4 Campus Power Overview University of Kentucky

5 University of Kentucky Campus Power Stats Electricity Cost Distribution of UK TOD Electricity Bill 0.09% Basic Service Charge ($) 12.70% Energy Charge ($) 6.90% Peak Demand as billed ($) 310,000,000 KWH 70 MW peak demand $20 million annual cost 28.5 % 8.52% 13.08% 58.71% Intermediate Demand as billed ($) Base Demand as billed ($) Taxes, Fees & Other 12-Month Total History of Electricity Charges Energy Costs $ 11,815, Total Demand Costs $ 5,735, Peak Demand (kva) $ 2,631, Intermediate Demand (kva) $ 1,714, Base Demand (kva) $ 1,388,979.37

7 History of Demand at UK

8 Defining Demand

9 Understanding Demand Energy consumption is measured in kilowatthours (kwh) Demand is measured in kilowatts (kw) or kilovolt-amperes (kva) Measurement is sampled every 15 minutes Highest 15-minute interval per billing period is used to set the demand charge Customer pays based on when the power is used Cost recovery mechanism for transmission and distribution infrastructure Could be 30-50% of electricity bill

10 The Checkout Lane Dilemma

11

12 Common Types of Rates Rates without Demand Fees Residential General Service: Less than 50kw Rates with Demand Fees Power Service: 50kw to 250kw Primary Secondary Time-of-Day Service: More than 250kw Primary Secondary Wholesale or Transmission Customers Not common in regulated market like KY

13 Residential Service No Demand Charge Slightly higher Energy Charge per kwh

14 Residential Service

15 Power Service One demand charge year round, all day Low energy charge per kwh

16 Power Service Secondary

17 Time of Day Primary Three demand levels each day, two different seasonal times Low energy charge per kwh

18 Time of Day Primary Summer Months: Peak: 1pm to Intermediate: 10am 7pm to 10pm Base Period: All Hours - 12am to 12am $4.26/kVA $2.76/kVA $1.71/kVA

30 Additional Strategies Thermal Storage Combined Heat & Power

31 Common Demand Pitfalls

32 Improper Sizing Oversizing a transformer can cost you every month Contracts are in place to ensure utility company recovers cost of infrastructure Be mindful of renovations Your power load may drop Your contract might charge you minimums

33 Improper Building Automation Use Turning everything on at once might set your demand for an entire month or year In the morning After power outage Don t Set It and Forget It

34 The Utility Company is Always Watching It only takes 15 minutes to set a peak for the month or even year Minimums look at highest billed demand over last 11 months

35 Power Demand 101 Review Campus Power Overview Defining Demand Demand Management Strategies Common Pitfalls Questions

36 Questions? Britney Thompson, Energy Engineer University of Kentucky Phone:

37 Energy Storage for a Cooler Future Earl C. Rudolph CALMAC Manufacturing Corp. Maumee, OH Erudolph@calmac.com 38

38 Cool Storage The storage solution is: NOT so much about rates and rebates It is About: Right Sizing Cooling Systems Safety factor, Redundancy Sustainable (LEED) Design Emergency Cooling Lowering cooling costs 20% 40% Conserving cooling tower capacity Reducing Connected Load Reducing Pollution

39 Thermal Energy Storage For Off-Peak Cooling What is it? How does it work? Why is it Green? Other Green Advantages Applications/Case Studies

40 Off Peak Cooling Applications Schools Churches Community Homes Military Bases Offices Retail Stores Chiller Replacements Remodels & Additions Banquet Halls Theaters / Arenas /Auditoriums Hospitals / Surgical Centers Convention Centers Data Warehouses

41 Reduces electricity costs Demand and energy charges Smaller cooling equipment Smaller electrical service Less mechanical room space Meet increased loads without adding new cooling capacity Less maintenance Lower replacement costs

42 Decrease energy use Operate cooling equipment at best efficiency Eliminate inefficient part-load operation Take advantage of cooler nighttime temperatures Reduce distribution energy

43 Reduce source energy and emissions More efficient off-peak power generation Reduced transmission and distribution losses RP-991 showed attractive reductions in source energy using storage Ice storage up to 14% Emissions Efficiency

44 Increase operational flexibility Backup cooling source Adapt to changing electric rates Take advantage of dynamic electric rates Add dispatch options for central cool-heat-power plants Redundancy Rates Energy Storage Building Usage

45 Future Buildings will Need Storage = Coal and Oil can be stored for when we need it. = Clean Energy only good when wind blows or sun glows.

62 Thermal Energy Storage For Off-Peak Cooling What is it? How does it work? Why is it Green?

63 Real reasons Off-Peak Cooling is Green: 1. It is much more Energy Efficient to create and deliver a kwh of Electricity at night than during the heat of the day. Research from the California Energy Commission on 2 Cal. Utilities Reports 8 to 34% savings in raw fuel when comparing On and Off Peak Operation! Heat Rates for Base Load Plants ~7,800 Btu/kWh vs. Peaking Plants ~9,400 to 14,000 Btu/kWh 2. The last power plants to come on during peak hours are normally the dirtiest per kw Ashok Gupta (Director of Energy, NRDC) in NY Times article Peak Shifting results in lower emissions because some of the plants used to meet demand peaks are among the dirtiest in the city New CA Report by Greg Kats The Costs and Financial Benefits of Green Buildings states Peak power in CA is twice as dirty as Off Peak Power.

64 What about LEED? With TES a building will have Smaller refrigeration plant Less refrigeration required Lower probability of refrigerant loss to environment Utilizes base load-generated electricity Improved heat rates by generating at night Use less source and site energy Reduce CO2 emissions Less transmission & distribution losses off-peak Reduces need to build new generation as well as T&D infrastructure

67 Thermal Energy Storage For Off-Peak Cooling What is it? How does it work? Why is it Green? Other Green Advantages

68 Other Green Issues Safety Factors/Redundancy (Over-sizing) It is well documented that oversized chiller plants create less efficient real world operation. Engineers have to protect their licenses Storage is the natural solution

69 What about Design Safety Factor? Design Day Cooling Load Profile Safety Factor (1) 500 ton? or (2) 250 tons? or (2) 300 tons? 400 Tons Time

70 Safety Capacity on Design Day 600 Max Cooling Profile Conventional Cooling (2) 250 ton chillers Design Day Cooling Load Profile Tons Time

72 Safety Capacity on Design Day Storage Chiller Stored Cooling Storage System Shortfall Storage System 1 (2) 145 Ton Chillers 1,400 ton-hr Storage Tons Conventional 1 (2)- 250 Ton Chillers 0 Time

73 What about the cost? Conventional Chiller Solution: (2) 250 ton chillers x $1500 / ton installed = $ 750,000 Ice Storage Solution: (2) 145 ton chillers x $1750 / ton installed = $ 507, ton-hrs ice tanks x $150 / ton-hr installed = 210,000 Ethylene Glycol and controls = 75,000 Total = $ 792,000 Less Cooling Tower, Electrical, smaller piping = - $ 40,000 System Costs are about the same! Too much ice harms the economics

74 Costs of Storage What s the Installed Cost of a ton of Chiller Plant? $1000/ton,$1200/ton,$1400/ton,$1600/ton,$1800/ton Storage Costs installed ~ $100 to $150 per tonhr Depending on location, application and design For each 1 ton of chiller you reduce you need about 8 to 9 ton-hrs of storage. Costs are about the same

95 Comparison of ice tank farm to cooling tower space/volume

96 Summary Owners and regulators are demanding designs that impact the environment and wallet less while improving occupant health and productivity. Construction and real estate businesses are realizing that green design is a good business practice.

97 Summary Sustainable designs are a team effort and are not cost prohibitive Instead of adding 20-30% to estimated load, reduce by 20-30% and add storage for safety at no extra cost. Cool Storage earns LEED points in E&A section, reduces operating costs, load on the grid, and environmental impact of cooling.
