8. INNOVATIVE ENERGY MANAGEMENT BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS OFFICE Macquarie University entered the deregulation market in April 1997 for a one year trial. To do an effective comparison on pre deregulation and a new contract price, it is worth comparing the full 12 months periods - 1996 and 1998. Deregulation - Original Savings

9. INNOVATIVE ENERGY MANAGEMENT BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS OFFICE Deregulation - Original Savings YearElectrical Load (KW/h) Total CostCents per KW/h 199620,033,683$1,708,7458.53 1997 See Note 1 $1,226,337 199823,318,854$1,417,9596.08 Note 1:The change over year resulted in a drop in consumption, basically as a result of a new and confused industry. Billing data was not recorded correctly. This year combined pre-deregulated and deregulated charges.

10. INNOVATIVE ENERGY MANAGEMENT BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS OFFICE Electrical Supply Contract In 1997, the University negotiated a one year contract with Victorian based retailer Powercor. In 1998, the University renewed the contract for 10 years. University cushioned against rising energy costs for term of this contract. University expect to pay market rates from 2008 under renegotiated contract. Current rates are 29% below the market rates. In real terms – at least 100% increase in costs.

11. Retail Price Current 5.67 cents/kWh (inc GST) Retail increasess as per contract 40% Network Inreases 15% Increases due to metering charges 10% Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) 15% Compound increase to 10.84cents kWh (based on contract rates) After 30 June 2008, we are again vulnerable to market forces, which are currently 29% higher. Assume 20% increase in market price, retail price is expected to be greater than 13 cents kWh

20. Cogeneration Plant Catterpillar Gensets. Engines are V12 natural gas driven each producing 760kW of electrical power & 1mW of waste heat for recovery and production of chilled water at 4.5 0 Celsius for air conditioning.

21. Cogeneration Plant Heat Recovery Units Heat Recovery Units capture heat from engine exhaust & transfer into process water for chilled water production from Absorption chiller.

22. Cogen. Plant Absorption Chiller arrives for installation.Capacity 1230 kWr. Chiller is driven by recovered heat from engine exhaust gases. 98 0 C water recovered from exhaust and pumped to chiller.

23. Cogeneration Plant 3 x Fluid Coolers 3 x 1500 kW fluid coolers for dump heat. Situated on roof of existing library. Dump Heat will be reduced as waste heat is fully exploited possibly with proposed Aquatic Centre.

24. Cogeneration Plant Storage Tank Storage tank stands 22m high with a dia. Of 8.5m and a volume of 1.25million Litres. Tank is stratified type with temperatures at 4.5 0 C and 16.5 0 c.

26. Recognition Macquarie University was awarded the Sustainable Energy Development Authority (SEDA) Green Globe Award for 2001 in the category of Innovation in Cogeneration

28. Energy Savings By Synergy E6A/E3A E6A chillers connected to E3A 850,000 litre storage tank allowing chillers to charge tank at low night time tariffs and to discharge to loads during the day. A twofold benefit is attained as chillers run at maximum load at night. Chillers fully loaded are more energy efficient than part loaded A twofold benefit is attained as chillers run at maximum load at night. Chillers fully loaded are more energy efficient than part loaded. INNOVATIVE ENERGY MANAGEMENT BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS OFFICE
