ENSAMB Energy Saving in Municipal Buildings in Small Communities in Rural Districts

EASME – April 2015

ENSAMB April 2015

Who we are?: Region Council of Sør-Østerdal Representing the Municipalities:

Elverum

Engerdal

Stor-Elvdal

Trysil

Åmot

Co-partner: Hedmark County (7%)

ENSAMB April 2015


Sør-Østerdal:

5 Municipalities

35.000 inhabitants

Total areal 9.945 km2

Scattered population

Cold and dry climate

133 municipal buildings: 260.000m2 with an energy consumption of 45 GWh

Most buildings are from the period 1950 - 80 (when energy costs were very low)

ENSAMB April 2015


Hedmark County 200.000 Inhabitants

22 Municipalities

27.000 Km²

Co-owner (33%) in Inland Energy Agency

Operates buildings all over the County,

- responsible for the secondary schools.

- some of the healthcare.

SEAP of 2009 is under revision now.

Administration center: HAMAR. 30.000 Inhabitants.

ENSAMB April 2015


We are also affected by the climate change

• Requirements from the State: SEAP

• National Targets

• EU 20-20-20, Covenant of Mayors

ENSAMB April 2015


Starting point of the Project: All the 5 municipalities in Sør-Østerdal

have approved Energy- and Climate plans (SEAP) (2004 – 2009)

Energy saving measures in municipal buildings are important elements of these plans.

Sør-Østerdal are signatories of “Covenant of Mayors”

But: The municipalities have very limited resources. → The motivation for financial savings dominates

ENSAMB April 2015


We have a Target:

”To reduce the Energy consumption in the Municipal buildings in i Sør-Østerdal with 25% by 2015”

How to achieve?

Through investments, Developing competence and skills. Motivation and Information. Change of behavior How?

Cooperation and working together. Joint project established in 2009

ENSAMB April 2015


Estimated investment:

Approx. 11 MEuro (85 MNOK) Although measures are profitable, there are no automatic funding mechanisms in the municipalities.

We are therefore working with different methods:

EPC (Energy Performance Contract)

Conventional contracting

Financing from the Municipalities and/or bank.

A combination

ENSAMB April 2015


We wanted to speed up.

ENOVA (State Energy Agency) encouraged us

to apply for IEE / MLEI

“Energy Saving in Municipal Buildings in

Small Communities in Rural Districts”

MLEI – ENSAMB

Project period: 18th June 2012 – 30th October 2015

ENSAMB April 2015


Project key task:

Energy savings in the small

municipalities by:

1. Providing technical assistance

and technical training

2. Modeling inter-municipal

cooperation Contracts (EPC)

3. Initiate Conventional and

Integrated EE investments

ENSAMB April 2015


Steps in the ENSAMB-project:

1. Find out current situation of energy

consumption

2. Suggest contract strategy for each building

3. Bundling into larger packages

4. Initiate financing. (Doing the measures

bankable)

5. Initiate investments / actions

6. Negotiate, Procurement

7. Training of the operational staff

8. Documentation, Information and Motivation

ENSAMB April 2015


Why we recommend the EPC-model:

1. The guaranteed energy savings

2. Capacity

133 buildings with an average of

9 measures, gives over 1000 contracts.

The municipalities do not have the resources to handle

this. Neither technical nor procedural.

3. Speed

We want to act!

But: We still had to convince the Municipal Councils

ENSAMB April 2015


Buildings with the same challenges will be

systematized for collective (similar) purchasing

procedures in the supplier market.

Reason: Attract suppliers to achieve good conditions.

Categories in the bundling:

EPC-contracts

Conventional purchasing

Integrated project.

(Mayor refurbishment with an energy part)

Contract bundling

ENSAMB April 2015


1. Time schedule (progress in political processes)

2. Volume (optimally between 1-5 MEuro)

3. Willingness to agree on common criteria’s

- Calculation interest rate - Calculation energy price

- Selection principles

- Other contract details

Our case: Bundle A: 1 Bid, 1 Contract

Bundle B: 1 Bid, 4 Contracts

Bundling criteria's EPC

ENSAMB April 2015


• The Competition: “Negotiated contract”

• The ESCO’s was invited to investigate pilot buildings (2 – 4 buildings)

• The ESCO’s was invited to:

- Provide fixed prices for the pilot

buildings

- Estimated values for the total

• Evaluation and Contract award.

• Project development for the buildings

Our EPC process

ENSAMB April 2015


Norsk Standard NS 6430:2014 • Real estate development

(“Umbrella”)

• Project development (Phase 1)

• Project execution (Phase 2)

• Project Following up (Phase 3)

EPC Contracts

ENSAMB April 2015


• The Audit Phase: 6 – 12 month

• The Bid Phase: 4 – 5 month

• Evaluation / Contract award: 3 month

• The Analysis (Phase1): 3 – 5 month

• Political approval (Possible EXIT): 2 month

• Implementation (Phase 2): 1 – 2 years

• Guarantee with follow-up

(Phase 3): 5 – 9 years

Motivation: Savings > 110% will be shared 50/50

The Phases

ENSAMB April 2015


Financing (Hardware)

The Investments was (preliminary)

calculated to ~11’25 MEuro

The sources are a mix of:

- Municipal Budgets (mostly).

- Some subsidies (ENOVA). (ca. 10%)

- Bank loans in the Municipal Bank of Norway

(“green” interest rate 0,1% below nominal)

- Supplier and/or 3 party. (Not competitive)

ESCO SIEMENS NEE A/S

ENSAMB April 2015


Important part:

Training of the building operators.

Covers 6 technical topics

For each: 1 day practical training “at site”.

Top teachers from Norway and Sweden

As preparation for the detail training of

equipment delivered by (and done by) the

contractor.

A highly appreciated motivation task.

60-70 operators has participated

Status (EPC)

• EPC Elverum:

Takeover: December 2013

First year shows energy savings as

promised in the contract

• EPC Engerdal, Stor-Elvdal, Trysil og Åmot:

- Contracts signed October 2013

- Implementation of measures in 2014 - Takeover in December 2014 – April 2015

ENSAMB April 2015


Status Investments (Preliminary)

• Signed Contracts 2012 – 2014: 9,6 MEuro EPC and some conventional and Integrated projects

• Signed Contracts 2015 (expected) 2 MEuro Integrated projects and some conventional project

ENSAMB April 2015


Lessons learned in Sør-Østerdal

Use an existing cooperation platform

The «as-is» description (audit) of the buildings is

important (Must be correct. Takes time)

Good communication with the Councils.

(Information to Mayor / Director. Meet the Councils)

Cooperate with the Building Technicians

(Operational staff are the key-personell !)
