We’re hearing rumors that the hotly anticipated LEED Volume Program may open to additional participants sometime in November, likely in conjunction with Greenbuild. The program is based on Paladino’s work with PNC Financial Services and the USGBC to develop a streamlined certification process that helps volume builders of same type locations based on a prototype design embed LEED into the building supply chain and achieve certification in a much more cost effective way.

Based on the number and types of questions we’ve received from clients, we’ve authored a white paper titled “LEED Volume: What Is It and Do You Need It?” to help volume builders understand the value of pursuing a volume certification approach over a building by building, or ‘one off’ certification approach.

A portion of the white paper can be found on our website here, along with instructions to request the full version.

Cheers!
