LEED v5 is Here: What Building Owners Need to Know
The U.S. Green Building Council has officially launched LEED v5. Building on the rating system’s 25-year legacy, LEED v5 is the most comprehensive update to the certification system in over a decade. Registration is now open for the new rating systems in:
Building Design and Construction (BD+C)
Interior Design and Construction (ID+C)
Operations and Maintenance (O+M)
For building owners already pursuing LEED v4 or v4.1 certification, USGBC will sunset registration for those systems on June 30th, 2026.
