Third-party certification is a great way to add credibility to any green building. Aiming for a third-party certification is not the only way to achieve a healthy and high performance space, but it is certainly one of the most efficient ways to guarantee you get one. Let’s explore some of the most common green building rating systems, such as LEED – Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design, The Living Building Challenge, the WELL Building Standard, ENERGY STAR Certification, Green Globes, and Net-Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB). Each certification differs in its scope and goals, but each offers valuable ways to benchmark energy and/or water use and receive recognition for a well-designed project.
