The lighting power intensities to be used for various types of premises in
the Baseline Building model shall be the threshold compliance values as
stipulated in the Building Energy Code (BEC 2012) applicable to the types
of premises. For those types of premises that the Building Energy Code
(BEC 2012) does not cover, the values in Table 8.3 should be used.
The equipment power density shall be modelled as designed. The
equipment power reduction in Assessed Building model must be
documented by an exceptional calculation method: the applicants must
provide justification for assumptions used in both the Baseline Building
model and the Assessed Building model, supported by following:
• Side-by-side comparison of local industry standard equipment and
new proposed equipment, with energy efficiency metric for each piece
of equipment (e.g., kWh/ pound of material processed);
• List of modifications that make new equipment more efficient;
• Operation schedules for facility and equipment.
