CS-2009 EAc5.2:Measurement and Verification—Tenant Submetering

Corrective Actions and Sub-metering

For the submetering, we can just provide the box that allow the tenant to install the meter, right? Also, we have to declare in plan that once the tenant install the meters, facility manager (or owner) can use this data for analyze the saving as a whole, right? Tenant does not have to do any analysis. If the tenant space only have lighting and appliance endues. Does it mean that the corrective action in the plan for EA5.2 alone would deal with re-adjusting the documentation of scheduling or checking the LPD? HVAC part are not in the tenant scope so there is not much of corrective actions to be declare in the plan.

The CS owner typically provides the infrastructure that will allow the tenants to install the metering necessary for them to earn EAc3 in LEED CI. This involves more than just a box. The base systems have to have the capacity to handle the metering. There are different options in CI as well so it depends on if you have any tenants with will possibly occupy more than 75% of the building. If you don't know the system has to be able to handle both possible scenarios. I don' think you have to declare anything about how the tenant uses the data. See the examples in the credit language relative to corrective action. This is not limited to the tenant scope of work. This is about the base building systems or the infrastructure in the base building which allows the corrective action to occur.
