1. CenterPoint Energy Healthcare Energy Efficiency Program (HEEP) CenterPoint Energy Healthcare Energy Efficiency Program (HEEP) November 2013

2. 2 22 Program Summary  Energy conservation program designed for the healthcare industry  Provides services to participants based on eligibility and customer preferences  Services may include benchmarking, energy assessments, incentive processing, etc.  Cash incentives paid directly to customers  Incentive rates are based on type of measure and services rendered

3. 2 33 Potential Customers  Medium Healthcare –Small Hospitals (<=300 beds) –Medical office buildings –Large clinics –Assisted living/ nursing homes  Small Healthcare –Small clinics –Doctor’s offices –Physical therapy

4. 2 44 Program Benefits – Customer  No financial obligation to participate in the program  No deposit required  Provides identification of energy conservation measures (ECMs)  Provides cash incentives for ECM implementation  Annual energy and cost savings  Minimal time required out of your busy schedule

5. 2 55 Program Steps  Application screening  Willdan benchmarks facility  Willdan discusses available services  Customer selects services  Willdan confirms potential ECMs  Customer implements selected ECMs  Post implementation inspection  Incentive processing

6. 2 66 Services – Healthcare  Facility benchmarking  Tier 1: Direct deemed  Tier 2: Concise energy assessment (e.g., small clinics, doctor’s offices, etc.)  Tier 3: Walk-thru energy assessment (e.g., large clinics, medical office buildings, etc.)  Tier 4: Comprehensive energy assessment (e.g., hospitals, assisted living, medical research facilities, etc.)  Tier 5: Measurement & Verification (e.g., hospitals, medical research facilities, etc.)

7. 2 77 Customized Services  Tier 1: Direct deemed –Customer has already identified ECMs, but needs incentives to proceed –Savings are calculated for standard replacement ECMs using deemed method  Tier 2: Concise energy assessment –Smaller facilities w/lower savings potential –Performed off-site using application and phone interview –Includes standard deemed savings measures only  Tier 3: Walk-thru energy assessment –Small – medium facilities w/reasonable savings potential –Basic study, performed using staff interviews, site visit and collected data –Includes deemed and custom capital expenditure measures  Tier 4: Comprehensive energy assessment –Larger facilities, higher than average EUI, high savings potential –Detailed study, performed using staff interviews, site visit and collected data –Includes capital expenditure and low cost/low payback operational measures  Tier 5: Measurement & Verification (M&V) –Custom capital expenditure measures with significant savings potential –Customer may request assistance in performing M&V
