<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>USGBC
has developed the Advanced Energy Modeling for LEED, Technical Manual to guide
the project teams and LEED reviewers on requirements and documentation for
Whole Building Energy Simulation to Optimize Energy Performance of the
building. The objective is to provide further information on EA Credit 1,
streamline the LEED documentation process, and provide a greater degree of
consistency for both LEED applications and reviewer comments. This manual
should be considered a guiding document on EA Credit 1 requirements. The
intended users of this manual are both LEED reviewers and applicants with
intermediate or advanced understanding of energy modeling, referenced
standards, and energy codes. This edition is primarily applicable to LEED for
New Construction & Major Renovations v2.2,LEED Core & Shell v2.0 and
LEED for Schools and can be adapted to apply to LEED Building Design and
Construction 2009. The Manual includes chapters containing overview of
references standards, key simulation outputs, submittal and documentation
checklist, summary of applicable CIRs, verification of proposed savings,
simulation input-output consistency, sample exceptional calculation
methodologies accepted by USGBC including natural ventilation and many others.
