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?

CI-v4 EAc2:Optimize energy performance

Estimate points of Table 2.- Percentage improvement in greenhouse gas emissions

Hello,

I'm working in a ID+C:(CI) for a office's building. This project registration was after Martch 1,2024 so is subject to the v4 2024 Update and I'm wondering how to calculate the Table 2. Points for percentage improvement in greenhouse gas emissions beyond ASHRAE 90.1-2010 Appendix G.

Thanks and best,

So you are asking how do you calculate greenhouse gas emissions? Assuming so here is the guidance from LEED v4.1 which requires this calculation. US projects:
o use U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) regional grid mix coefficients to calculate GHG emissions by energy source; or
o use hourly emissions profiles from U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) AVoided Emissions and geneRation Tool (AVERT)
