LEED
LEED Certification
The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification program sets out strict guidelines and building standards for environmentally conscious building practices. By future-proofing our construction, Panache ensures lower energy costs and a smaller carbon footprint while incorporating new and exciting green technologies into each of our projects.
LEED Benefits
LEED guarantees that the planning and construction methods of commercial projects are environmentally sound, energy- and water-efficient, and low emission. Air quality both inside the units and outside the building are tested throughout the building process to ensure adherence to LEED specifications at all stages of development, including during maintenance and operation after the project’s completion. Regardless of the scale of the undertaking, these guidelines provide a strict framework to have the lowest impact possible on the surrounding community and environment.
In addition to environmental benefits, LEED requirements promise energy efficiency and air quality of the highest standard, using the latest in green technologies to bring down costs while increasing the workability and healthfulness of the space.
Benefits | At a Glance
Expansion
2.2+ million square feet is LEED certified daily. There are over 90k LEED projects.
Global
LEED works for all building types anywhere. LEED is currently in over 165 countries and territories.
Sustainability
LEED buildings save energy, water, resources. They generate less waste and support human health.
Value
LEED buildings attract tenants, cost less to operate and boost employee productivity and retention.
Energy Savings
Bringing in the newest technologies also means that maintenance costs will be lower over the life of the project, so the tools that bring you the best savings, in the beginning, will continue to provide for years. With reduced energy and water usage, lower maintenance and operation costs, and increased exposure to employees and tenants who value sustainability, LEED guidelines are beneficial for the environment and your bottom line. The project is designed to have easy access to public transportation to reduce emissions from commuters which lead to the air quality in and around the project increasing due to the focus on clean technologies and using materials that are locally sourced. LEED is the definitive guideline for developers in the modern age, and we pride ourselves on our adherence to the strict requirements of LEED certification.
