Our project is a new university campus building that is served by a central campus heating plant. The plant is comprised of biomass fueled boilers providing steam. However, the campus is considering a switch to fossil fuel as an alternative to biomass. Our question is two-fold: 1) We would like to confirm that it is appropriate to use the USGBC Combined Heat & Power (CHP) Reference Guide as a guidance document for the central heating plant, despite the fact that we are not generating electricity at the plant. 2) We would like to confirm that biomass feedstock used in a campus district heating facility would be considered free energy under EAc1.
