FAQs about EAp2 :

Are there any exceptions to the daylight control requirement of ASHRAE 90.1–2010?

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

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?

Does the base building information need to be included in the minimum energy performance calculator, or is it sufficient to just include the tenant space?

CI-v4 EAp2:Minimum energy performance

Energy Star

I know that it has been asked if previously purchased equipment is exempt from this credit but I'm curious if it can be counted if the relocated equipment is compliant?

I am not sure how this works but I would think that you should either count only the new equipment only or count all of the equipment. It certainly does not sound fair to be able to pick and choose, adding that which benefits you and not include that which does not.

Yes, I'm wanting to count all of it - new and existing. The tenant is relocating so much equipment so it seems the right way to handle it. Thoughts?

I think that is the right way to go. The credit language does not specify "new" and has changed a bit from 2009 leading me to think the intent was to include all equipment to be installed.
