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?

Are you charging to park in this garage? If so, I would think that the 20% discounted rate for qualifying vehicles makes more sense for you.

Ellen, is not charging, what can we do? The rate is the same for everyone. In what way can we establish preferential places?

You will have to find some way to incentivize using low emitting/fuel efficient vehicles if you want to achieve this credit. If there is a rate (it is unclear from your statement above), then you would need to discount it. If not, this may be one of those instances where this credit is just not applicable to your project.

If we establish a discount to low-emission cars, you may earn credit to encourage use. How do we locate these places in the drawings?

If you go with a discounted rate, you won't need to have a drawing to demonstrate compliance. You will need some sort of documentation to prove that you have this discount program in place - a signed statement by the owner and/or some sort of marketing material showing how you intend to inform building occupants of the program would be a good start.
