[Bldg-sim] Central Plant serving multiple buildings - Title 24

[Yuvaraj Saravanan]

Hi,

I have a project were we have three buildings. (2) of which are new
buildings and (1) is an existing building. We are designing a new
central plant which will serve all three buildings. The central plant
has air-cooled chiller with ice storage. These buildings will go for (3)
separate permits for California T-24 and same is the case for LEED.

 

I am wondering how do I model this in energy pro for Title-24 as well as
for LEED.

 

As you know, LEED allows to use either T-24 or ASHRAE 90.1 as baseline.
But there is a separate document from LEED which explains how to model
systems when we have central plant serving multiple buildings (district
cooling). But these are specific to ASHRAE 90.1. Not based on T-24 as
baseline.

 

Could you please let me know how to model the central plant in energy
pro so that I can use the same model for both T-24 as well as for LEED.

 

Thanks,

Yuvaraj
