3 Efficient Products for Business Lighting Measures

4 Efficient Products for Business HVAC Measures

5 Efficient Products for Business VFD Measures on Pumps and Fans

6 Efficient Products for Business Motors

7 Two facility use types 2017 Advanced Lighting controls Low lumen output fixtures/high fixture density (office, classroom) High lumen output fixtures/low fixture density (warehouse, manufacturing) LED with controls & data retrieval 2017 incentives Low lumen output fixtures/high fixture density (office, classroom) at $0.75/sq. ft. High lumen output fixtures/low fixture density (warehouse, manufacturing) at $0.30/sq. ft.

8 Process Efficiency Process Efficiency (formerly Custom) $0.07 per kwh saved Most projects are typically process related Can t find it on the Process Efficiency for Business Program menu $25K per measure threshold (above at 2 /kwh) Pre application required

9 Process Improvement All plant process and productivity improvements energy intensity (kwh/product unit) will be used to compare pre and post. Improvement in energy intensity will be considered for incentives even if there is only a slight increase in energy usage. Removal of bottle neck(s) in the production flow to improve productivity adding new equipment may improve the total plant productivity and energy intensity process upgrade in Water/Wastewater Treatment plants"

28 CEI Participant Comments CEI has given us metrics we have not had before. In the past all we had was our bills and now we have a model to predict our energy usage. The CEI program has been invaluable in helping identify opportunities and quantify energy savings results. This program has resulted in significant savings through the first year of application. By soliciting ideas from the plant employees, as well as listening to the free experts brought in by the CEI program we realized that many improvements could be made to further reduce energy without much capital investment. The CEI program enabled us to achieve some energy savings that we would not necessarily have achieved without it. It served as a driver to look deeper into ways to save. CEI provided us with the most comprehensive feedback we have been given regarding our readiness for ISO CEI is the perfect program to help us become ISO compliant. We definitely would not have recognized all the improvement opportunities without the CEI program. Another benefit to the CEI program was being able to share information with other industrial group members of our cohort and we were able to get several ideas from them as well. The Cohort meetings were a great way to learn about the initiatives at the other plants.
