What is the maximum number of points a project can earn for Regional Priority credits?

2 points
4 points
6 points
8 points

The correct answer is: 4 points

A project can earn a maximum of 4 points for Regional Priority credits in the LEED rating system. Regional Priority credits are designed to address specific environmental issues relevant to a particular geographic area. By allowing projects to earn points for these credits, LEED encourages sustainable practices that align with local priorities and conditions. Each project can select up to 4 Regional Priority credits from the available options that best reflect the environmental needs of the project's location. Thus, achieving these credits contributes to the overall point total needed for LEED certification, while also reinforcing the importance of context-specific sustainability strategies in building design and construction.
