FAQs about EAp2 :

Do the required savings for this prerequisite (and credit) need to come only from building energy, or also process loads?

Our project doesn't have enough energy savings to earn the prerequisite. Can we get there by incorporating onsite renewables?

Our proposed design has insulation R-values that are below those prescribed by ASHRAE 90.1-2010. Can we still meet the prerequisite?

NC-v4 EAp2:Minimum energy performance

Title 24 Equivalency?

Has USGBC issued any equivalency for Title 24 (vs ASHRAE 90.1) in LEEDv4 EA credits yet? I've seen comments saying it can take a while. Just wondering if it is on the horizon for LEEDv4 or not?

I have not seen anything issued yet. CA Energy Commission did a study comparing Title 24-2013 to 90.1-2010 and it appears to be more stringent. The average savings was about 11% but the range depending upon the building type was 0% to 19%.
