Hi everyone,
we have an Core & Shell-Office Building.
We are wondering how we have to calculate the process energy. According to Reference Guide Page 273 Tenant Spaces are modelled with the values from the Table G-B. If we do so we get 20% process energy cost.
Or do we have to use the 25% of the baseline building performance?
thank you very much in advance

Do not use the 25% default value. If you are at 20% then simply explain why you are under 25% by including a narrative and/or data regarding your assumptions for process energy.
