3 Public Building Enhanced Energy Efficiency Program (PBEEEP) Newer buildings Make existing systems more efficient Retro-commissioning, controls, lighting and other less equipment intensive energy saving retrofits Comprehensive projects that are too small for GESP State program at Admin; Local program at COMM Guaranteed Energy Savings Program (GESP) Older buildings Deep energy efficiency retrofits (redesign & replace), in addition to PBEEEP type retrofits (modify) Address deferred maintenance, renew building infrastructure and make existing systems more efficient 3

4 Program Development and Administration Pre-qualify ESCOs (Providers) Master Contract, Joint Powers Agreement, Site-Specific RFP Opportunity Assessment B3 Benchmarking Data Needs, Issues and Goals Project Development Assistance Project Implementation Oversight Annual Project Performance Evaluation 4

5 Save Energy Reduce energy and operating costs Address facility issues and goals Achieve greenhouse gas reduction Implement measures in a timely manner with existing staff and budget Minimize risk of achieving intended results Budget Neutral Approach to Save Energy and Address Facility Issues & Goals 5

13 What is Energy Savings Performance Contracting? The use of guaranteed savings from the maintenance, operations and utilities budget as capital to make needed upgrades and modernizations to your building environmental systems, financed over a specified period of time. - U.S. Department of Energy

14 Where do the dollars come from? Source of Savings Utilities Operational Capital Cost Avoidance* Gas Electric Fuel Oil Water Sewer Equipment & Supplies Outsource Costs Residual Damage Administrative Major Equipment Structural Infrastructure * Budgeted Deferred maintenance or equipment replacement Re-direct the $ s paid to the Utilities - to purchase new Capital Equipment

17 Traditional Bid / Spec Low bid awarded based on specifications Project costs funded by capital budget Piecemeal approach based on available dollars Up-front fee for evaluation/studies Performance & savings are not guaranteed Multiple contracts with multiple vendors Contractors have no accountability to lifecycle costs Owner assumes risk Performance-Based Awarded based on performance & lifecycle costs Payments for projects are offset by guaranteed savings freeing up capital for other needs Comprehensive approach No up-front fee required Long-term performance & savings are guaranteed One contract, single-point accountability Performance-based contractor is tied to guaranteeing savings over term of contract Performance contractor takes risk
