CS-2009 EAc5.1:Measurement and Verification—Base Building

M&V

i am participating in a CS project, the building is a comercial office building all the office space will be for tenants. We are planning to apply for the credit EAc5.2, but we have a doubt, it is possbile that during the 1 year post- occupancy period, the building will not be 100% in operation, so the implementation of the M&V Plan, could not be posible in this period, but the owner wants to have all the metering points. To comply with this credit we can develop the Plan, and wait until the 100% occupancy of the building?

We will have all the meters, but maybe the building will be not 100% occupied, so we could wait utill the 100% of occupancy, that's right?

No you earn the credit based on your plan, not its final implementation. So you do not have to wait for 100% occupancy.
