LEED Platinum for the sellersiebzehn project
We helped the modern office tower with roof terrace at Sellerstrasse 17 in Berlin become fit for the future and achieved two important certifications with the entire project team: Following the WiredScore Gold certificate, LEED Platinum certification has now also been achieved - the highest award under the international LEED standard.
What makes Platinum so special compared to Gold?
While LEED Gold stands for 60-79 points in the rating system, LEED Platinum requires at least 80 points - proof of outstanding environmental performance, innovative planning and a consistent focus on sustainability.
Three success factors have made the difference:
- Water efficiency: Holistic water management - from reducing consumption inside the building to supporting the natural water cycle outside.
- Energy consumption: Consistent reduction of energy consumption through efficient design and smart technical solutions.
Materials & resources: Use of emission-tested building products and responsible use of building materials - with regard to origin, processing, transportation and life cycle.
LEED Platinum is not a product of chance, but the result of teamwork - especially in close cooperation with the Berlin branch of the PORR Group Germany - experience and a clear sustainability claim.
