In previous columns, I've examined several credit categories within LEED. One credit category that has not been discussed in-depth is Energy and Atmosphere.The energy section of the LEED 2009 rating system has more prerequisites and voluntary credits than any other single credit category. This section of the rating system is heavily weighted, but, surprisingly, it is not discussed as frequently as other credit categories.This is because the prerequisites and credits in this category are complicated, so they can be difficult to understand.
