[Equest-users] ASHRAE Baseline EUI

I am not aware of similar baseline studies for the residential sector. 
We have been historically using the RECS published data. See attached
document for EUI information. 
More info at: 
http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/recs/recs2005/c&e/detailed_tables2005c&e.htm

Another useful resource, though I understand this has been suggested by
others in the past too, is the

Sirs:  May I ask if you know of any equivalent Baseline EUI guidance for
residential buildings?

 

Thanks,

Paul,

 

The NREL Commercial Benchmark Models get updated regularly. I would
direct you to the following website for the latest: 
http://www1.eere.energy.gov/buildings/commercial_initiative/new_construc
tion.html

You can also keep track of the changes to past models from this website.

 

Unless this has been updated again, I am attaching the latest EUI table
that I have on file for your reference.

 

 

Regards,

You might try looking at NREL's DOE Commercial Building Benchmark Models
at www.nrel.gov/docs/fy08osti/43291.pdf.

I was actually looking to compare to the ENERGY STAR target finder, the
numbers they generate are based on the CBECS, which Vikram and Bob also
mentioned.  These, however, are existing buildings though and I guess
I'm more concerned with new construction and a ASHRAE Baseline model
performance, which I've seen in the 60 kbtu/ft2 range.  Does ASHRAE
publish anything relative to maybe an average building EUI?

All,

 

I have developed a baseline building and calculated its energy use index
(EUI), total source building btu use divided by building square footage,
and I am curious to compare it to other models.  Obviously since many
users on this list are from very different climate zones, we will get
some varying answers.  However, I would still be interested to see what
kind of use different buildings are characterized by, especially in
Michigan.  Or, if any of you know a resource that I can use to reference
this type of information, I'd be grateful.

 

Thanks!
