Today’s AgendaBrief Background

End-Use Analysis Evaluation

Performing An Audit Identifying O&M Measures Identifying Potential Conservation Measures


Assess Current Lighting Conditions

Analytical Amount of Light – foot candles. Amount of Energy Amount of Energy ––

watts, watts/sqft, kwh, KW Amount of O&M– lamps, ballasts, labor.

Visual Location Glare (direct/reflected) Uniformity Color Rendition

Aesthetics Color Temperature Grandfather factor

THE BASICS


It’s Green not Greed….

There are many audit companies, many cookie cutter solutions, and not many plausible paybacks.

First is First, before contacting any audit company, it is beneficial to make contact with your Electric companies Business Agent.


Problems: Minimum Usage Clause

For Example your Public Service Company has got you locked in a Minimum Usage Clause

Regardless the utility that your clause is tied to. With Green Solutions your dynamic system could present paths the recover, re-use that required load until the contract is up.


Electric Costs are like Property Values, no matter the trend they are always going up. Tie that into a Minimum Usage Clause and they potentially put you in a corner.

DYNAMIC SYSTEMS make it difficult to forecast electric usage. Without trending, analysis, proper preventative maintenance how can say for sure you will always need the amount of electric, gas, etc….

Systems, manufacturing., buildings they change…

Audits

Types of audits

Initial evaluation: off site, very basic baselines, no cost.

Walk Through: general data, simple calculations, no or little cost

Complete audit: very detailed, all fixtures, actual rate, monitoring, energy

measurements, ““guarantee grade”.©2007 ESPM Energy Consultants, L.L.C. All Rights Reserved.

Walk-Through AuditInitial Site Walk-Through

Identifies/Generates List of Opportunities Operations and Maintenance Items Potential Conservation Measures

Determines if Investment Grade Audit is required.

Tools to Use: Walk-Through Survey Form List of Potential Measures


Fundamentals of Conducting a Thorough AuditAccurate baseline: general, quantity, condition,

energy, usageGeneral: voltage, asbestos, local codesQuantity: use detailed map, count ““outs””Team Approach: communication and relationship

creates that team atmosphere and always will produce better outcomes

Condition: approximate age, lenses, socketsEnergy: exact lamp/ballast specs, actual utility

rate Hours: hours of usage logged verify night usage,

seasonal.


Basic CalculationsEnergy usageFluorescent lamp and ballast specs

published. Listed in ballast catalogs “Input watts”Energy use the same, even if lamps lose light

levelBasic formula

Energy saved x Cost of Electricity x Hours of use

1000


Validity TipsMicrosoft Excel is a format of choice.

Proprietary Software or “locked cells” (which hide equations), in my experience, benefits the auditor

Is the Audit for a Fee or for Free? At ESPM we plan to benchmark auditing by offering as

many free audits as possible Not all systems and utilities present that option, but when

there is a fee it will notit will not fluctuate from company to company without reason.
