<p class=MsoNormal>Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am wondering how do I model this in energy pro for
Title-24 as well as for LEED.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
