Are steam process loads such as cage washing and glass cleaning included in these calculations and do they need to be monitored and included in the EUI values?
How about domestic hot water? There is a separate steam to hot water heat exchanger for DHW and this end use is not currently monitored.

Yes. Where are you getting your steam? If it's from a gas fired boiler on-site, then your monthly gas invoices will cover it. Likewise if you're using No. 2 fuel. If you've got a central distributed steam system where the steam is produced in a different building, then you need to meter it.
