Reduce design energy cost compared to the energy cost budget for energy systems regulated by ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-1999 as demonstrated by a whole building simulation using the Energy Cost Budget Method described in Section 11 of the Standard. (Use UNC steam and chilled water rates and a combination of UNC and Duke Power electric rates.) To determine the Design Energy Cost, first perform a daylighting analysis of the design building early in schematic design using Radiance, Adeline, or another daylight-modeling tool. Use the daylighting results to create a design building energy simulation model using DOE2, TRANE Trace, or another hourly load and energy-modeling tool. Daylighting controls cannot be approximated by turning off the lighting in the model for a portion of the day. The proposed design model must simulate performance of the daylighting control in response to daylight availability.
