Hi all,

I've been working on a LEED project in California for months and our energy modeler wants to use the LI 10480 Title 24 2019 pipeline to demonstrate compliance under LEEDv4. Only problem is, I've never done it that way before, and our modeler and I are consistently speaking in different languages. Anyone done a project under this pathway before and willing to help me collapse my ignorance? I think I only need like 30 minutes to get sorted on what I'm supposed to upload where so that it makes sense to USGBC.

Thanks in advance to whoever helps save me, much appreciated, will send thank you cookies upon request.

Hey there, While I have not yet personally gotten to this submission point, I have collected links to the related instructions. See if these are of help (hopefully these links work; if not, I also put the names of the post so you can search for them):

U.S. Green Building Council Announces LEED v4 and CALGreen Alignment for California Projects
This appears to be older, but I asked in the comments if there were updates a while back, and Wes confirmed the guidance is the same.

This also has other links within the posting.

Hope that helps.

Hi Aley-
If you don't end up with a California SDL expert, happy to share my recent experience with this, we've successfully completed design phase submission on a split review. For context our project was v4 ID+C-CI (major renovation to an existing building), on a higher-ed campus CUP, fully registered for the CALGreen ACP and had an outside energy modeling consultant.
