We are looking to pursue this credit on a project, both to participate in the pilot process, but more importantly, as a means to select energy efficient medical equipment. How does one establish the full range of energy consumption for a particular type of medical equipment, in order to select ones in the 25th percentile? Thank You

Our approach is to mimic the Energy Star threshold. Our project has largely selected medical equipment so we are working with the equipment consultant to identify equal competitors. Then we'll chart all of them and see which one is going to be in the upper percentile. The hard part is what the equipment consultant considers to be an equal. There may not be a large statistical pool.
