PROJECT STARTED WITH V.P. OF BUSSINESS & FINANCE BOE LOOKED AT ENTIRE FREDERICKSBURG CAMPUS FOR POTENTIAL ENERGY CONVERVATION PROJECTS. 8 ENENRGY CONSERVATION PROJECTS APPROVED $ 8.5 MILLION IN PROJECT COSTS

LIGHTING AND CONTROLS ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS WATER CONSERVATION ELECTRICAL SUB-METERING AND PEAK SHAVING INSULATE PIPING REDUCE STEAM PRESSURE IN SUMMER

 CONDENSATE PUMP AND PIPING REPLACEMENT.  DINNING HALL RENOVATION  SAVING ENERGY WHILE MAKING MUCH NEEDED REPAIRS. ALL SYSTEMS HAD TO STAY OPERATIONAL DURING REPAIRS.

 CHANGED ALL T-12 FLORESCENT LIGHTING TO T-8. COMBINATION OF RETROFITS AND NEW FIXTURES IN ALL BUILDINGS AT UMW’S FREDERICKSBURG CAMPUS.  CHANGED ALL INCADESCENT LIGHTS TO COMPACT FLORESCENTS.  COVERTED SEVERAL OTHER TYPES OF LIGHTING TO MORE ENERGY EFFICIENT LIGHTING.  INSTALLED MOTION SENSORS IN MANY LOCATIONS.

 ALL NEW LIGHITNG.  LESS INVENTORY.  LONGER LIFE OF BULBS AND BALLASTS  BETTER LIGHTING IN SOME CASES  COMPLETE INVENTORY OF LIGHTING EQUIPMENT.

 INSTALLED ENENRGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS IN ALL BUILDINGS ON THE FREDERICKSBURG CAMPUS THAT DID NOT ALREADY HAVE THEM.  MAJORITY OF BUILDINGS DID NOT HAVE EMS SYSTEMS.  REPLACED ALL OLD PNEUMATIC SYSTEMS.  PROVIDED REMOTE MONITORING AND CONTROL CAPABILITIES.  PROVIDED ABILITY FOR LOAD SHEDDING AND NIGHT SET BACK.

TROBLESHOOTING SYSTEMS CATCHING PROBLEMS WITH BUILDING SYSTEMS BEFORE THEY BECOME BIGGER ISSUES. REDUCE DOWN TIME. MORE COMFORTABLE BUILDINGS.

 INSTALLED NEW TOILETS AND FLUSH VALVES GPF  INSTALLED ALL NEW PRESSURE ASSIST BOWL TYPE TOILETS. 1.6 GPF  REPLACED URNAL FLUSH VALVES. 1.0 GPF  INSTALL NEW SHOWER HEADS. 2 GPM  LAVATORY FAUCETS AERATORS. 1 GPM AND 1.5 GPM.  KITCHEN SINK AERATORS 2.2 GPM.

 ALL NEW TOILETS AND FLUSH VALVES.  NEW FAUCETS IN CERTAIN AREAS.  ALL NEW SHOWER HEADS.  REDUCE INVENTORY ONE MAKE AND MODEL.  COMPLETE INVENTORY OF TOILETS, LAVATORIES, SHOWERS, AND KITCHEN SINKS  SAMPLE TESTING OF FLUSH VALVES AND TOILETS REDUCED CLOGS.

 ALLOWS FOR PEAK SHAVING.  BURNING ICE STORAGE DURING PEAK TIMES.  SHOWS WHERE ENERGY IS BEING USED.  PROVIDES TRENDING OPORTUNITIES.  HELPS VARIFY ELECTRICAL POWER USAGE.

 INSULATED ALL EXPOSED STEAM PIPING AND HOT WATER PIPES.  REDUCED THERMAL ENERGY LOSS.  REDUCED THE HEAT LOAD IN CERTAIN AREAS.

 REDUCED OPERATIONAL STEAM PRESSURE FORM 100 TO 50 PSI.  REDUCED RADIANT LOSS  REDUCED STEAM LEAKAGE DUE TO LOWER PRESSURE.  REDUCE BOILER EXHAUST TEMP AND INCREASED EFFIENCY OF BOILER.

 REPLACED EXISTING PRIMARY ELECTRICAL CONDENSATE PUMP AND TANK WITH STEAM DRIVEN CONDENSATE PUMP AND TANK.  REPLACED MAIN CONDENSATE FROM PUMP STATION TO THE CENTRAL HEATING PLANT. INSTALL EXPANSION NEW EXPANSION JOINTS AND INSULATE.  OVER 1000 FEET OF PIPING REPLACED.  KEEP ALL STEAM DOMESTIC HOTWATER CONVERTERS IN MAJORITY OF BUILDINGS OPERATIONAL DUEING THE PROJECT.

 CUT DOWN TIME, CAUSED BY FAILING ELECTRICAL PUMP MOTOR DUE TO THE CONDITIONS IN THE SPACE.  REMOVED ACMs FROM TUNNEL.  REDUCE CONFINE SPACE ENTRIES.

 REPLACED HEATING SYSTEM, COOLING SYSTEM, ALL WATER AND SEWER LINES WERE REPLACED, NEW KITCHEN HOOD, ALL NEW EQUIPMENT, AND STRUCTURAL REPAIR TO KITCHEN FLOOR.  KEPT DIINING HALL OPERATIONAL THROUGH OUT RENOVATION.

 CONVERTED STEAM TO HOT WATER,WHICH PROVIDED BETTER CONTROL.  NEW AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM.  NEW KITCHEN EQUIPMENT.

 ALL GURANTEED SAVINGS WERE MET AND EXCEEDED.  PERFORMED 4 YEARS OF MV AFTER PROJECT WAS COMPLETED.  HAD THIRD PARTY REVIEW ON FIRST YEAR TO CONFIRM SAVINGS.  REMEMBER ENENRGY SAVINGS DOESN’T ALWAYS MEAN UTILITY BILLS WILL COST LESS. ( NEW BUILINGS, COST OF ENERGY ETC.)  COST AVOIDANCE IS THE BEST TERM TO USE WITH FINANCE.

- EPC IS ANOTHER TOOL IN THE TOOL BOX - CAN HELP MEET EO 31 - CAN HELP REDUCE DEFERED MAINTENANCE - BRINGS OUTSIDE EXPERTISE THAT CAN HELP WITH FINDING SOLUTIONS TO DIFFICULT ISSUES - REDUCE CARBON FOOT PRINT - CAN PROVIDE FINANCING - CAN CONFIRM ISSUES FACILITY PERSONNEL HAVE IDENTIFIED

-THEY KNOW THE FACILITIES EQUIPMENT AND THE MAINTENANCE NEEDS - THEY CAN IDENTFY THE MOST PRESSING NEEDS - - HAVE THEM REVIEW ECM FOR THEIR TRADE AREA. - HAVE SAMPLES OF ALL EQUIPMENT TO BE INSTALLED REVIEWED AND APPROVED. - THEIR SUPPORT AND BUY IN, IS KEY TO THE SUCCESS OF THE PROJECT

- FINANCE - PURCHASING - FACILITIES - - OTHERS WHO MAY BE AFFECTED BY PROJECTS - USE DMME AS A RESOURCE

-THIS IS THE BEST TIME TO NEGOCIATE. YOU HAVEN’T SPENT ANY MONEY YET. YOU CAN NEGOCIATE WITH TWO OR MORE OF THE ESCOs, - DECIDE WHETHER TO MOVE TO THE NEXT STEP THE INVESTMENT GRADE ENERGY AUDIT - YOU CAN STOP HERE WITH NO PENALTY. - IF YOU DECIDE TO MOVE FORWARD SELECT AN ESCO, NEGOCIATE PRICE FOR IGA, SIGN MOU. YOU ARE STILL NOT COMMITED TO MOVE ON ANY PROJECTS. -

REVIEW ALL PROPOSED ECMs, PROJECTED SAVINGS, COSTS AND PROJECTED SAVINGS OR PAYBACK TIME. DEFINITELY HAVE ALL INTERESTED PARTIES REVIEW SPECIFIC PROJECTS THAT PERTAIN TO THERE AREA. THE SCOPE OF WORK IN THE AUDIT IS YOUR CONTRACT. MAKE SURE IT HAS WHAT YOU WANT. NEGOCIATE AND MOVE FORWARD OR STOP AT THIS POINT.
