1 LEED 2012 COMMISSIONING Presented by H. Jay Enck

2 “Some Buildings Not Living Up to Green Label”

3 CHANGE New Construction projects registered after June 26, 2007 are required to meet a mandatory minimum of two points (14% New/7% Existing) in order to achieve certification. LEED 2009 begins to assess project performance compliance with LEED Green Building Rating System requirements. – Project owners authorize GBCI to access and review their project’s Energy and Water Usage Data for minimum 5 years after occupancy.

4 ISSUE Why buildings are not living up to promise – Energy model and water usage predictions – Incorrect installation/programming – Operator error – No feedback loop to owner and operational team

5 OVERVIEW USGBC Structure The affect of USGBC on Commissioning Changes to LEED 2012 – Structure – New requirements Additional Prerequisites Changes to Fundamental and Enhanced Commissioning

6

7 “Buildings and communities will regenerate and sustain the health and vitality of all life within a generation.” USGBC VISION 2009-2013

8 “To transform the way buildings and communities are designed, built and operated, enabling an environmentally and socially responsible, healthy, and prosperous environment that improves the quality of life.” USGBC MISSION 2009-2013

9 Internationally recognized green building certification system – Created a paradigm market shift to sustainable principles – Increased awareness of building commissioning – Made minimum commissioning requirements a prerequisite for LEED Certification LEADERSHIP IN ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN

10 January 19 th 2011 - First Public Review – 5000 comments received USGBC Staff consolidates comments Send comments to credit guardians for consideration Guardians revise credit requirements as appropriate LEED 2012 revision finalized Recommendations go through technical committee to steering committee Steering committee tweaks language and finalizes rating system for executive committee to approve July 2011 – Second Public Review LEED 2012 PUBLIC REVIEWS

11 LEED 2012 currently includes an annual report card for all LEED-certified buildings – Statement of their energy consumption – Those that meet energy-saving marks will get an updated plaque for that year – Those that don’t won’t get their plaques revoked – People will start to understand that a 2002 plaque would mean something a lot different from a 2010 plaque CHANGE IN LEED 2012

12 LEED 2012 Existing Categories – Sustainable Sites – Water Efficiency – Energy and Atmosphere – Materials and Resources – Indoor Environmental Quality – Innovation in Design – Regional Priorities New Categories – Integrated Process – Location and Transportation – Performance
