NC-2009 EAc2: On-Site Renewable Energy
I am trying to figure out which cost to put in here. Another post said it was savings, although I can't find anything under the credit intent or resources for this specific item.

Can I pursue this credit if I am using one of the prescriptive compliance paths for EAp2/EAc1?
Can I really double-count onsite renewable energy in both EAc2 and EAc1?
Our PV system is being installed after the building is occupied. Is that okay?

The percent renewable is determined by dividing the renewable energy value by the total energy cost for the Proposed not including any renewables. The cost in both cases is determined by using the virtual rate from the energy model.
So if I have $5,000 in renewable energy cost avoidance and $15,000 of Proposed energy cost in my energy model then the renewable contribution is 33%
