<p class="MsoNormal">I looked at your model and nothing jumps out as far as obvious problems. I can’t tell if you’ve modeled anything incorrectly without reviewing the design (which I’m not volunteering to do).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My question back to you is – what is it about the proposed design that should save energy compared to the baseline?<o:p></o:p></p>
