Dear all,

Good afternoon.

I am working with a convention center that is currently Silver certified under the v2009 EBOM rating system. 

I will assume most are aware that Portfolio Manager has suspended applications for Energy Star Certification from September 2018 until early 2019.  As a requirement for EAc1 to be earned,

If a 6,000,000 square foot hotel/casino is more than 50% hotel space, are they required to use Option 1 - Portfolio Manager to get an Energy Star rating?

Energy Star Portfolio Manager requires that power produced and used on site be included when submitting for an Energy Star rating.

I have a church that runs extended house 9am-10pm 6.5 days a week has classrooms that are not heavily occupied. In classifying it the occupancy looks more like an office with extended hours.

The LEED O&M reference guide states that two points are available under EA Credit #1 for projects that follow Case 2 Option 2A however the LEED online template does not award credits under this

Given our unique project conditions we are pursuing this credit via Case 2, Option 2B.

We are working on projects for LEED EBO&M and have some doubts related to the credits EApre1& EAc1.
