Designed for architects, builders and building managers, the BeGreen
Business LEED calculator may be used with all four primary LEED
certification types: new construction and major renovation, existing
buildings, commercial interiors and core and shell construction (which
includes base building elements such as structure, envelope and
heating, ventilation and cooling systems). The tool allows businesses
to calculate the number of RECs required to meet the Green Power LEED
certification standard, based on actual or estimated energy usage.
Users are provided with a summary of the energy usage and a cost
estimate for purchasing the RECs.

Businesses can easily calculate the estimated amount of RECs needed for
LEED certification credit by entering basic information such as the
building's square footage, the type of LEED certification desired, the
building's principal activity and the number of years to be covered by
the REC purchase. The calculator totals the amount per year, increasing
the amount of RECs over the course of the contract to account for
inefficiencies that may come as the building ages. With each purchase,
businesses immediately receive a certificate of purchase and a power
content label verifying that the RECs meet the Green Power LEED
certification standard via e-mail.
