Revision history [back]

I use these:

DOE Commercial Reference Buildings

  • New construction
  • Existing buildings constructed in or after 1980 ("post-1980")
  • Existing buildings constructed before 1980 ("pre-1980")

DOE Commercial Prototype Buildings

  • 90.1-2004
  • 90.1-2007
  • 90.1-2010
  • 90.1-2013

I typically use these:the EUI and end use breakdown as a starting point for tuning baseline and proposed models.
