NC-2009 EAp2:Minimum Energy Performanceposted by Elena Grau on
Hello, I’m currently working on a LEED NCv2009 project located in Spain. My question is about the compliance of the section 10.4.1 (Electric Motors) of ASHRAE 90.1-2007.
Light Scheduling
NC-2009 EAp2:Minimum Energy Performanceposted by Jean Marais on
1) Assume the same scheduling is used in both design and baseline case, may I schedule lights to be off during occupied hours in a zone (both baseline and design models)? 2) Taking this a step furt
