Hi,

In scenarios where both gas and electricity are used as a heating source
for the proposed system—for example, in the case of water loop heat pumps,
which might be served by a gas-fired boiler, or a specific building with
gas-fired dedicated outdoor air systems (DOAS) and all electric terminal
units for heating—both electric and gas are counted toward the area served
by the respective fuel type. Proposed building designs with systems like
these are considered “hybrid” systems and map to the *fossil-fuel baseline*.

Hope this helps!!
