[Equest-users] eQuest $$ Reports and LEED

I am unsure how you could determine whether Electric Demand was
attributable to the lights, equipment, space cooling, etc for every
given hour. That seems too microscopic. I would suggest taking the
average cost for each month (so you you would catch the Summer-Winter
aspect), then subdividing your electric usage by this monthly (average
cost).
 
You could also call out hourly bins for each month to determine electric
usage ON/MID/OFF peak times and the costs associated with each bin. You
could also call out the individual electric use by category during that
time and determine what each category is using for that bin.
 
But does the USGBC REALLY require such Herculean data massaging?

Karen...thanks for the response...ES-D and ES-E are still overall costs
and do not break the costs out into sub-categories (lights, task lights,
space cooling, etc.) like BEPS and BEPU do...do you know of any reports
that do a sub-categorized cost break-out?

I know that the BEPS and BEPU .sim file reports will give me consumption
data, but is there a standardized report, or even a way to create a
customized report that will make eQuest output a simulation into a
format similar to Tables 5 or 6 in the EAc1 section of LEED-NC, with
respect to cost values?  This particular project I am having issues with
is using an On-Peak/Off-Peak rate structure, so I cannot simply multiply
the consumption data by a fixed utility rate.  Am I missing a report
that already exists with this information?  Thanks for the help.
