2 Safety Moment Call 811 before you dig It s the LAW and it s FREE! A service that will mark the location of underground utility lines. Use it to avoid fines for unlawful digging. It helps prevent serious injury or potential hazards from striking or damaging underground utility lines. Applies even if you only plan to use a shovel or hand tool.

3 Introduction Who am I? 30 Minute Agenda PSE Background Why Energy Efficiency? PSE Programs Questions at any time What you ll learn Why does PSE offer energy efficiency programs What programs are applicable to you 3

4 PSE Service Territory 4

5 Question #1 How much money does PSE spend on energy efficiency? Over $100 million per year! 5

6 Question #2 Why does PSE offer energy efficiency programs? Energy efficiency is cheaper than building a power plant 6

7 Why Energy Efficiency? Energy efficiency can also help with 7 Reducing Maintenance Improving the Learning Environment Educating Students Managing Budgets Employee Engagement

8 Where do you start? 8 Source: US EIA 2003 Commercial Building Energy Consumption Survey

9 Where Can PSE Help? Resource Conservation Management Strategic Resource Management 9 Commissioning Custom Grants Lighting New Construction Rebates Tools

10 Resource Conservation Management (RCM) 10

11 RCM Summary PSE provides incentives, training, and data services to large commercial customers Customers must use 5 million kwh or 675,000 therms of PSE energy No cost required Customers typically achieve 10 to 15 savings through: 11 Behavioral changes Occupant engagement Operational improvements Targeted facility maintenance Attention to utility accounting

12 RCM Incentives Incentives of around $118,000 over three years* Start-up Incentive = $10,000 in Year 1 Performance Incentive = $12,000 in Year 1, $20,000 in following years Performance Bonus Incentive = $10,000 in Year 1, $20,000 in following years Training Allowance = $2,000 *Based on 1 FTE customer that achieves typical performance 12

13 RCM Services PSE will also provide 13 Resource accounting software 15-minute interval data for viable meters Training opportunities Building audit support Savings analysis Electronic bill data

14 RCM Deliverables Customer Deliverables Complete and Implement a Resource Management Plan Complete Facility Action Plans or Matrix Complete Site Quarterly Checklists Host an Annual RCM Meeting 14

15 RCM Selling Points No Cost Required Save money (10 to 15 percent) If you have a $2 million budget, savings should be around $200,000 to $300,000 Incentives (around $118,000) Support Utility Accounting Software Energy Interval Service Training Walkthroughs Additional information: 15

16 Strategic Resource Management (SRM) SRM is an RCM-Light for mid-size electric customers (1,000,000 kwh to 5,000,000 kwh) McKinstry will provide consulting/training services to the customer 16 Assistance in the development of the RMP, FAPs Identification of energy saving opportunities Customer portfolio benchmarking Quarterly Meetings

17 SRM Cost PSE will pay for 70% of the cost and $0.02/kWh saved for the remaining 30% of the cost 17

18 SRM Additional Information PSE Provides 18 Electronic Bill Data 15-minute interval data Training Opportunities Savings Analysis

19 SRM Example School District with (2) 50,000 ft2 elementary schools (1) 70,000 f2 middle school (1) 130,000 ft2 high school Total Energy Usage: 3,000,000 kwh SRM Cost 19 PSE pays $10,640; Customer pays $4,560 3% savings = 90,000 kwh, $6,300 PSE provides additional $1,800 incentive Total Payback = ($4,560 - $1,800) / $6,300 = 0.43 years

20 SRM Selling Points Quick Payback Consultant Expertise Minimal Staff Time Support Utility Accounting Software Energy Interval Service Training Savings Analysis Additional information 20

21 Comprehensive Building Tune-Up (CBTU) PSE provides incentives of up to 100% to cover commissioning costs Building or group of buildings 50,000 ft2 and more than two years old Must use an approved provider Benefits 21 Energy audit Systems Manual 7 to 15% Energy Savings Average Payback: 0.6 years Whole building submetering incentive

22 CBTU What makes a good candidate? Building is older than three years Building is at least 75% occupied Building has had significant changes in use, or several different tenants, since it was constructed Building has a lot of comfort and other issues High night loads are not easy to explain No major (lighting, controls, or HVAC) upgrades anticipated 22

23 Lighting Incentives For our Commercial Customers 23
