Green Power is listed throughout the credit as the total electricity consumption of the building, yet the credit (EAc6) is performing the calculation from table 2-10 in the Energy Model from EAp2, Total Energy Use on a project, which takes into account propane, natural gas and other fuels. Is there a way to have it be based only on the electrical consumption as it reads in the text?
We have already bought the green power based on the electricity consumption, therefore our number is low, any thoughts?
Thanks!

Hi Kerrie, you posted this a few years ago. Do you remember what was the verdict? Was only the annual electrical consumption accepted?
We are in a similar situation in one of our projects, where we have electrical energy and purchased chilled water. I am not sure if we should include the purchased chilled water as well.

For LEED 2009 this is based only on the electricity for the project.
