Definitely, for buildings with multiple meters, there should be a separate model for each meter. It is important to use different parameters for gas and electricity, as you read in the CalTRACK compliance document.

Hello,

What do you recommend when a building has gas and electric meters?  I read on https://github.com/openeemeter/eemeter/blob/fc91df2b5fa69125a85b1235d24783c350d5b99a/docs/caltrack_compliance.rst:
 
For natural gas meter use data, the function :any:`eemeter.fit_caltrack_usage_per_day_model` must set fit_cdd=False and cooling_balance_points=None so that models using cooling degree days are not considered.
 
3.4.3.1: :any:`eemeter.fit_caltrack_usage_per_day_model` must set fit_cdd=True, fit_intercept_only=True, fit_cdd_only=True, fit_hdd_only=True, fit_cdd_hdd=True for electricity data, and fit_cdd=False, fit_intercept_only=True, fit_cdd_only=False, fit_hdd_only=True, fit_cdd_hdd=False for gas data.

So do you recommend building separate models for gas and electric with the parameters changed?
