EUI energy targets in Standard 100-2015 were derived from the 2003 CBECS and 2005 RECS databases, supplemented by energy modeling as necessary, for 53 building types in 16 U.S. climate zones. An analysis of CBECS data to investigate the impact of operating schedule by building type enabled development of “shift multipliers” that could be used to adjust building energy use intensities in commercial buildings. This presentation provides details on the development of the standard's energy target tables and shift multipliers, along with options for updating the tables based on the new CBECS database scheduled for publication in 2016.
