The building chosen for this LEED CI project already has a BREEAM rating - BREEAM is the UK's version of LEED. Has anyone got any experience of whether this could count towards either Option 1 - selecting a LEED certified building or Option 2 - Path 12 Other Quantifiable Environmental Performance. Any suggestions welcome!

I don't think that Option 1 will work but you should be able to make a strong case for Path 12. I don't have any experience with this but with a strong narrative (think BREEAM case study of building) I expect it would be accepted.

I submitted (about 3 months ago) a CIR on option 1 BREEAM in lieu of the LEED building and it was refused. I've not tried option 2 path 12 but could be worth submitting

Looks like option 2 path 12 is the one to go for. Thanks for the advice!

Has this worked out? It was rejected on our project.
