We are in the process of building teleconferencing rooms for our project in San Francisco. Can we get ID credits for this or credit acknowledgement against the Transportation savings credits due to reducing travel and commuting through Teleconferencing?
Could not find anything related to this subject in the Alternate Transportation Credits and this may be a path to Innovation in Design Credits (ID) since this forum is getting more popular.
Thank You,

This could contribute to an Exemplary Performance point under the alt. transportation credits (SSc3 in LEED-CI), but you could have to implement, in the words of the Reference Guide, a "comprehensive transportation mangement plan" leading to "quantifiable" reduction in personal automobile use.I would say that teleconferencing could contribute to that, but "comprehensive" in LEED usually means more than one strategy being employed.
