Kresge Announces New Higher Green Building Standards for Challenge-grant Applicants in Higher Education
Beginning in June 2010, Kresge will only award capital challenge grants to colleges and universities building environmentally sustainable facilities.
The LEED Green Building Rating System offers tools and performance criteria that are intended to speed the adoption of sustainable green building and development practices. As a third-party certification program, LEED provides architects, engineers, construction managers, lenders, government officials, and grantmakers with a nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of high-performance facilities.
