Step-by-Step Guidance: at the end of Step 2, add the following sentence: "Note: Step 2 is not applicable to Core and Shell Projects."

Further Explanation > Rating System Variations > Core and Shell:
After the sentence that reads "The number of meters required for tenant spaces depends on building configuration; a minimum of one meter per energy source per floor is required." Insert the following additional sentence: "All energy sources utilized by a tenant must have advanced metering, including electricity, natural gas, chilled water, and heating hot water (service hot water may be excluded)."

At the end of the Core and Shell section in Further Explanation > Rating System Variations, insert the following additional guidance:
"Examples for Core and Shell projects:

Example 1:

Base Building
Base building includes condenser water system (electric cooling towers and pumping system) and heating hot water systems (boilers).
Energy sources required to be metered with advanced metering characteristics: electricity and natural gas (boilers).

Tenant Spaces
Tenant spaces served by water source heat pump systems using base building condenser water with radiant baseboard heating (hot water supplied by base building).
Energy sources required to be metered with advanced metering characteristics: electricity, and heating hot water (at least one per floor).

Example 2:
Base Building
Base building includes chilled water system (electric chillers, cooling towers, and pumping system) and heating hot water systems (boilers).
Energy sources required to be metered with advanced metering characteristics: electricity and natural gas (boilers).

Tenant Spaces
Tenant spaces served by four-pipe fan coil units.
Energy sources required to be metered with advanced metering characteristics: electricity, chilled water, and heating hot water (at least one per floor)."
