may not match exactly what you’re seeing, but here’s the result I’m seeing after a trial simulation:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">74.6 kBtu/SF/Yr is the” Site” EUI: this is what’s consumed at your project. Site EUI is the metric I’m used to discussing with architects and building owners
who are interested, and is what the 2030 challenge targets are defined around. <o:p>
</o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">“Source” EUI (117.3 kBtu/SF/Yr here) accounts for losses in the production/transmission of energy… i.e. how many Btu’s of coal were burned to produce the energy
delivered at your project. A “fuzzier” metric to be sure, but I suppose of more interest to those pushing reform of our energy grid.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">In eQuest, you can review the default values for the site-to-source efficiency ratio, and adjust accordingly under your electric and fuel meters in detailed
mode.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">That said, a quick google to check on Energystar suggests your source EUI is well below the average (169) for K-12 schools:
<a href="http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?fuseaction=buildingcontest.eui">http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?fuseaction=buildingcontest.eui</a>. If you were to plug in values for the project into EnergyStar’s target finder tool, as we typically would for
LEED EAp2 documentation, you could produce a more site-specific EUI average value to cite, if you’re interested.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">I’d maintain my original hunch that this result checks out within the range of normal expectations. Also, here’s a corrected link to the 2030 challenge PDF
