[bldg-sim] Utility Rates and eQUEST

I am a new user of eQUEST and am trying to model a building for LEED
energy savings purposes. I am comparing my design building to the ASHRAE
90.1 Code requirements of the same building. 

 

When setting up my electricity rates I can use Block Charges and
Ratchets. If I was able to find an average rate per kWh, how much would
this impact my energy reports? I am concerned that trying to get too
complicated by using multiple types of rates could actually hurt my
model more than help it.

 

Any thoughts would be appreciated
