DESIGN and CONSTRUCTION • LEED Certification • Energy Performance • Conclusions and Recommendations • Questions and Comments
LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) Green Building Rating System A leading-edge system for designing, constructing, operating and certifying green buildings.
LEED-NC Ratings Certified: 26-32 Points Silver: 33-38 Points Gold: 39-51 Points Platinum: 52-69 Points
LEED & Stormwater Management Sustainable Sites Prerequisite – Erosion and Sedimentation Control Credit 5.1 – Reduced Site Disturbance Credit 6.1 & 6.2 – Stormwater Management Credit 7.1 & 7.2 - Landscape & Exterior Design to Reduce Heat Islands
Sustainable Sites Credit 5.1 – Reduced Site Disturbance: 1 Point Intent: Conserve existing natural areas and restore damaged areas to provide habitat and promote biodiversity. Note: One point Credit 5.2 can be obtained as an indirect point if the project qualifies for the SSCredit 2.
Sustainable Sites Credit 6.1 & 6.2 – Stormwater Management: 2 Points (Rate & Quantity) Intent: Limit disruption of natural water flows by minimizing stormwater runoff, increasing on-site infiltration and reducing contaminations.
Sustainable Sites Credit 7.1 & 7.2 - Landscape & Exterior Design to Reduce Heat Islands 2 Points Requirement: Use ENERGY STAR compliant (highly reflective) AND high emissivity roofing (emissivity of at least 0.9 when tested in accordance with ASTM 408) for a minimum of 75% of the roof surface; OR, install a green (vegetated) roof for at least 50% of the roof area. Combinations of high albedo and vegetated roof can be used providing they collectively cover 75% of the rood area.
Water Efficiency Credit 1.1 & 1.2 – Water efficient landscaping reduce potable water usage 2 Points Intent: Limit or eliminate the use of potable water, or other natural surface or subsurface water resources available on or near the project site, for landscape irrigation.
Energy and Atmosphere Prerequisite 1 – Fundamental Commissioning of the Building Energy Systems Prerequisite 2 – Minimum Energy Performance Prerequisite 3 – Fundamental Refrigerant Management Credit 1 – Optimize Energy Performance Credit 4 – Ozone Depletion
Energy and Atmosphere Credit 1 – Optimize Energy Performance 3 Points Intent: Achieve increasing levels of energy performance above the baseline in the prerequisite standard to reduce environmental and economic impacts associated with excessive energy use. Note: There is a total possible of 10 points but the average green roof will only be able to obtain 3 points
Energy and Atmosphere Credit 4 – Ozone Depletion 1 Point Intent: Reduce ozone depletion and support early compliance with the Montreal Protocol while minimizing direct contributions to global warming.

Energy Performance • Reference: Jeff Sonne, FSEC • ASHRAE Journal Feb 2006. • Sustainability section: Evaluating Green Roof Energy Performance.. There is 18.3% less heat loss with the green roof compared to the conventional roof and as the conventional roof ages (turns from a silver to black color), the difference will be greater and there will be more cost savings.
Stormwater Academy: Green Roofs CONCLUSIONS • Green roofs can be constructed and operated in a central Florida environment. • Green roofs with a cistern can be used as a stormwater treatment method. • 3. The average discharge coefficient is about 0.5 for rainfall of 1 inch. The effective impervious area is about ½ of the roof area. • 4. There are many other benefits such as reduction in • heat islands, carbon dioxide, noise, and very real • psychological benefits.
Stormwater Academy: Green Roofs More CONCLUSIONS • In terms of pollution and volume control, vegetated roofs are better than non vegetative ones. • ET rates are higher in “summer periods” relative to “winter periods” thus irrigation rates can be reduced during winter time periods. • Black and Gold Nuggets™ are very effective for water quality improvement. • LEED certification points can be attained with green roofs.
