FAQs about EAp2 :

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?

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

NC-v4 EAp2:Minimum energy performance

How to model multiple buildings served by a common chiller plant?

There are multiple blocks undergoing the LEEDv4 campus certification on a site. 3 separate buildings in that campus are served by the common chiller plant located within the campus but as a separate building. Are we supposed to model the district cooling and heating in both design and baseline case or the actual HVAC system in design and baseline as per the AppG. 

Also do we need to consider the district cooling and heating consumption for the savings percentage or can we calculate the savings without the district cooling and heating consumption.
