I may have helped you, now its your turn to help us all. The USGBC is seeking input and information related to the modeling of naturally ventilated and naturally conditioned buildings.

Greetings, In the IEQp1 calculation form, provided by USGBC for using in LEED v4, in the Occupancy Category pull-down menu, there is nothing related to equipment rooms, non-occupied stores and sim

For chillers in EnergyPlus I have to provide the data “Minimum Unloading Ratio”.

We are building an addition to an existing building that has a central plant that is outside of our LEED boundary. However, we also have a contract to improve the performance of the central plant.

I am modeling a new building(Laboratory/office) on a university campus following LEED v4 Option 1, Whole Building Energy Simulation. New Building is 3 story and 69,500 sq.ft .

Is there any new guidance or published changes for modeling district energy loops in LEED v4?

Thank you USGBC for Energy Performance Calculator. I remember the days before...where you had to make your own more or less whilst fumbling through projects.

Hi Markus, Thanks for your reply. I've been trying to undestand the explanation of 90.1-2013 User's Manual, page G-35.

We are designing a research and development facility for an equipment manufacturer and trying to pursue LEED certification for the facility.

My question is regarding the EAp2 and EAc3, our project consists of a palm oil manufacturing facility.
