A school project team doing a renovation of a historic school is using the performance rating
method for whole building energy simulation. The school will use photovoltaic panels, day
lighting, under floor air distribution system and other energy saving technologies. The school will
use an estimated 2,895 (103 Btu) annually vs. a baseline case of 4,763 (103 Btu). The team has
fallen short of its goal to earn an exemplary performance for Energy and Atmosphere Credit,
Optimize Energy Performance. What is the minimum amount of energy savings the team must
find in addition to the current model to earn the point?
A: 2,191 (103 Btu)
B: 323 (103 Btu)
C: 514 (103 Btu)
D: 2,381 (103 Btu)

参考答案: B

本题解释:
Notes:


To earn exemplary performance point for EA Credit 1 the project must reduce energy use by 46%.
This is because the project is stated to be a renovation.


A 46% reduction in energy use from the baseline case of 4,763 would be:


4,763 X .54 = 2,572 (103 Btu)


The team currently expects to use 2,895 (103 Btu) In order to meet the 46% requirement for
exemplary performance the team must reduce energy use an additional 323 (103 Btu).

2,895(103 Btu) - 2,572(103 Btu) = 323 (103 Btu)
