FAQs about INc1 :

Is there a list of Innovation strategies available to v4 projects?

What happened to all of the operational policies and plans that we could pursue for Innovation credit under LEED v2009?

How do I meet the requirements for the “Community outreach and involvement” innovation option?

I’m confused about how many points I can earn for each strategy (innovation vs pilot credit vs exemplary performance). Is there a limit on each type of strategy if we want to earn all five Innovation points?

We achieved exemplary performance for more than two credits. Can we claim more than two points?

One of the credits we used for exemplary performance didn’t actually end up earning exemplary performance. Can we replace it with a different credit that did?

We didn’t claim one of our credits as an exemplary performance point under INc1 during the design review, but now we’d like to because it earned exemplary performance per the review comments. Is it possible to claim it now?

Under v3, residential projects were ineligible for this credit. Does anyone know if they are eligible under this v4 Innovation credit? Thanks!

Hi Erica, I can't find anything specifically addressing this, but in changes from v 2009, it doesn't state that it removes that ineligibility. I'll keep an eye out for this and come back to this if I find anything.

Yes -- it's odd. It does not specifically exclude them, but it doesn't make a point of including them either... Thanks Calie!
