<p class=MsoNormal>Not to complicate the subject. One additional question in
this subject.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'>This project is in California. Another
USGBC guideline states that Title 24 – 2005 is equivalent to ASHRAE
90.1-2004. LEED V3 also allows to use a Title 24 as baseline. So, if I want to
use Title – 24 as my baseline for the LEED purpose (to avoid additional
modeling) how do I do that? USGBC guideline for DES “Required
Treatment of District Thermal Energy in LEED-NC version 2.2 and LEED for
Schools” primarily talks about ASHRAE 90.1 in the step 2 when changing
systems. Any suggestion is greatly appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>I gave a presentation on this
subject in November and the v3 equivalent document was “coming any day
now” back then – I haven’t seen it yet, although I’m
pretty sure someone is working very hard on generating one. I
haven’t looked for it since then either. If not, you can probably
use the current Reference Guide along with the 2.2 DES document.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

adjustments for EAP2, etc. I would assume this includes substitution of
the current energy codes for the prior ones when referring to your registered

the comparisons are structured, or changes in the default DES efficiencies.<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>
