Hello,
An office building project has a small space dedicated to a Datacenter (under 20% of GFA). It was designed to be Tier 3 certified with all the requirements that that entails. (Redundant UPS units,...)
1) Do we need to model Datacenter equipment under Unregulated Loads?
2) How would we justify an energy reduction in that specific equipment using Exception Calculation Method ?
Thank you

1. Yes
2. There is a spreadsheet for data centers that defines the baseline and can help you to determine the savings. https://www.usgbc.org/resources/minimum-energy-performance-data-center-c...
