The guideline 36 sequence reduced annual site energy by :math:`30\%`
The guideline 36 sequence reduced annual site HVAC energy use by :math:`30\%`
compared to the baseline implementation, by comparable thermal comfort.
Such savings are significant, and have been achieved by software only
that can relatively easy be deployed to buildings.
