A building has a design case energy use of 500,000 kWh/yr. What minimum purchase from a Green-e certified wind supplier would be needed to earn a project 5 points?
A: 700,000 kWh
B: 250,000 kWh
C: 500,000 kWh
D: 1,000,000 kWh

参考答案: C

本题解释:
Notes:

Energy and Atmosphere Credit, Green Power requires 50% green power for a two year contract to earn 5 points for option 1.

500,000 kWh/yr X 50% X 2 years = 500,000 kWh to purchase

If the answer choices had specified kWh / yr then 500,000 kWh/yr X 50% would be correct, but they only specified kWh.
