I am modelling a design with cogen for electricity, absorption
cooling, space heat, domestic hot water. I have read through the
"CHP Calculation Methodology for LEED-NC v2.2 EA Credit 1" paper and
I am not sure how to model the Baseline case for EA Credit 1. It
sounds like the Baseline case does get the same CHP system: "The
Baseline Building heating and cooling plant utilizes the backup
energy source(s) of the Design, or electricity if no backup source is
present or specified." for Case 1 as is with my Design case. I think
that the cooling in the Baseline case would not make use of excess
heat (absorption cooling). Would the Baseline make use of excess heat for DHW?
