A building has fan-assisted ventilation and no mechanical cooling system. Does this qualify as natural ventilation?

What options are available to mechanically ventilated projects outside the U.S. to meet this prerequisite?

NC-v4 EQp1:Minimum indoor air quality performance

Extent of European ACP application

I am not quite sure on the wording regarding natural ventilation and the Europe ACP. The online Ref.Guide states "Projects in Europe may use Arbeitsstaettenrichtlinie ASR 5 as a local equivalent to ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2010, natural ventilation procedure." The requirements regarding natural ventilation call (besides others) to meet the requirements of ASHRAE 62.1 section 4 or a local equivalent. As the ASR 5 is a replacement for section 6.4 in ASHRAE 62.1, does this mean it is replacing section 4 as well?

Jens - Did you see Regional ACP ID #100002185 - https://www.usgbc.org/leedaddenda/100002185 - that was released in the July 2017 Addenda? It revises the Europe ACP. This ACP is noted in the July 2017 summary of Essential LIs, Addenda, and Rating System Updates - http://www.leeduser.com/strategy/essential-leed-interpretations-addenda-and-rating-system-updates.
