Normalizaiton

Thanks David, As per your method of normalization now i want to clarify some points: (1) Through this method i have calculated total baseline year MBTU ( 28,418,797) consumption and total product output in baseline year is 90,000 jeans so the ratio is 28,418,797/90,000 = 315 MBTU/jean Is it ok or not ? (2) Now as total output in performance period is 120,000 jeans due to increase in number of machines so by normalizing i will take baseline ratio of MBTU / Jeans that is 315 and multiply it with 120,000 (315x120,000) to find total consumption of baseline year. is it ok or not ? (3) Does MBTU/Jean mean MBTU/Unit ? (4) For comparison will i first calculate the average of all three baseline years then compare it with performance year in energystar portfolio manager ? (5) Water consumption entries will be included in energystar portfolio manager or not ?

Thanks Daivd, But still point number "2" confusing me: (1) Kindly can you give me a example with rough calculation regarding point number "2": How The 'total annual energy consumption / total annual units produced' must be compared against the baseline because the baseline power consumption is lower then performance year due to increase in number of machines ? (2) Yes baseline will be of three years but as per leed reference guide we will calculate average of these three years then compare it with performance year. (3) there is also confusion on leedonline form which make addition of all three baseline years value and compare the result to the performance year instead of calculating average and then comparing average to performance year. why addition of all three years because through this results shows large saving ?

Year--Annual Cons--Units/yr--Energy/Unit--Normalization--Final Value 2015--500,0000-------70,000---71------------ 71 x 70,000--- 5,000,000 2014--450,0000-------60,000---75------------ 75 x 70,000--- 5,250,000 2013--370,0000------ 50,000---74------------ 74 x 70,000--- 5,180,000 2012--341,0000-------35,000---97------------ 97 x 70,000--- 6,790,000 Average = ( 5,250,000 + 5,180,000 + 6,790,000 ) / 3 = 5,740,000 Kbtu /Ton Performance period is 2015 % savig = ((5,740,000 - 5,000,000 ) / 5,740,000 ) x 100 = 12.89 % Production goes increases yearly and in performance year it is 70,000 units and energy consumption is higher as compare to baseline years due to increase in production. So for baseline i have calculated actual per unit energy consumption and then multiply it with 70,000 ( performance year production ) to normalize the energy consumption according to increase in production for all of three years then by calculating average value i compare it with performance year value to find saving. Kindly review at earliest and if its incorrect then please explain the same example, how we can take or normalize baseline values b/c of actual energy consumption of baseline years are lower then performance year.

David nice to see this but i think both of these calculations are same because the entries in energy star portfolio manager and leedonline is in the form of energy consumption mean we cant enter energy per unit value in that. So for that is it write: In performance period production is 70,000 units: 2012, 3,410,000, 35,000, 97 energy per unit, 97 x 70,000 = 6,790,000 2013, 3,700,000, 50,000, 74 energy per unit, 74 x 70,000 = 5,180,000 2014, 4,500,000, 60,000, 75 energy per unit, 75 x 70,000 = 5,250,000 Average: ( 5,250,000 + 5,180,000 + 6,790,000 ) / 3 = 5,740,000 PERFORMANCE 2015, 5,000,000, 70,000, 71 energy per unit (5,740,000 - 5,000,000) / 5,740,000 = 12.89 % = 13 % If both of these calculation are same then i can easily enter values as required in leedonline (GJ/sm)

It's good and please send me at muzammal.sidework@gmail.com
