Option 1. Prescriptive Path
Option 1. Prescriptive Path rewards improved efficiency for regulated loads under Path 1 and for plug and process loads under Path 2, with points weighted for each path based on the typical distribution of regulated versus plug and process loads in buildings. Combined points for Paths 1 and 2 cannot exceed 10 for LEED BD+C: New Construction, or seven for LEED BD+C: Core and Shell.
