FAQs about EAp2 :

Do the required savings for this prerequisite (and credit) need to come only from building energy, or also process loads?

Our project doesn't have enough energy savings to earn the prerequisite. Can we get there by incorporating onsite renewables?

Our proposed design has insulation R-values that are below those prescribed by ASHRAE 90.1-2010. Can we still meet the prerequisite?

Data-Centers-NC-v4 EAp2:Minimum energy performance

Server Efficiency Supporting Documentation / Data Centers

Hi Everybody, We are using the Minimum Energy Performance Data Center Calculator, which indicates in several of its comments that documentation to support the efficiency of the proposed servers is needed. I'm assuming that technical data sheets of the servers may be included. Should a technical report describing how the virtualization percentage, utilization percentage, and consolidation ratio will be achieved, be necessary as well? In addition, should we include the IT equipment binding owner commitment letter (or an extract of it)? What would you suggest?

All of the back up documentation you mention would be helpful to the reviewer. In general provide the information requested and nothing more.

Is there any recomended format available for these documents?
