  1. ESPC SUSTAINABLE OPERATIONS OPEN MIC MAY 16, 2012 P.E. Leyba U.S. Forest Service - Region 3 pleyba01@fs.fed.us Region 3 - ENERGY SAVINGS PERFORMANCE CONTRACT

  2. ESPC • Partnership between Federal agency and energy service company (ESCO). • ESCO conducts energy audit on facility and identifies energy conservation measures (ECM’S). • In consultation with the agency, ESCO designs and constructs project to meet agency's needs. • ESCO arranges financing for the project.

  3. ESPC • ESCO guarantees ECM’S will generate energy cost savings sufficient to pay for project over the term of the contract. • Energy savings estimated, guaranteed @ 90% • Agency pays ESCO annually from energy cost savings. • After contract ends, all energy cost savings go to agency. • Contract terms of up to 25 years allowed.

  4. ESPC • Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPCs) allow Federal agencies to accomplish energy savings projects without up-front capital costs and without special Congressional appropriations.

  5. USFS R3 ESPC • DOE contract w/ various ESCO’s • 2008 Honeywell was selected for R3 contract. • February 2009 Honeywell “Energy Audit” estimate for ECM’s ~$1,600,000 • First year savings estimate = $103,000 • First year savings GUARANTEE = $94,500 • Simple payback = 15.7 years

  6. USFS R3 ESPC • March 2009 – R3 makes “buy down” lump sum payment = $1,050,000. • Balance = $550,000 + interest (6.88%) = $650,000 over 8 year term. • 8 annual payments of ~$80,000. (“from annual energy savings”)

  7. USFS R3 ESPC • By April 1, 2010 – Most ECM’s installed. • First payment due on April 1, 2010. HOWEVER • After evaluating all proposed ECM’s at all sites for feasibility…………. • Total cost of ECM’s ~$1,093,000 • 80+ Buildings, 9 National Forests • With contract modification, annual payments will be ~ $0, agency will incur energy savings.

  8. USFS R3 ESPC • FY11 payment = Principle + Interest + Monitoring and Verification ~$60,000 • FY 12 payment = Interest + Monitoring &Verification (M&V) ~ $30,000 • FY 13 – FY 18 = M&V ~ $3,000 / year • Annual energy savings ~$65,000

  9. ECM’S INSTALLED Honeywell TH8110 Programmable Thermostat Proposed = 600, Installed = 64

  10. ECM’S INSTALLED Inncom E528 Intelligent Thermostat

  11. LIGHTING ECM’S INSTALLED • Linear Fluorescent, Next Generation T-8 lamps, High Efficiency Instant Start Electronic Ballasts • Incandescent LED Exit Signs • Incandescent lamps Compact Fluorescent lamps • Control Sensors and Occupancy Sensors • Linear Fluorescent, T-8 High Lumen Lamp technology for High-Bay Facilities • New fixtures including LED exit signs • Proposed = 1468, installed = 4778

  12. ECM’S INSTALLED Solar Photovoltaic LED – Proposed = 64, Installed = 12 • Photovoltaic Panel • Charge Controller • Battery Backup

  13. ECM’S INSTALLED • WOOD FIRED HEATER • Proposed = 6, Installed = 1

  14. ECM’S INSTALLED • Solar Domestic Hot Water • Proposed = 4, Installed = 2

  15. ECM’S PROVIDED • ELECTRIC METER / DATA LOGGER • Proposed = 31, Actual = 31 • USFS responsible for deployment of the meters on the buildings as they see fit. • The meters are capable of monitoring 3 phase power and storing the electric power information for several months. • The USFS will be able to download and analyze power data.

  16. USFS R3 ESPC

  17. USFS R3 ESPC WHAT NEXT???? • Accounting for all installations. • Warrantee items • Energy savings monitoring by both ESCO and USFS. (M&V) • Annual payments for remainder of term for M&V.

  18. R3 ESPC - LESSONS LEARNED • MORE ECM’S IN CLOSER LOCATIONS • HIGHER THE $ VALUE THE BETTER • LIGHTING ECM’S = MOST OF INSTALLS • TRAINED FS PROJECT MANAGER • TRAINING FOR LOCAL CONTACTS • TYPE OF $ USED FOR PAYMENTS VS. TYPE OF $ SAVED? • ONLY INCLUDE BUILDINGS LIKELY TO BE IN SERVICE THROUGH CONTRACT PERIOD • ESTIMATED ECM’S MAY NOT = ACTUAL

  19. Training available: • June 7, 2012 • Streamlining ESPCs for Small Sites (Web-based) • Offered by FEMP, webinar fosters skill in using ENABLE - a streamlined ESPC process that allows smaller facilities to contract with ESCOs on energy-saving projects. Includes eligibility criteria, the use of standardized forms as well as self-assessments to reduce application time, costs, reviews, and approvals. • Time 01:30 PM to 03:00 PM (Eastern) • http://www.fedcenter.gov/Events/index.cfm?id=21103 • OTHER FEMP TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES – • http://apps1.eere.energy.gov/femp/training/
