by Shane Henson — September 23, 2013—As part of its efforts to promote and offer information on green buildings within Canada and beyond and in honor of World Green Building Week September 16-20, the Canada Green Building Council (CaGBC) has launched an online LEED Project Profiles database.
This comprehensive tool showcases more than 4000 LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Canada projects currently registered and certified in Canada, including project case studies and high resolution photos. It also offers a team list and summary of each certified project and its features. Canada currently sits in second place in terms of completed LEED certifications, after the United States, says the CaGBC.
“Profiling these projects demonstrates to the international community the depth of green building expertise, products and technologies in the Canadian marketplace,” says Thomas Mueller, president and CEO of the CaGBC.
