Jackson,

I overlooked this section because for some reason I thought it does not apply to parking garages, but after reading it again it seems it could be used for the controls in section 9.4.1. Appreciate the help that answered my question.

For what its worth, the ESMFHRSG I linked to previously also has guidance on appropriate lighting power reductions to represent occ sensors, etc. However, as pointed out previously, that guide is written for multifamily projects so the guidance probably isn’t appropriate for office.

I tied LEED user, but the only thing I was able to find is a different approach to meet the occupancy sensors. Although these controls are applied the same for the proposed cased and proposed model, I think we cannot use the 24/7 parking garage schedules any more, so I am looking for an approach to model these controls

If it is ventilation, you will most likely have to show a hand calculation depicting the fan run time hours with an exceptional calculation if you are going for energy savings.
