4 Goals of the Plan 25% or Greater Energy Consumption Reduction Increase renewable/ sustainable energy sources Increase Use of Combined Heat and Power Reduce carbon-based energy input by 35% by 2020 4

5 2010 Energy Master Plan The rapid rise of energy costs in the intensive health care sector requires a strategic perspective on managing our energy usage and costs in the future. Our objective in the Energy Master Plan is to address: The increasing demand and cost for energy The volatile nature of the current energy market Our concern for global warming and long-term sustainability of resource consumption The impact of energy consumption on the delivery of critical healthcare service s 5

6 Energy Conservation Measures – $61M investment in 230 ECM’s yields 28% energy reduction – 3.7 year payback (27% annual return) Cogeneration – 33 MW total at 4 hospital & 1 research lab location – 7.8 year payback (13% annual return) Renewables – 10 MW of Onsite PV potential PHS Goals 6

7 2014 Energy Sources & Impacts 7 50% carbon based 33% r enewables 17% nuclear

8 Renewables Evaluated Tidal Energy Geothermal Biomass & Biofuel Wind Solar Hot Water Solar PV 8

9 Current Status Energy Conservation: 64% of 25% reduction goal (net 16% reduction). CHP: installing 10 MW now from 33 MW goal. PV: Issuing RFP for PV System at Assembly Row, continued evaluation of other sites with a preliminary potential of 10 MW for onsite generation. If these strategies are implemented by 2020, compared to 2008 base year, Partners will: - have reduced energy consumption by minimum of 28% - achieve minimum 50% renewable power (including hydro) - have reduced GHG emissions by minimum of 35% by 2020 9

10 Lessons Learned Motivated by the conviction that healthcare has an obligation to reduce energy consumption and its dependence on carbon-based fuels. Cannot rely on utilities to carry us to compliance with State mandated GHG reduction targets. Fed., State and utility incentives for renewables are not aligned nor all readily accessible for non-profits. Low and no-carbon CHP systems offer a good bridging technology as you increase your portfolio of renewables over time. Strategic renewable power procurement can make a significant difference in GHG emission. PV solar installations can assist on meeting revenue neutral GHG emissions reductions goals. 10
