had this comment from a reviewer – the ASHRAE 90.1 handbook explains this
(it was page G-21 in the ASHRAE 90.1-2004 Handbook, but I don’t have the
2007 handbook to tell you that page number).  For a semi-heated space, the
baseline building models only the heating portion of the system.  For an
unconditioned space, the baseline has no system modeled (any energy use is a
penalty in the proposed model).  Conditioned spaces must be modeled based
on the systems designed and the baseline system per Table G3.1.1B; however,
where a heating or cooling system is not designed the proposed model must use
the same system as the baseline respectively (heating or cooling).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
