LEED : Pathway to sustainable future
The construction
industry in the world is booming and places like UAE, India and many others
will have a huge growth of building construction in next few decades. The
buildings are one of the main consumers of energy, and if we go on with the
current trends of energy consumption in building sector, the CO2 emissions
globally are spiking up and we are struggling to keep them low to avoid global
warming.
So, to avoid this, we have to make more energy and resource
efficient green buildings, which will help us keep the emissions low by
consuming less energy. Such efficiency in buildings can be ensured by various
certifications which are available globally and nation-wide. LEED,
also known as Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, is one such
certification system which is very effective and can be implemented globally to
all kinds of buildings. As a leed consultant we help clients design leed
compliant buildings.This certification system provides a rating to the
buildings on achieving a minimum number of credits/points as mentioned in the
LEED documentation.
The points under this rating system consists of various
aspects of sustainability in the form of site selection, waste management,
material selection, water, energy and other resources efficiency, etc. Being a Leed
consultancy we navigate our clients through all these aspects.
Weightage to each of these aspects is given in the form of points, and the
higher points a building achieves, the better and more greener the building is
consider. It helps in achieving sustainability without compromising on the
comfort of the occupants or the tenants of the building. Hence, they also
provide credits for indoor environmental quality, which includes factors
affecting the occupants. These factors include thermal, acoustic and visual
comfort. The LEED rating system, on achieving a higher score range also
provides a higher level of rating and as leed consultant our expertise in leed
documentation comes quite handy. The ratings from lower to higher are- LEED certified,
Silver, Gold and Platinum rating.
