The Hawaiʻi Tokai International College campus features new LEED Gold Certified Buildings that are spacious and fitted with photo-voltaic solar panels. The LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) certification judges building development and addresses sustainability issues through a points assessment.
“A building may receive one of four LEED rating levels: Certified, Silver, Gold and Platinum. LEED-certified buildings are resource efficient. They use less water and energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As an added bonus, they save money.” — US Green Building Council Hawaiʻi http://www.usgbchawaii.org/
