There is some guidance here -
http://www1.eere.energy.gov/femp/pdfs/mv_guidelines.pdf This is the latest
(v3.0) of the FEMP M&V Guidelines.
We have used Chapter 25 of the prior version (2.2) of this document as
simulation calibration guidance. It is attached.

Subject: [Bldg-sim] LEED Measurement & Verification Credits
Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone has had experience with the LEED M&V credit,
specifically on New Construction? I looked back on old discussions about
this and basically it came down to reading over the IPMVP Volume 3 Option D.
However, I feel the language in the document is vague and wondered if any of
you out there have successfully completed the credit for LEED and what the
process is to “calibrate an energy model”.
Are we talking about ensuring that the control system on the project can
generate data on the follow:
· Weather Data
· Schedules
o Occupancy
o Equipment
o Lighting
o Temperatures
· Equipment operating curves
· Utility bill rates
Other than the information above, I’m having a hard time understanding what
else you can modify on an energy model to try to reflect what is actually
happening post occupancy. (at least from an eQuest standpoint).
Any suggestions? Thanks!
