Resources by LEED category

LEED Energy and Atmosphere

Buildings consume more than 2/3rds of all electricity produced in the United States annually. Improving the energy performance of buildings lowers operational costs, reduces pollution generated by power plants, and enhances comfort.

LEED Energy and Atmosphere credits encourage energy efficiency through improved glazing, better insulation, improved daylighting design / lighting power density reduction, high-efficiency HVAC&R equipment selection, renewable energy production, and building commissioning.
