Option 2. Monitoring-based Commissioning
Meet the same requirements as BD+C: New Construction Option 2, plus:
For Core and Shell projects, the base building EIS must have expansion capability, to ensure all data identified in EAp4: Energy Metering and Reporting is accessible through the EIS. This includes metering requirements for future tenants.
Tenant requirements If the project anticipates future tenants will lease space that is greater than 10,000 sq. ft. (929 sq. m.), install submeters for compliance with EAp2: Minimum Energy Efficiency . The base building EIS must include a tenant portal, where tenants can access reports, including visual representations of the energy consumption. At minimum, tenants must have access to the base building data for shared systems that serve the tenant space, and the electricity energy use associated with their space.
