1 Campus DES for the Triple Bottom Line Fred James National Business Manager, Higher Education APPA Nashville July 11-14, 2016

2 Campus DES for the Triple Bottom Line? Distributed Energy Systems (DES) Triple Bottom Line (TBL)

3 TBL Economic drivers for DES Energy Markets Electricity rates are expected to continue to escalate Natural gas prices will remain historically favorable Markets offering reward for on-peak, capacity and DR DES Performance Cogeneration offers maximum cycle efficiency for electric and thermal production Battery storage continues to improve Solar, storage and backup gen are responsive to market call for on-peak, capacity, DR and resiliency DES Costs Solar and battery costs continue to decline Federal and State/Local incentive programs Variety of low-cost financing options

4 TBL Environmental drivers for DES Higher Education has taken a leadership role in recognizing the need to be environmentally responsible and is setting an example for others. o Over 600 HE institutions have made a commitment to Second Nature s Climate Leadership program (formerly ACUPCC). DES is a critical component for progress toward carbon neutrality includes options for low to CO2-free energy - as well as resiliency! * Siemens plan for cutting worldwide CO2 emissions in half.

5 TBL Social drivers for DES Students Living Labs Research Awareness Faculty Sustainability Education Expanded Curriculum SOCIAL Institution Reputation Ranking Recruiting

6 Siemens is also committed to a TBL approach Siemens is resolved to act responsibly on behalf of future generations to ensure economic, environmental and societal progress. Joe Kaeser, CEO Siemens intends to become the first major industrial corporation to achieve a neutral balance of CO 2 emissions by Siemens path to long-term CO2 neutrality REDUCE PRODUCE (DES) [$120M] PROCURE

7 We are aligned and committed to the benefits of Distributed Energy Systems 2014 Siemens acquires Rolls Royce aero-gas turbine business 2014 Siemens acquires Dresser-Rand (includes Guascor engines) Siemens Leading DES Portfolio Automation & Microgrids Power Gen Gas Turbines (+CHP) Energy Storage Power Gen Industrial (+CHP) Equipment, Controls, Turnkey Implementation & Service Toward achieving our Customers (and our own!) Economic, Environ, and Social Goals June $11Bl merger announcement Wind PV electrical equipment

8 DES can be a transition toward full campus potential Living Labs, Research Academic Programs Communications, Legacy Sustainability Programs Behavioral / Culture Change Student / Staff Engagement DES, Cogeneration Renewable Energy Systems Storage, EV, Microgrid Achieve full campus potential across Economic, Social & Environmental Objectives Infrastructure Improvements Central Plant, Fuel Conversions Replace HVAC, Cooling Towers Energy Conservation Measures BAS, Fire & Security Systems Strategic Planning Lowest hanging fruit ; Operational needs; Initial GHG targets Transactional Transformational
