Is there any particular reason for which a Pilot credit from the general EBOM rating system such as the "Design for active occupants" credit would not be accepted for LEED v4 O+M - Data Centers?

Hi Charalampos,
I don't believe there is any reason this pilot credit would not be accepted for v4 O+M-Data Centers as long as the Data Center complies with the requirements of the pilot credit. This pilot credit has been approved for use in EB O+M projects and existing Data Centers would fall into this category.

Thanks Kimberly. I guess that the the "Local food production" credit would be appliacable to an existing v4 ata Center, as well.

Yes, that is correct. Local Food Production is also an approved pilot credit for EBOM v4 projects.
