Q

How do renewable energy help in achieving RE-R1?

A

Renewable energy may be subtracted from the proposed building energy consumption including where the energy produced is exported to the electrical grid.

Q

True or False: RE-R3 refers only to the the refrigeration system contained within the site boundary.

A

True. District cooling systems which will provide only chilled water to the site are not subject to the requirement of RE-R3.

Q

Considerations to implement passive design measures?

A

Building orientation, fixed shading devices, improvements to building fabric, air tightness

17
Q

What are passive design measures to achieve RE-2?

A

Cooling methods which require no mechanical systems.

18
Q

Defined as the sum of solar gain, external conduction gain and infiltration gain.

A

External heat gain

19
Q

The ratio of the total area of glazing on a façade to the total façade area.

A

Glazing Ratio

20
Q

How are roof areas covered by external shading devices calculated?

A

As portion of roof area in shade measured at 12 pm solar time on the summer solstice.

21
Q

In what instance do RE-3 awarded automatically?

A

When building contains no roof (excluding areas with mechanical plant, vegetated roof and with renewable technologies).

22
Q

A document that is needed to achieve RE-3 requirements.

A

Proof of certification by Energy Star program, EU Energy Efficiency Labeling Scheme or equivalent.

23
Q

What are the equipment considered in RE-4?

A

Stairs, Lifts, Escalators/Travelators

24
Q

What is the CRI value required for lighting used within the stairs?

A

CRI 80

25
Q

For over 3-storey buildings, what must be include aside from idle/downtime features and LED lighting and LCD display features?

A

Regenerative Drive System

26
Q

How is the peak and annual average electrical load (MW) determined?

A

From modeling results of the dynamic simulation undertaken as part of RE-R1.

27
Q

To achieve 1 credit point for RE-6 what is required of the Offsite Systems?

A

Direct purchase of RECs which will provide a minimum of 20% renewable energy for a minimum 2 years under a contract.

28
Q

What is the required GWP for refrigerants to achieve 1 credit point under RE-7?

A

GWP</= 10

29
Q

What are the possible condition where RE-7credit points are awarded automatically?

A
  1. Total collective mass of refrigerant within the project = 5kg; 2. Only individual units with <5 kg refrigerants used; 3. DC systems complies the requirements of Refrigerants, Refrigerant Leak Detection, and Refrigerant Pump Down; 4. No gaseous fire suppressions systems are used in the project.
30
Q

What are the areas of RE-7 which should be addressed to earn possible points?

A

Refrigerants, Refrigerant Leak Detection, Refrigerant Pump Down, Fire Suppressions System

31
Q

Under RE-7, which credit section must be used in order to verify Refrigerant Leak Detection and Refrigerant Pump Down operation?

A
