<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>This is addressed directly in
the LEED Reference Guide for Green Building Design and Construction, 2009
Edition. Starting on page 267 they go through various central plant
scenarios and how they should be treated. For a district CHP, they
reference the same “Required Treatment of District Thermal Energy, May
2008” that you mention below. I don’t see it clearly addressed,
but it seems that you should replace any reference to 90.1-2004 to 90.1-2007
for a LEED 2009 project if that’s what you used to develop the baseline.
Might be worth a CIR though? Good luck.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'>I am trying to do energy model
for 3 buildings in a campus. Each building is seeking separate LEED
certification. We have a new central plant with Ice storage which will serve
all three buildings. I have a USGBC guideline “Required Treatment
of District Thermal Energy<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'>in LEED-NC version 2.2 and LEED
for Schools” dated May 28, 2008, which discusses about how to carry out
the energy modeling. I am wondering is there a similar document for LEED
version 3. If there is no such document released by USGBC for version 3, then
if I follow the aforementioned document, the problem I have is, it reference
everything back to ASHRAE 90.1-2004 but LEED V3 follows 90.1-2007. Can anyone
guide me how to approach this situation?<o:p></o:p></p>
