Agenda
• Who is Silicon Valley Power?• Energy Efficiency Program value
– To our customers
– To our utility
– To our community
• What we can bring to the table• Case study
– Owens Corning
4
Silicon Valley Power
• City of Santa Clara’s municipal electric utility• Located 50 miles south of San Francisco• System Statistics:
– ~500 MW peak– ~3000 GWh sales (70% load factor)– 90% of sales are commercial and industrial– $0.089 system average rate– Diverse resources throughout Western USA
• 28.5 % eligible renewable resources (Geothermal, wind, small hydro)• 50% including large hydro
5
Type of Customers
• High tech headquarters and R&D– Intel, Sun Micro Systems, Applied Materials, National
Semiconductor, etc.
• Datacenters • Manufacturing
– Solar and semiconductor
– Paperboard mills
– Fiberglass insulation
6
Energy Efficiency Programsare Good for Business
• Helping customers use our product more efficiently– Helps facilities compete and keeps them open
• Retains jobs, load, etc.
– Attracts new business to community• Benefits other customers by spreading fixed costs
– Frees up resources to serve others
– Reduces carbon footprint
• Provides contact with customers– Leads to communications on many issues
7
What our customers want
• Customers’ primary energy concerns– High reliability– Environmental accountability– Stable, competitive prices– Speed to market
8
SVP Industrial Energy Efficiency Programs
• Free Energy Audits – Limited scope due to resources and expertise
• Lighting, HVAC, Motor & VFD Rebates• Customer Directed Rebates• Compressed Air Management Program (CAMP)• Keep Your Cool – Gasket Replacement• Retrocommissioning
9
DOE Save Energy Now Program
• Reduce industrial energy use by 25% over 10 years• Provides technical expertise
– No cost energy assessments
– Focus on energy-intensive systems such as: • Process heating
• Steam
• Pumps
• Fans
• Compressed air
10
Case Study
• Owens Corning – DOE’s “Save Energy Now” program
– SVP’s Compressed Air Management Program
– Multiple energy saving projects identified
11
Owens Corning
12
Owens Corning
• Fiberglass insulation manufacturing facility – Major industrial customer since 1949
– Provides employment and customer diversity
– Plant competes with other manufacturers and other Owens Corning plants
13
DOE Save Energy Now Program (Owens Corning cont’d)
• Participated in Save Energy Now at corporate level• At Santa Clara facility
– Fan Assessments
– Pump Assessment
– Compressed air and Other Assessments
14
Fan Assessments(Owens Corning cont’d)
• DOE Save Energy Now Program– Trained Owens Corning employees to perform
assessments
• In Santa Clara: – 2 fan assessments in 2007
– 1 assessment in 2008
– 2 additional assessments planned
15
Fan Assessments (Owens Corning cont’d)
• 2007 Fan assessments resulted in 3 projects: – VFD to Penclone (M – Line)
• 361,000 kWh savings annually
– VFD to Penclone (O – Line)• 361,000 kWh savings annually
– Oven Fan VFD• 398,000 kWh savings annually
– Projects will be complete in Fall 2008
• Additional Project considered for 2009– Forming Fan Optimization VFD
• Potential savings of 2,296,000 kWh annually
16
Pump Assessment (Owens Corning cont’d)
• Pump Assessment performed in 2007• Resulted in review of treated water flows
– Installation of VFDs
• Project completed in June 2008• Annual savings of 263,000 kWh
17
Compressed Air and Other Assessments
(Owens Corning cont’d)
• Compressed Air– SVP’s Compressed Air Management Program (CAMP)
• Same consultant as DOE Save Energy Now Program
• Compressed Air system improvements– 3,064,000 kWh savings annually
• Project to be complete in Fall 2008
– Process Heat Assessment• DOE PHAST tool was not applicable to the glass industry
18
Owens Corning cont’d• DOE Save Energy Now Program Provided
– Technical expertise and assessments– Training of Owens Corning personnel
• SVP will provide– Over $400,000 in rebates
• SVP and City benefits– Retained a major industrial load
• Diverse from many loads in our territory– Retained jobs
