Inquiry

The intent of SS-C1 is the selection of a sustainable and efficient performing building. LEED is identified as the rating system to confirm this. Our project is a Commercial Interiors project in Hong Kong. The local building rating system is Hong Kong Building Environmental Assessment Methodology (BEAM) and to our knowledge their are no LEED rated buildings. Our client has selected a building for their tenancy conforming to the highest BEAM rating(Platinum level) and has therefore demonstrated the selection of a sustainable and efficient performing building. Will a BEAM Platinum rated building meet the credit intent?
