Priority Green EXPEDITED incentives set high but achievable thresholds for energy efficiency, water conservation and waste reduction. Priority Green projects demonstrate the ability to go beyond minimum code and typical construction practices. As codes and standard practices evolve, so too must the Priority Green thresholds. Eligibility requirements have been adjusted to align with the 2009 Seattle Energy Code, to keep pace with capabilities in the design and construction industry and to encourage greater resource efficiency. No changes have been made to Priority Green FACILITATED requirements.
