1 Energy Management Opportunities to Reduce Your Impact to Air & Water LEED Accredited Professionals Scott Walters Principal Energy Engineer A&WMA Conference October 7, 2010 Presented by: Presented to:

2 LEED Accredited Professionals Agenda  Why conserve  Barriers to conservation  Low hanging fruit opportunities  Typical justifiable opportunities  Renewable energy role  Industry drivers  Example of innovative solutions  Presenter bio  Past results  Summary  Questions

3 LEED Accredited Professionals Why Conserve  Energy reduction and emissions and natural resources – Emissions, CO 2, SOX, NOX – Fuels – Capital – Operating costs  Water reduction and full benefits – Water – Waste water – Pumping energy – Operating costs

4 LEED Accredited Professionals Why Conserve So our grandchildren will be able to come see us!

5 LEED Accredited Professionals Barriers to Conservation  Facility culture  Past cheap energy  Production mindset for creating revenue  Maintenance budget constraints  Resistance to change  In the box thinking “We have always done it this way”

6 LEED Accredited Professionals Low Hanging Fruit Opportunities  Systems operating when not adding value  Lighting use (CFL’s, time clocks, occupancy sensors)  Temperature set points and set backs not to recommended standards  Programmable thermostats or energy management systems  Replace aerators (faucet spray adapters)  Compressed air pressure reduction  Commission or tune systems  Vending machine controls

7 LEED Accredited Professionals Typical Justifiable Opportunities  Adsil TM coating on condensers  Light fixture retrofit (T12-T8-T5, CFL, LED)  Variable speed drives  Replace old motors with premium efficiency motors  Replace old air conditioning equipment, boilers, or chillers with new premium efficiency equipment  Process part present switches  Modular system sequencing  Replace plumbing fixtures and flush valves  Temperature reset based on outdoor air

8 LEED Accredited Professionals Renewable Energy Role  Incentive driven  Region specific  Types range from – PV – Wind – Solar HW – Solar heat – Hydro including wave – Geothermal – Bio-conversion

9 LEED Accredited Professionals Industry Drivers  Aging infrastructure  Baseline utility use and cost  Fuel costs  Economic climate  Water and waste water costs  Pending carbon legislation

10 LEED Accredited Professionals Example of Innovative Solutions for Condenser Coils ADSIL (www.adsil.com)  Patented cleaning/coating process improves efficiency of system by 12% in inland applications  Chemically bonds with aluminum fins and prevents oxidation, preventing efficiency losses  Does not support mold growth (when sprayed on evaporator coils, fan, and housing)  Improves flow over condenser, evaporator, and improves heat transfer efficiency  MACTEC developed EER grading tool for USEPA MACTEC was chosen by USEPA to study and verify effects in hot/humid climate

11 LEED Accredited Professionals Adsil Two-year, Side-by- Side Test in PR Typical projects cost from $75 to $125 per ton and pay back in three years or less

12 LEED Accredited Professionals Tom applying Adsil to his Toyota

13 LEED Accredited Professionals Past Results  MACTEC has assisted customers in upgrading their facilities to be the most energy-efficient in the world – 52% savings DoD worldwide – 41% savings USPS nationwide – 43% savings State of Florida facilities – 37% Pratt & Whitney in CT  MACTEC has a recipe of over 123 Standard Energy Conservation Projects (ECP’s) to consider as savings opportunities for our clients  MACTEC has identified more than $77 million in energy savings

14 LEED Accredited Professionals  Lowers emissions, water use, and discharge  Low hanging fruit opportunities with little or no capital outlay  Saves valuable resources for future generations  Saves capital costs  Reduces operating costs  Global warming or not, it is the right thing to do! Summary – Why Conserve Energy and Water?
