Michael - yes, you've got it. Teams using the offline calculator are intended to eliminate parking area from the benchmarking and EUI generation. I'm not familiar with the CAGBC version of the rating system, but that's the requirement the USGBC version, as I understand it.

We also have a project that is using the Case 2 Calculator. I understand we aren't supposed to include parking in the offline calculator, but do we include the energy for site lighting? Most of our site lighting is separately metered, should we exclude that consumption from Portfolio Manager? Thanks!
