We are working on a higher ed. project building connected to a campus-wide district heating/cooling and power plant.
Baseline Virtual Energy Rate
NC-2009 EAc1:Optimize energy performanceposted by Nick Morgan on
I am in the process of submitting the LEED templates (2009 NC) for EAp2/EAc1. The building in question has been modeled using Energy Pro and has calculated a baseline virtual energy rate for natur
"DES Energy Cost" Thread Follow-Up
NC-2009 EAc1:Optimize energy performanceposted by Joseph Chappell on
In a previous post titled "DES Energy Cost" dating back to May 13, 2013, my interpretation of the responses in the thread is that a project can choose to either follow 90.1 or the DES Guidance from
How to model chiller for only one wing of an existing building
NC-2009 EAc1:Optimize energy performanceposted by Allison McSherry on
I am currently working on a LEED v3.0 model in trace 700. It is a historic building originally built in the late 1800s. It has a variety of unique situations that I am unsure of how to model.
Plenum Zones
NC-2009 EAc1:Optimize energy performanceposted by Rosana Correa on
Hello, In the proposed design, the HVAC system operates using plenum zones as return air path. Should I use the plenums as return air path in the baseline model as well? Thank you

EAc1 weather data
NC-2009 EAc1:Optimize energy performanceposted by Francesco Passerini on
Hello everybody! For the climate data I wonder whether the utilization of the software Meteonorm, or of similar software, could be a valid solution for LEED.
100% OA System vs baseline systems
NC-2009 EAc1:Optimize energy performanceposted by William Holub on
I'm working on a model for a system designed for a small classroom building and have concerns on the proper baseline and proposed system ventilation rates.
ASHRAE 90-1 and swimming pools
NC-2009 EAc1:Optimize energy performanceposted by Stéphane Paris on
Hi all, I am currently working on a large project including an aquatic center. We plan to use geothermal energy to cover around 90% of the heat required for pool heating.
