Hallo,

The credit language for Multifamily projects requires to complete the "ENERGY STAR multifamily midrise worksheet" for interior lighting. Does anyone happen to know how to download this worksheet...?

By the way, I think there is an error in both the credit library and in LEEDUser because this credit cannot be found in the web version of the "LEED for BD+C: Midrise Multifamily" rating system whereas the Reference Guide clearly states:

Case 2. Multifamily
Option 1. Indoor Lighting (1.5 points)
Install high-efficacy lighting and/or lighting controls that achieve a reduction from the ENERGY STAR baseline. Complete the ENERGY STAR multifamily midrise worksheet for interior lighting.

Gustavo, EA credit Lighting only applies to single family homes and lowrise multifamily. This credit does not apply to midrise multifamily. The ENERGY STAR multifamily midrise worksheet for interior lighting is posted in the credit library under the Resources section of the Lighting credit here: https://www.usgbc.org/resources/energy-star-mfhr-performance-path-calculator. Even though the calculator includes the word "midrise" in the title, this credit does not apply to LEED for Homes multifamily midrise projects. Therefore, this credit is correctly listed under the Homes rating system and applies to only single family and multifamily lowrise projects. Carissa
