I'm not entirely sure what the LEED online form/template means in regards to calculations for flexible lighting control system. The form says to "provide a lighting schedule and calculations demonstrating at least 50% of the lighting load of the project floor area is served by flexible lighting controls." LPD calcs? Calculation of surface area in a separate spreadsheet? The reference guide does not indicate calculations as required documentation, though I know generally a LEED template/form supercedes reference guide for documentation. We can provide calcuations for LPD or surface area (or both?) but I don't want to submit this info willy nilly if it's not necessary. Any thoughts on what is specifically met? We don't have an electrical engineer for the project and our lighting designer wasn't overly sure either. Thanks!

Hi Alara,
I have the same issue on few other projects. Could you please share info how did you cope with documentation? What calculation you had to show and did you get that credit? Any advice would be much appreciated!
Regards,

Hi Izabela,
We didn't end up attempting that option. We achieved the credit with having accessible floor/ceiling, a take back program, and reusable/recyclable materials. We were fortunate to have a few extra options. I never did figure it out, sorry!
