5 The BIG Questions in the Energy World We all know how to How save energy, BUT do we Where do we find the no-cost improvements that everyone talks about? fund our energy How do we ensure the continued (good) performance of our energy upgrades? improvements? 5

6 How do we fund our energy improvements? ESPC = Energy Savings Performance Contract ESCO Procures $ ESCO Installs ECMs ESCO = Energy Services Company ECM = Energy Conservation Measures $ Paid Back from Energy Savings UESC = Utility Energy Service Contract UTILITY Procures $ Utility Installs ECMs $ Paid Back from Energy Savings In both cases the organization receives energy savings with no upfront costs! 6

7 The BIG Questions in the Energy World How do we fund We all know how to save energy, BUT Very important to the Organization Where do we find the no-cost improvements that everyone talks about? our energy Strategic Energy Management System improvements? How do we ensure the continued (good) performance of our energy upgrades? ESPC/UESC Very important to the ESCO/Utility 7

13 How do we ensure the continued (good) performance of our energy upgrades? THREAT SEMS THREAT RESPONSE Poorly trained operators Poor maintenance Change of organizational focus Unrelated energy-intensive changes to operation Operator competency requirements Operational Controls Maintenance personnel competency requirements Require energy reporting Normalized energy baseline Energy manager retires or moves on Persistent organizational accountabilities 13 Copyright 2014 Global Strategic Energy All rights reserved.
