Inquiry

For mixed-use low-rise projects, should the energy model include commercial spaces? If so, how?

Ruling

The energy model used for EA 1 in low-rise building should only include the residential and residential-associated spaces, as per the RESNET protocols. For any non-residential spaces, the project team must develop detailed green tenant fit-out guidelines (see relevant guidance from LEED for Homes on tenant fit-out guidelines).
