Exemplary Performance points are awarded for projects that greatly exceed which of the following?

• A. Meeting minimum requirements
• B. Double performance requirements
• C. All prerequisites
• D. Only energy-related credits

Answer: (B)

Exemplary Performance points reward going well beyond the standard requirements. The idea is that a project doesn’t just meet the minimum; it achieves a level of performance that is significantly higher, typically at least twice the required threshold for a given credit. This demonstrates leadership and extraordinary performance beyond what is normally expected. These points can apply across multiple credits, not just energy-related ones, and the exact thresholds vary by credit and version.

So, the best match is the idea of doubling the performance requirements, which is why selecting “double performance requirements” is correct.
