Information

LEED v5 has been holistically created to guide decisions and actions to move us towards our global climate goals. This workshop focuses on the LEED BD+C rating system to provide steps and tools to deliver new buildings with ultra-low greenhouse gas emissions for operations.

This workshop teaches the steps and tools for achieving decarbonization, focusing on the first step: operational decarbonization design and planning. It will highlight the LEED v5 “recipe” for achieving decarbonization.

The workshop will provide an understanding of the importance and utility of decarbonization plans and how to establish these plans for new construction projects. Attendees will engage in a fun activity to model designs and factors and learn how to account for wild cards in a green building project.
