How will I estimate baseline energy use at each site?
Two options are available: a three-year average or a weather-adjusted single year’s usage.

What do I use for the base year electric usage if the site is new to me and has only been operable part of a year?
Make a reasonable estimate of baseline usage. Suggestions include using energy usage per square foot from other similar facilities or extrapolating usage based on a partial year’s usage and factoring in the appropriate cooling degree days for your area. Then amend your plan as better data becomes available. See the plan application for guidance.
