LEED offers a comprehensive framework that promotes healthy, efficient, and cost-effective building practices for various types of buildings. LEED certification is applicable to a variety of building types, including new constructions, interiors, operations and maintenance, and core and shell.
Launched in 1998, LEED has been gaining traction around the world – in fact 1 of every 3 LEED projects is outside the United States. According to USGBC, there are more than 100 certified projects in Ireland, of which 60% achieved the certification in the past two years. (Data: USGBC, March 2020.)
