-
Implement Additional Efficiency Requirements credits calculated per ASHRAE 90.1- 2022, Section 11, from the list of eligible measures referenced below. Where ASHRAE 90.1-2022, Section 11, references the prescriptive requirements of ASHRAE 90.1-2022, Sections 5–10, such as lighting power density or equipment efficiency, replace those references with the matching prescriptive values in ASHRAE 90.1-2019 .
o Central systems . Earn 1 point for every 13 energy credits where the LEED BD+C:
Core and Shell project includes a central HVAC system or service water heating system that includes chillers, boilers, service water heating equipment, or loop pumping systems with heat rejection.
o All others . Earn 1 point for every nine energy credits for all other LEED BD+C: Core
and Shell projects.
