PEORIA — Trey Solorio, project manager at Peoria Metro Construction, was awarded LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification.

Solorio, a 2007 graduate of Bradley University with a Bachelor of Science degree in construction engineering, recently completed the rigorous LEED program and passed the certification examination.

LEED is an internationally recognized green building certification system, providing third-party verification that a building or community was designed and built using strategies aimed at improving performance across all the metrics that matter most: energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved indoor environmental quality, and stewardship of resources and sensitivity to their impacts.

In the United States and in a number of other countries around the world, LEED certification is the recognized standard for measuring building sustainability. Achieving LEED certification is the best way for you to demonstrate that your building project is truly “green.”

Since its inception in 1998, LEED has grown to encompass more than 14,000 projects in the United States and 30 countries covering 1.062 billion square feet of development area. Peoria Metro Construction Inc., a Finch company, provides building and design expertise for commercial, industrial and institutional construction.

Solorio, a resident of Peoria, graduated from DePue High School in 2003. He is the son of Frank and Lynn Solorio of DePue.
