LEED and REAP Construction Projects

LEED Projects

The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System encourages and accelerates global adoption of sustainable green building and development practices through the creation and implementation of universally understood and accepted tools and performance criteria. LEED is a third-party certification program and an internationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings. It provides building owners and operators the tools they need to have an immediate and measurable impact on their buildings’ performance.

REAP Projects

The UBC Residential Environmental Assessment Program (REAP) is intended to provide a framework to encourage and measure sustainable building practices for market-based and staff/faculty/student residential developments at UBC. The objective of establishing such a framework is to bring about the construction of multi-family residential projects at UBC which are of a higher quality than those built using the “standard practices” within the BC Lower Mainland. REAP is based on the LEED™ green building rating system, and is in keeping with the University’s sustainability policies. All developers will be required to participate in REAP and incorporate the mandatory design requirements within their building program. The degree to which developers participate in the optional sustainability or green initiatives will be voluntary and rewarded with Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum ratings.
