Campus Buildings - Should I model all buildings in one simulation?

I'm going to be working on a campus-wide HVAC upgrade project (30 buildings). The goal is to simulate multiple HVAC system types and determine which is most efficient option(s). A lot of central or multi-building systems are used so I'm thinking of trying to model everything in one simulation. Can OpenStudio (E+) handle this and is it advisable?
