The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) has published the Innovation & Design Credit Catalog, a listing of proven green building strategies that have been submitted and utilized by LEED Certified projects.
Building projects earn Innovation & Design LEED credits by demonstrating quantifiable environmental benefits through new strategies and techniques not specifically specified in the LEED Rating System - innovative strategies and techniques that go above and beyond. Points, or credits, are awarded to projects that develop innovative solutions, employ new technologies and educate or demonstrate commendable performance. When submitting an Innovation & Design credit, projects must outline the proposed innovative credit intent, requirements for compliance, and a summary of potential approaches that meet the requirements.
