LEED with EBTRON!

Implementing automated control strategies that utilize equipment can contribute towards the successful attainment of 5 of the Prerequisites in Energy and Atmosphere (EA) and Indoor Environmental Quality (EQ), plus impact up to 14 optional credits in these two categories, accounting for a potential total of up to 39 rating points. This is significant for those who in the past have struggled to achieve the minimum 40 points required beyond the prerequisites for certification, or to obtain that one additional point needed to achieve the next higher certification level.
