<TITLE>RE: [BLDG-SIM] DOE 2.1E validation</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Neither does the California Energy Commission say that for THEIR energy "air shows". But yet Title 24 was BUILT on DOE-2. The "approved" commercial Title 24 compliance software program has a DOE-2 engine. But I don't believe there is anything explicitly state within the CEC literature.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>The ASHRAE Fundamentals books always speaks to programs within the text. But I do not believe ASHRAE can actually indorse a particular product. They have to allow "Captain's discretion".</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Can anyone help me in providing any information regarding ASHRAE approving DOE 2.1 as an energy simulation tool?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I know this might sound strange, even many years after the predictor shootout and knowing that 90.1 uses DOE 2 for most of the energy simulation, but is it written in blood anywhere.</FONT></P>
