EMP Seminar Outline

Today’s Schedule:

1. Before you begin the EMP…ask who, what, when, why, how.

2. First Steps…create the team, gather materials.

3. Next Steps… benchmarking, and energy audits.

4. Study the findings and make recommendations.

5. What will it cost? What will it save?

6. Finally, pulling it all together

Why do we need an EMP?

December 1, 2005

Electricity costs to skyrocketBy DAVID SCHOETZ

STAFF WRITER

BARNSTABLE - The cost of the electricity supply for Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard

homeowners will increase by 81 percent starting with December meter readings.

The cost of the actual electricity on residential bills will climb from 7.132 cents per kilowatt hour to 12.92 cents….

(Cape Cod Times)

What if…?

What if you are

asked to develop

an Energy

Management Plan?

Is it Mission

Impossible?

© 2001, 1999

Before you begin…

•Who wants the report?

•Why do they want it?

•When do they want it

by?

•What language do they

speak?

•How much do you want

to spend?

Page 8: © 2001, 1999 Energy Management Planning. © 2001, 1999 Introduction Alan R. Mulak, PE (978) 486-4484 amulak@comcast.net.

© 2001, 1999

Before you begin…

Form a team!

Choose wisely!

Before you begin…

Who should be on your “Dream” Team?

First Step

Meetings1. Invite only those who need to be there

2. Send them an agenda ahead of time

3. Start on time

4. Stick to the agenda

5. Take notes

6. Assign action items – everyone should get one

7. Adjourn on time

8. Issue minutes

Page 11: © 2001, 1999 Energy Management Planning. © 2001, 1999 Introduction Alan R. Mulak, PE (978) 486-4484 amulak@comcast.net.

© 2001, 1999

First Step

Gather Materials• Energy bills: All fuels for at least 3 years.

• Graphs! Pictures are truly worth 1000 words.

• Drawings: Both building and equipment.

• Physical descriptions, occupancy patterns, age, etc.

• Pictures!

• Specifications (if available) for all major equipment.

• Preventative Maintenance program summary.

• Written O&M Procedures.

Mandatory Data Needs• Zip code (to normalize data for weather)• Gross square footage of facility (includes secondary

spaces)• 1 year of energy data (all fuel types)

Helpful Data • (defaults may be used in lieu of this info to generate

a rating)• Number of occupants• Number of PCs• Others (depending on space type)

Next, the Energy Audit

• Energy Audits: walk through vs.

comprehensive energy audits

• Smoking guns? Ask your team!

• What can your utility tell you?

• COM Check at www.energycodes.gov for code compliance and

energy power density

• HUD Commercial Audit info at

Energy Audit Survey

• Lighting – simple, biggest bang for the buck.

• Controls – roof vent fans? Exhaust hoods? Water heaters?

• Old, neglected, out-of-tune equipment.

• Leaky ductwork (air systems)

• Hot air blowers

• Steam Traps

• Lack of O&M – filters, PM, etc.

• Cooling Towers – VSD?

© 2001, 1999

Energy Audit Findings

Three categories…

1. Immediate, ASAP.

2. Time bounded…next year or two.

3. Sometime in the future. Capital planning or

further study required.

Page 36: © 2001, 1999 Energy Management Planning. © 2001, 1999 Introduction Alan R. Mulak, PE (978) 486-4484 amulak@comcast.net.

© 2001, 1999

Recommended Measures

• Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) with

paybacks and rebates.

• Automation such as PM and EMS’s.

• Operational changes such as start and stop

times, load shifting, etc.

• Maintenance improvements. BOC!

• Future upgrades (upon burnout).

© 2001, 1999

Recommended Measures

ECM Basics:

Simple Payback = Cost – Rebate / Savings

© 2001, 1999

Recommended Measures

Cost?

• This should be the total cost to install

including labor, taxes, disposal, etc.

• Sometimes, call in a contractor for a cost

estimate.

• Err on the high side.

Page 39: © 2001, 1999 Energy Management Planning. © 2001, 1999 Introduction Alan R. Mulak, PE (978) 486-4484 amulak@comcast.net.

© 2001, 1999

Recommended Measures

Savings?

• This should be the energy and if

significant, labor savings.

• When possible, have someone check your

numbers.

• Err on the low side.

DCV Costs? CO2 sensor technology has improved substantially in recent years, and prices have dropped dramatically.
