FAQs about EAc5 :

How should we approach this credit for residential buildings where tenants are paying their own utilities?

Our project already includes a full direct digital control (DDC) system for HVAC. Does this satisfy the submetering requirements of this credit?

Is the gas consumption of stoves, ovens, etc. required under this point?

When should a project consider Option B instead of Option D?

Is there a requirement to model baseline energy use as being 25% process loads?

Does this credit specify how energy use should be measured?

What should the plan for corrective action contain?

How is this credit addressed in a multi residential complex (77 student apartments) where tenants pay their own energy bills?

Since the difficulty is gathering data from 77 distinct units I would probably think about developing a sampling protocol to apply and then extrapolate. If the result is not within the expectations then sample some more.
