Include key HVAC efficiency targets in the Owners Project Requirements (OPR) document for commissioning (see EAp1 and EAc2), with input from the mechanical engineer and other design team members. Use metrics such as number of points to be achieved, HVAC efficiency levels, or HVAC percentage improvement over a baseline. Having those targets in the OPR will help the team develop a design strategy to meet goals for energy efficiency.
