LEED Scorecard

No. Electrification must earn all 5 of its points and Enhanced Energy Efficiency at least 8, which the tool reads from the scorecard. Renewable energy covering 100% of applicable site energy and a reduction of at least 20% in embodied carbon are performance figures that no point count proves, so you confirm them, and each counts only with its credit (EAc4, MRc2) marked Yes. Until all four are met, a total of 80 or more reads Gold. The four are taken from published commentaries on the rating system; confirm them against the current document.

Because a prerequisite or a Minimum Program Requirement is marked Not met, or the areas entered fail one: a floor area below 1000 ft², or below 2% of the land area inside the LEED boundary. No point total certifies such a project, and the line under the level names the requirement that fails. While any prerequisite or requirement is still unconfirmed, the level is labelled provisional.

MPR 3 requires at least 1000 ft² (93 m²) of gross floor area for BD+C, and the tool checks it in square feet, the unit it is written in, so 92.95 m² (1000.5 ft²) passes. MPR 2 also requires the project floor area to be at least 2% of the gross land area inside the LEED boundary. The 2000 ft² figure that circulates widely is not the requirement.

The Integrative Project Planning and Design prerequisite, which in v4.1 applies to Healthcare projects only. The LEED for Neighborhood Development Location path, worth 8 to 16 points in place of the other Location and Transportation credits, is described under that category rather than listed as a line; a project taking it marks LT credits to the same total. The v4.1 adaptations for Schools, Retail, Healthcare, Hospitality, Data Centers and Warehouses are not covered.

Registration and certification review under GBCI's BD+C schedule in US dollars, last revised March 2026, with an optional expedited review. Member rates apply to USGBC members at Silver level or above; an Organizational member pays the non-member rate. Fees are charged on gross floor area excluding parking. Combined review at 750 000 ft² and above and split review at 250 000 ft² and above have no published rate: they read "Confirm with GBCI" and are left out of the totals. Precertification, recertification and appeals are not included.

The GBCI fees are shown net. The one tax the tool knows is Saudi VAT at 15%, in force since 1 July 2020 on professional and consultancy services, and it is meant for projects in the Kingdom: switch it off elsewhere. It is on by default for the market-range lines; a second switch, off by default, adds it to the GBCI fees, because whether a fee billed from the United States attracts reverse-charge VAT in the Kingdom is a question for a tax adviser.

No. Nothing here talks to GBCI and nothing here is submitted. A credit marked yes on this page has not been earned: it is a planning position. Point values are transcribed from the published scorecard of the edition named beside each system, and USGBC issues addenda on a rolling basis.
