<p class=MsoNormal>Hi, All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Now I am doing a district cooling & heating model for
LEED CS project.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Cause the central plants use water source heat pump for
heating I am confusing when select system type.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>According to Appendix G of 90.1 system 8 should be used for Baseline
model since the energy source for heating is electricity.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>However the proposed model will use hot water generated by
heat pump for heating.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>When I doing option1 of <Treatment of District or
Campus Thermal Energy in LEED v2>, how to model DES cost-neural?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>According to Energy Model Implementation all the energy
source should be modeled as purchased energy. Then the key question is the
baseline case system 8 will be resistant heating.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Any one has some experiences on doing district heating/cooling
system?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Should I jump to option2 since the plant side with ice
storage and water source heat pump will contribute more in energy cost saving?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Regards<o:p></o:p></p>
