2 Project Summary Melville Holden has a reputation for being a quality company and not just a quality Holden dealer. Paul Davies, Dealer Principal, wanted to improve the quality of lighting across the whole car yard while simultaneously reducing the power costs and CO 2 emissions. Quality lighting is paramount throughout the showroom and also improves the safety conditions in the workshop areas. $200,000 $180,000 Net Benefit: $178,479 $160,000 $140,000 $120,000 $100,000 $80,000 $60,000 $40,000 Maintenance Savings $20,000 $ Year Net Energy Savings 1

3 Energy Reduction Total energy consumed has been reduced by more than 92,000 kwh per year, a saving of just over 56% on previous consumption. Summary of Savings 56% Net Financial Benefit Over 18 Years Over the estimated life of the solutions deployed and based on current electricity charges, this project will deliver around $178,000 in net financial benefit to the client. $178,000 Capital Cost to Client $ tones/year CO 2 Savings The project will deliver a reduction in CO 2 emissions of more than 1570 MT per year. That s equal to taking 332 cars off the road, or planting 40,703 trees every year. Net Cost Savings $1,000 /month $1,971 /per year Maintenance Cost Savings Total net cost savings after deducting Vista Energy s service fee is just over $1,000 per month. In addition to energy cost savings, the project will also deliver an estimated maintenance cost saving of around $1,971 per year. *Source of Calculations: equivalencies-calculator 2

4 Testimonial As the owner of a large car dealership, I am always interested in reducing operating costs. LED lighting seemed an obvious choice, however, my concerns about reliability and initial high cost were impediments to me moving forward with confidence. Fortunately, I came across Vista Energy and they offered to replace our lighting with new, state of the art LED technology at zero cost. I am delighted to say, the results speak for themselves; our dealership s lighting levels have improved greatly and our lighting bill has dropped by tens of thousands of dollars per year. In addition to this, our carbon footprint has been reduced by over 1,500 tonnes per year. All of this was achieved without any up front cost to our business, which is a huge benefit in tough economic times. I have no hesitation in recommending Vista Energy to every business.
