Hi guys!
We're working on a project that includes a greenhouse that makes up about 45% of the project's area. We found guidance on LI-5223/LI-5364, about how to treat the greenhouse as a process load and document savings using an ECM, however, these were published for v2.2 and v2009 of LEED. Does anyone know if we can use them for a v4/v4.1 project?
Thanks!

I think the general guidance about treating it as a process load still holds. Not sure about the portions of these interpretations that approve a baseline for determining savings. I think there may be some guidance in them for you to follow but the proposed baselines were based on older versions of 90.1 so you will need to come up with an appropriate baseline yourself if you wish to claim savings.
