We are working on an 32.980 m2 (354.862 sqf) core an shell office project in Frankfurt, Germany. We plan 20% green areas (roof and external areas) in relation to the site area and therefore comply to SS Credit 5.1. Case 2. Can you please inform us on the headline in SS Credit 5.1. Case 2. It states ' this case is not available to projects outside the US'. We assume that refers to the text below and the option to donate offsite land?

Hi Tobias I agree with you that it is a bit fuzzy in this text: http://www.usgbc.org/ShowFile.aspx?DocumentID=8870 But case 2 is definately a case you can use. It's whats in the full version of the Reference Guide. I use it in Sweden! However it is not an ACP. There is no ACP for SSc5.1 that I can see. You can see at the top of this page which credits have ACP's. Good luck!

Hi Tobias, Maria is correct. The box does refer to the text below, and that case is absolutely available to projects outside the U.S. Good luck with your project!
