Inquiry

The LEED Resource Guide 2.0 explains in the Calculations and the LEED Energy Modeling Protocol (p. 92-93 of the unformatted review draft) that on site renewable energy (photovoltaics in our case) is deducted from the Proposed Building Energy Cost. Is this "double-dipping"? Please verify that this is possible as we see no cross-referencing anywhere else in the guide for this strategy.
