[Equest-users] Cogeneration Confusion

[Michael Hsueh]

Hi Andrea,

Technically the cogeneration shouldn't reduce your electricity consumption
-- the only thing is that the source of the electricity is different. The
differential is accounted for in the ES-E report of the SIM file.

Hope this helps,
