What is the point range for LEED Silver level?

• A. 40-49 points.
• B. 60-79 points.
• C. 80+ points.
• D. 50-59 points.

Answer: (D)

LEED levels are determined by the total points earned across multiple credit categories. Silver sits in the mid-range of points: 50 through 59 points. That means a project must accumulate at least 50 points but fewer than 60 to be labeled LEED Silver. The higher tiers follow: Gold starts at 60 points and goes up, Platinum at 80 and above. Points come from a mix of strategies across energy, water, materials, indoor environmental quality, site sustainability, and innovation, so Silver recognizes solid performance across these areas without reaching the higher thresholds.
