This may be a very simple question, and perhaps our team is looking into this too deeply: We have a campus which we intend to use a Master Site with individual registrations (i.e. not a group). If we want to pursue a credit on just one building, is that allowed? For example, we want one building and only the area of that building to get the Green Power and Renewable Energy Credit, but only that building. It may put it into a different certification tier. Does this pose any problems if we still use the Master Site to claim points for other credits?
You rely on LEEDuser. Can we rely on you?
LEEDuser is supported by our premium members, not by advertisers.
The LEED Campus Guidance shows that this credit (EAc6) should be documented as part of the individual project anyway, so you should be able to pursue it only for that building. Individual projects on a campus are not jointly tied to a single certification level.
So, the one building can go for green power and only buy 35% of that buildings power usage, and the other buildings do not have to go for it. Is that correct?
That's my understanding. That one building (and not the others) will have to meet all the requirements of EAc6.
