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?

NC-2009 SSc4.3:Alternative Transportation—Low-Emitting and Fuel-Efficient Vehicles

Option 4: Vehicle Sharing Program - Table - BioDiesel

Option 4: Provide building occupants access to a low-emitting or fuel-efficient vehicle sharing program. The vehicle sharing program to which our building users have access is a fleet of four (4) vehicles. One (1) is an all-electric LEAF. This vehicle is both zero-emissions and has an ACEEE Green Score. Therefore, it tallies automatically in the submittal form table. The other three (3) vehicles are biodiesel. They are not zero-emissions nor do they have ACEEE Green Scores. Therefore, they do not tally in the table. However, they are low-emitting and should qualify the project for the credit. What is required on the submittal form to show the three (3) biodiesel vehicles as low-emitting and qualify the project for the credit?

I think you will have to find some way to back up your statement that they are low-emitting to have a chance (even though it seems obvious that they would be). I have not had much luck deviating beyond the ACEEE Green Score list, but I would probably try to document it under alternative compliance and see what they say.
