6. Energy Exchange : Federal Sustainability for the Next Decade Savings Calculation (part 1) First determine these factors… 6 Savings equals…annual amount saved, adjusted for weather, adjusted for base square footage changes, with a deduction for ESPC or UESC debt repayment.

7. Energy Exchange : Federal Sustainability for the Next Decade Savings Calculations (part 2) Then place the factors into this equation… 7

8. Energy Exchange : Federal Sustainability for the Next Decade What did you consume in BTUs adjusted up or down from an average year based on weather changes and the square footage of your inventory. Takes into consideration your monthly base consumption amounts that are not weather dependent (the adjusted amounts are seasonal BTUs above monthly base consumption amounts). Final dollar amounts of retained savings are the negative BTUs differences multiplied by the adjusted utility commodity costs. 8 In Simple English

9. Energy Exchange : Federal Sustainability for the Next Decade Half of all monies (retained savings and utility incentives) are earmarked for the installation – Use of these funds is authorized by the Site Director or Base Commander – The funds are held at HQ DLA and sent to the installations in their quarterly funding allocations The other half of the monies are held at HQ and are distributed by the DLA Energy Manager, who often funnels the money back to the earning location How do you get the funds? 9

10. Energy Exchange : Federal Sustainability for the Next Decade What can you do with the funds? Of the base controlled 50%, funds can be used for: – Quality of Life improvements – Energy reduction incentive awards – Energy savings/cost avoidance minor construction projects – Morale support projects DLA at Susquehanna used their funds to build a solar domestic water heating system, upgrade the base bowling alley, and install point-of-use heaters controlled by motion detectors in warehouses that are kept at minimal temperatures DLA at Columbus used its funds to buy a boiler, install a VFD fan controller, buy J6 materials to support the EMCS and meter projects, and “seed money” to fund an energy survey. 10
