No. LEED and SPiRiT (Sustainable Project Rating Tool) requirements are similar. The ENERGY STAR standard for reflectivity (0.65) is recognized by LEED. However, LEED also has an emissivity requirement (0.90). ENERGY STAR currently has no requirement for emissivity. Title 24 is legislation specific to the state of California. California requires non-residential buildings to meet a pre-defined energy budget. Buildings can get credit in meeting that budget by having roofing products that meet 0.70 reflectivity and 0.75 emissivity.
