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)
