<p class="MsoNormal">Hello All, <br>
<br>
Is anybody aware of an output report in eQUEST that documents the building's
CO2 emissions? I haven't been able to locate any such report in the
program. If this is not available, can anybody point me in the right
direction as to how I can figure out the CO2 emissions?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
