reply), I will be sent back to the beginning of the query on this credit, and I'll have to hit "Load More" and wait for it to load 6 times before getting back to where I was in my searching.
