By making it easier and more convenient for customers, tenants, and visitors to charge their electric vehicles (EVs), you are helping reduce pollution levels in your area. This benefits the environment and the local community, as reducing emissions will improve air quality and reduce health risks associated with air pollution.</span> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In addition, by installing EV charging stations, you are taking an essential step towards creating a comprehensive infrastructure that can help support the uptick of EVs in your community. This shows leadership and commitment to sustainability and can earn you LEED certification points.</span> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">By installing EV charging stations at your property or business, you can receive LEED points in three categories:</span><a href="https://westerndisposalservices.com/defining-leed-categories-energy-and-atmosphere-2/"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">energy and atmosphere</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> (EA),</span><a href="http://www.tboake.com/Leed-CA/cdnV1/LEED_CANADA-NCv1.0_ID.pdf"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">innovation and design process</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> (IDP), and</span><a href="https://www.usgbc.org/education/sessions/location-transportation-and-sustainable-sites-v4-12845825"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">location and transportation</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> (LT). Let’s take a closer look at all three categories.</span> <h4><b>Energy and Atmosphere</b></h4> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In the EA category, you can receive points for installing the charging station and using renewable energy to power it. Installing a charging station can earn points while using 100% renewable energy to power the EV charger can earn additional points.</span> <h4><b>Innovation and Design</b></h4> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In the IDP category, you can gain points for innovative green strategies implemented in your building or property, such as EV charging stations. This category is all about recognizing forward-thinking strategies that help reduce environmental impact.</span> <h4><b>Location and Transportation</b></h4> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Finally, in the LT category, you can get points for utilizing alternative transportation options like walking or biking to reduce vehicle miles traveled. Installing EV charging stations encourages the use of alternative transportation options and therefore qualifies you for LEED certification points in this category.</span> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">According to the</span><a href="https://www.usgbc.org/credits/new-construction-core-and-shell-retail-new-construction-data-centers-new-construction-1"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">USGBC</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, you have two primary options for winning LEED points in the LT category:</span> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Through Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE), you can gain points by providing charging capability to at least 5% of all parking spaces. This EVSE must supply a Level 2 charging capacity.</span></li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">By making 10% or six parking spaces on your property “EV Ready,” meaning each space has the capability of supporting Level 2 charging.</span></li> </ul> <h3><b>How to Get Started With LEED Certification for EV Charging Stations</b></h3> <p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-307" src="http://evchargingsummit.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Image-2-3.jpeg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" data-wp-pid="307" srcset="https://evchargingsummit.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Image-2-3.jpeg 1000w, https://evchargingsummit.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Image-2-3-300x200.jpeg 300w, https://evchargingsummit.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Image-2-3-768x512.jpeg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /> <p><em>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@homajob?utm_source=unsplash&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=creditCopyText">Scott Graham</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=unsplash&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=creditCopyText">Unsplash</a> </em> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Getting certified starts with understanding the rating system.
