HARVARD ENERGY MODELS

 

Note: LEED EAc1 requirements have changed from version 2.1 to 2.2, so be sure to note which version of LEED each project used. All projects registered after 6/26/07 must achieve at least two EAc1 credits. This will improve the energy performance of all LEED certified green buildings by 14% for new construction and 7% for existing buildings.  For LEED-NC v. 2.2 EAc1 examples, see the LEED Reference Guide, version 2.2, pages 187 - 191. Additional LEED v2.2 examples will be posted as they are completed.
