Colleagues,
I am interested in hearing your thoughts on how to treat the process
loads for a power plant that is seeking LEED certification. The facility
is comparatively small but contains a number of gas turbines as well as
administrative offices. If I include the entire service area as a
process load then I suspect the building will get zero savings as the
electricity generated for the service area is going to be millions of
times greater than the facility's energy use. However, ignoring that
process load does not seem fair because the administrative offices will
be heated with waste heat off the turbines.
Best,

David BRADLEY
