Cold Storage Energy Modelling

June 28, 2018

I am working on a cold storage project going for LEED certification , I am not able to understand the modelling procedure for the refrigerated spaces in eQuest.

The project has a built up of 1,35,000 sq. ft. out of which 89,913 sq. ft. incorporates refrigerated areas. I googled all the guidelines for cold storage energy modelling and followed the one by IACSC. The guideline was helpful but I was not able to understand the modelling of systems for the refrigerated areas.

Any suggestions on how shall I proceed ?

Thanks

I have a bungalow unit (single Storey hous) with 3 bedrooms. And each bedroom opens to a Zen Garden of Native plants using a Sliding Glass Door. My question is, are they going to consider the Glass Door as windows, since it is made of Glass?

The project is situated in southeast asia and there is no Acca certified contractor. Does it mean we will not get the credit? But we have PCab (certification for contractors) will they accept?

RP Credit Lookup: Invalid Location in the City

RP Credit Lookup: Invalid Location in the City

January 30, 2018

Hi. My team is currently working on certifying a LEED v4 ID+C:Retail project and wishes to pursue the regional priority credits to gain additional points. We have indicated the geo location of the project on LEED online. However, when we go over the Regional Priority Credit Look Up (project location is in Fort Baonifacio, Taguig, Philippines), the location is invalid and no regional priority credit is available. Although when we try to locate it outside the cities or central business districts, mainly provincial areas of the Philippines - e.g. Calabarzon, regional priority credits comes up such as - Enhanced Commissioning, Optimize Energy Peformance, Low Emitting Materials, Enhanced Indoor Air Qualities, Indoor Air quality Assessment and BPDO - material ingredients.

Why is it that RP credits are only available in provincial areas and not in cities where getting RP credits is more critical? Can our project still gain points for RP category? Our team believe that RP credits are allocated per country, any location in that country have the same RP credit, like in LEED 2009.

Here's the project's additional information: 
Project Name: UnionBank - Mckinley West Branch
Project ID: 1000103160 - LEED v4 ID+C: Retail

Hoping for your usual support. 

Thanks! 
Marj
