Climatic Design LLC has performed a whole-building energy model simulation, a comprehensive energy analysis, and an assessment of the building systems and configuration for the Calverton Elementary Middle School. With the execution of the recommended ECMs, the proposed design complied with the Minimum Energy Performance requirement and achieved additional LEED points. As exhibited in the LEED Scorecard, the project was 41.2% more energy cost efficient than the ASHRAE 90.1-2007 reference model. This equates to fifteen (15) LEED-NC 2009 EAc1 points.
