LUE01 - Planted area, what does this subsection of BREEAM certification require?
Let's explore in detail the LUE01 - Planted area subsection, within the Land Use and Ecology section for obtaining BREEAM certification: from the criteria of the subsection to the support of our digital platform to meet the requirements.
What are the characteristics of the LUE01 - Planted area subsection?
LUE01 - Planted area is the first of the 5 subsections that make up the environmental category Land Use and Ecology. This subsection is associated with up to a maximum of 4 credits and is part of the Asset performance evaluation. LUE01 - Planted area identifies already existing planted areas and assesses their potential to support biodiversity. The objective of this subsection is to quantify and encourage the creation of planted areas within the asset under analysis, in order to support the ecology of the site and the health and well-being of the occupants through greater proximity to green spaces. The question of this subsection is “What percentage of the asset's surface has been planted?”. Depending on the resulting percentage, credits can be obtained ranging from 0 to a maximum of 4.
What are the evaluation criteria for the LUE01 - Planted area subsection?
The evaluation criteria (assessment criteria) for the LUE01 - Planted area section are as follows:
How XNatura supports in obtaining a good score
Thanks to our monitoring platform, we can fully respond to the LUE01 - Planted area subsection. Indeed, our remote analysis allows us to quickly and automatically identify the type of land use (Land Use) of a specific site through the classification of land use and cover according to the European CORINE Land Cover system.
