Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) is an internationally recognized green building certification system, providing third-party verification that a building or community was designed and built using strategies aimed at improving performance across all the metrics that matter most: energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved indoor environmental quality, and stewardship of resources and sensitivity to their impacts.
LEED Certified Green Buildings
LEED Certification is also available for existing buildings, and can often be obtained with only a few modifications to the building and equipment. The biggest factor in obtaining and maintaining this certification is building energy management systems that control energy usage and environmental impact. Cii Service would like to join you as part of your LEED team, working together with your engineers to create a LEED certified green building. For more information on LEED and energy saving ideas for your building, please contact Cii Service.
We have experts available to assist you in building controls, energy conservation and equipment maintenance. Further information on LEED certification is also available from usgbc.org.
