C406.2 Additional energy efficiency credit measures. Each energy efficiency credit measure used to meet credit requirements for the project shall include efficiency that is greater than the energy efficiency required for the building type and configuration requirements in Sections C402 through C405. Measures installed in the project that meet the requirements in Sections C406.2.1 through C406.2.14 shall achieve the credits listed for the measure and occupancy group in Table C406.2(1) or Table C406.2(2) or where calculations required by Sections C406.2.1 through C406.2.14 create or modify the table credits, the credits achieved shall be based upon the section calculations. Projects that chose to comply with the fossil fuel pathway in Section C401.3 shall use Table C406.2(2) to achieve credits. For mixed fuel space heating systems, the number of space heating energy efficiency credits available for measures with a prorating flag "Heat" are calculated using the following equation: C SH = CHP SH x B/C + CFF SH x (1 – B/C) Where: C SH = Blended credits for mixed fuel systems. CHP SH = Credits available in Table C406.2(1). CFF SH = Credits available in Table C406.2(2). B = Installed space heating capacity in kBTU/h of space heating appliances that comply with any of the exceptions to Section C403.1.4. C = Total installed space heating capacity in kBTU/h of all space heating appliances. Where: C SH = Blended credits for mixed fuel systems. CHP SH = Credits available in Table C406.2(1). CFF SH = Credits available in Table C406.2(2). B = Installed space heating capacity in kBTU/h of space heating appliances that comply with any of the exceptions to Section C403.1.4. C = Total installed space heating capacity in kBTU/h of all space heating appliances. For mixed fuel service water heating systems, the number of service water heating energy efficiency credits available for measures with a prorating flag "SWH" are calculated using the following equation: C WH = CHP WH × B/C + CFF WH × (1 – B/C) Where: C WH = Blended credits for mixed fuel systems. CHP WH = Credits available in Table C406.2(1). CFF WH = Credits available in Table C406.2(2). B = Installed service water heating capacity in kBTU/h of service water heating appliances that comply with any of the exceptions to Section C404.2.1. C = Total installed service water heating capacity in kBTU/h of all service water heating appliances. Where: C WH = Blended credits for mixed fuel systems. CHP WH = Credits available in Table C406.2(1). CFF WH = Credits available in Table C406.2(2). B = Installed service water heating capacity in kBTU/h of service water heating appliances that comply with any of the exceptions to Section C404.2.1. C = Total installed service water heating capacity in kBTU/h of all service water heating appliances.
