How to get a LEED certification?

To get a LEED certification (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), your building will need to meet the minimum qualifications. LEED certification is a way to reward sustainable and environmentally friendly decisions during the construction process. These qualifications are that the building must be a permanent structure that has a minimum building-to-site area ratio.

Along with those qualifications, the building in question must also be in compliance with environmental regulations and standards. It also must meet the requirements of floor area and meet a minimum building occupancy number. Furthermore, it must share its energy and water usage data and maintain a minimum site boundary.
