The design team is encouraged to earn innovation credits and should consult the LEED Innovation and Pilot Credit Catalogs to identify the most viable strategies. Give preference to those credits that can be achieved through design with minimal owner or operations engagement/impact. Examples of innovation credits that have been awarded in the past or are currently under consideration include:
- Green cleaning
- School as a teaching tool
- Mercury-free lamps
- Thermal comfort surveys
- Exemplary transit access
