Certification Aims to Bolster Parking Garage Sustainability

9/4/2014

The Green Parking Council has launched the Green Garage certification program. The program is the parking industry equivalent of the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) certification and recognizes high standards in sustainable parking facility design, technology, operations, and management. Green Garage Certification is a consensus-driven program developed over several years and honed by external reviewers and a beta phase that included more than 40 facilities in the United States and Canada.
