Five keys to Developing a Sustainable Plan

1. All management must be committed- controllable
   results!
2. Be accountable at all levels- recycling goal,
   kWhrs saved, green focus, financial analysis
3. Celebrates past success and rewards future
   achievements- communicate results and
   accountability
4. Dont hesitate to bring in an expert such as an
   Energy Performance Contractor- Virginia Pick 4
   process provides free back of the envelope
   audits
5. Everyone Wins Play win- win not win- lose, keep
   focused on the big picture look at technologies
   as they become available and look for
   serendipities for win/win

Energy Team Participation

• Skills utilize your Energy Teams skills in
  creating your plan
• Planning 5-year, 10-year
• Accounting- facility level for all utilities
• Communication- production of Master Plan,
  management presentation, newsletter
• Knowledge of Facilities- maintenance
• Tool Bag Review your resources
• Benchmarking , Grid Technologies, Dashboards
• Training
• Audits
• Software
• Models, Business Plan, Financial Analysis
• Others-Financing, purchasing options, promotions,
  grants

Facilities Information

• Number of Buildings, location, contact person,
  purpose of building, load profile, maintenance
  logs, existing rates
• Energy use flexibility, Continuous
  Re-Commissioning, performance measures, energy
  accounting, building automation points list
• Review historical energy consumption- growth,
  seasonal profile
• Select a method to record, analyze, track and
  report use and costs for each facility- excel
  spreadsheet, software.
• Develop reports that show seasonal trends for
  each facility and energy mix for the period
  measured
• Show how you can measure and manage your usage

6
Fuel Mix Options

• Identify existing energy mix- 10 oil, 65
  Electric, 25 Natural Gas
• Available fuels- Fuels not presently being used -
  propane
• Pricing Trends graphed over time
• Price Switch Points- Delivered BTUs /Dollar
• Purchasing Options- Delivery costs, Terms

7
Rate and Schedule Optimization

• Invite local utility representative to discuss
  rate options for each facility
• Invite facility superintendent to discuss
  building schedule flexibility
• Develop an existing versus ideal profile of usage
  and available rates to optimize each

8
Energy Security

• Facility Specific Building Rating System
• Mission Critical Assessment
• Priority Listing
• Data Storage for critical operations
• Procedures in Place for Emergencies
• Back up Generation
• Availability
• Size
• Fuel, storage
• Maintenance

Integrating Smart Grid Devices into your Master
Energy Plan requires Financial Analysis

• All Smart Grid Devices must provide measurable
  benefits for your organization
• These measures or economic analysis include
  (ROI), return on investment, Break Even Analysis,
  Payback and must involve a SWOT Analysis and
  Business Plan
• What is the value of energy security to your
  organization?
• How sustainable is your plan?

15
Develop The Report

• Address corporate goals
• Link accountability to sustainability
• Demonstrate Control measures
• Communicate Goals and Results Graphically
• Show Energy Master Planning Benefits
