1. Energy Management Annual Report

2. The overall average for 2009-2010 was 53
The overall average for was 53.3 kBTU/Ft2 (1000 British Thermal Units / Square Foot) . The overall average for is kBTU/Ft2

3. Reduction in electrical usage is 1,037,395 kwh when comparing this year ( ) to the baseline year ( )
Based upon todays rates this provides the district a cost avoidance of $91,248
Graph includes main building and all mobile units

6. Summary 2012-2013 vs. 2009-2010 (baseline)
Cost Avoidance Savings $163,761.59
Cost Avoidance Savings is the difference of this year’s utility usage, when compared to the baseline year ( ), times the current average unit cost for that particular utility. Cost avoidance is the amount of money you avoided spending, in this case by taking action to save energy.
Total Cost Savings $1,042, –1,000,747.31= $41,916.60
Cost savings is the actual dollar difference between current year costs and the baseline year’s cost.
Red indicates an increase in utility rate

7. Accomplishments
When comparing (July-June) data to the baseline data. Electricity, natural gas, water and water/sewer usage are down. Producing a cost avoidance savings of $163,716 for the district.
Electrical usage has been reduced ( vs ) by 1,037,395 kWH. This is equivalent to keeping 715 metric tons of CO2 out of the atmosphere
Efficiency (energy usage/sq. ft.) has dropped from ( )
53.3 kBTU/Ft2 to ( ) 44.9 kBTU/Ft2.
Despite rate increases in three out of four utilities, KCS has lowered the utility operating cost by $41,916.
In the US, we account for 20% of the man made greenhouse gas emissions, with less than 5% of the world’s population.

8. Summary 2012-2013 vs. 2011-2012 Cost Avoidance Savings $70,403.58
Cost Avoidance Savings is the difference of this year’s utility usage, when compared to previous year ( ), times the current average unit cost for that particular utility. Cost avoidance is the amount of money you avoided spending, in this case by taking action to save energy.
Total Cost Savings $1,003, –1,000,747.31= $2,390.31
Cost savings is the actual dollar difference between current year costs and the previous year’s cost.
Red indicates an increase in utility rate
