A new building has no utility history. What is required to determine whether a project can earn Sustainable Sites Credit, Site Selection,Onsite Renewable Energy?

A: An energy simulation of the base project
B: Information from USGBC’s LEED Registered Project Tools
C: The estimated energy costs using LEED Energy Modeling Protocol (EMP)
D: Anticipation of achieving Energy and Atmosphere Credit, Measurement and Verification

参考答案: A

本题解释:
See Sustainable Sites Credit, Site Selection, Onsite Renewable Energy, Calculations

Because the building has no utility history a baseline needs to be established to determine what percent of the building\'s energy usage will come from onsite renewable energy.

Otherwise the calculations come from the CBECS database or existing utility data if 12-months of data exist.

Onsite Renewable Energy is independent of Energy and Atmosphere Credit, Measurement and Verification. These credits can be earned separately or together.
