1 Energy Efficiency Project Development via C PACE John DiModica CEM, LEED O+M June 27, 2013

2 Energy Service Companies (ESCOs) Provide Turnkey project development, Design, Finance management, Project implementation (construction management), and Measurement & Verification (M&V) of Savings

3 Efficiency Solutions Reduce Total Payments EE Project Finance turns Utility Payments into Capital for Projects Project Structure: Lower total payments; Utility Savings > Costs Financial, Technical and Project goals set by Customer; managed by ESCO Focus on the total life cycle cost of asset ownership. Improves asset reliability, performance & occupant experience over multi year term. Developed/Financed via C PACE, EE project costs are paid by beneficiaries of energy savings by pass through of tax payments

4 Slide Title Source: Clean Energy Finance and Investment Authority (CEFIA)

5 Project Identification / Pre Development

6 ASHRAE Level II Energy Audit / Investment Grade Audit (IGA) ESCO Services include: Determine Specific Savings associated with measures Determine Specific Costs of installation of project measures(via sub bids/quotes from trade subs) Utility Incentives Pre qualification ECM Costs are Net of Utility Incentives Final Determination of Costs & Savings (Interactive) Selection of Proposed Measures (Final Package)

7 Slide Title Managing the CEFIA approval process Project Registration in CEFIA s web based Data Management Platform (CDMP) Project Registration (basic information) and Input of Technical Information on ECM by ECM basis ECMs evaluated on savings impacts, life expectancy, savings degradation & financing term Tool assists in determination of Project Bundle Savings to Investment Ratio (SIR) > 1 Project Approval

8 Slide Title Documentation Management CDMP Project Documentation Input by ESCO C PACE uses CEFIA s Data Management Platform (CDMP) which provides a uniform data entry and management tool to facilitate project management across a large number of projects; also supports transparency of project information.
