FAQs about EAc2 :

The energy cost offset from onsite renewable energy cannot be used to demonstrate compliance with the prerequisite. Can this cost offset still be credited to the proposed energy cost savings for this credit?

NC-v4 EAc2:Optimize energy performance

Process - Transport Refinery Energy

Hi, Is there any precedent for being able to exclude fuel refinery energy from an energy model. Usually refinery of diesel would be done offsite for a typical fleet facility (therefore no energy associated with refining or using of fuel) but in our case it is being done onsite using compressors which consume a lot of energy. Thanks Victoria

All energy use within the LEED project boundary must be accounted for. This is a process load that is modeled identically in both models. Several project types have high process loads, like manufacturers, and depending on what percentage of the energy use is associated with process they need to find some savings in the process.

Thanks Marcus, this is what I thought. We have some efficiencies in the process so I think we can justify some exceptional savings.
