Hi All,
According to the LEED NC v2.2 user manual, the default process energy cost
is 25% of the total energy cost for the baseline building.
Example:
The total energy cost for a baseline building is T = (X + Process loads)
Let's assume that X = $1000.00 = 75% * T
To find the energy cost for a baseline building, we solve for T
Therefore T = $ 1000.00 / 75% = $ 1333.33
and the Process loads' cost = 25 % * $ 1333.33 = $ 333.33
This is how I understand the 25% process load calculation.
Can someone please confirm this approach?
Thank you,
Anis
