[Bldg-sim] LEED 2.2 for manufacturing facility

[Marcus Sheffer]

It gets problematic for these types of facilities, not on the energy side but in meeting the LEED MPRs.  These types of facilities can demonstrate energy savings.

 

Minimum program requirement #5 says that a LEED project has to have at least 1 FTE occupant.

So does that mean that a building that uses lots of energy to house computers or equipment that needs cooling but DOES NOT have any real occupants (other than those who may go there on occasion to check on the equipment, say less than once a day) can still go for LEED certification?

What energy load then would be used for the LEED energy model since none of the energy load is for occupant comfort? Lighting only?

Thanks,
Debra Lombard, LEED AP, EMIT, EIT
