Green Buildings

SFU subscribes to two green building certification systems: Leadership in Energy Efficiency and Design (LEED) and the Building Owners and Managers Association’s Building Environmental Standards (BOMA BESt).

In 2014, SFU’s Surrey Podium 2 project achieved LEED CI Silver for Commercial Interiors. A number of other buildings, across all SFU campuses, have adopted green building practices in their design and renewal, including Shrum Chemistry (right), which is targeting LEED Gold certification.
