The latest version of the LEED green building certification program, LEED v5, is an important milestone in the effort to align the built environment with the Paris Climate Accord’s 2030 and 2050 targets. The rating system addresses crucial issues such as equity, health, ecosystems, and resilience.
The rating system for existing buildings, LEED v5 for Operations and Maintenance: Existing Buildings is the first to be released and made its debut in draft form at the Greenbuild 2023 International Conference and Expo.
