Option 2. ASHRAE 90.1-2022

Comply with ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1-2022 . Use any applicable compliance path in ASHRAE 90.1, Section 4.2.

For projects applying the Normative Appendix G, Performance Rating Method compliance path, one of the following metrics may be used in place of cost:

• Future source energy

o Replace all references to cost with future source energy. Use an electric site-to

source energy conversion factor of 2.0 based on future projections for the U.S. A lower national average value may be used as applicable for projects outside of the U.S.

o Replace ASHRAE 90.1-2022, Table 4.2.1.1, Building Performance Factors (BPFs) ,

with the BPFs derived for the future source energy metric in Table 2.

• Site energy or source energy documented using ASHRAE 90.1-2022, Informative Appendix I.
