Agenda

Illinois Energy NowPrograms & Funding

In 2007, legislation amended the Illinois Public Utilities Act and required that the State’s largest utility providers and the Department of Commerce & Economic Opportunity (DCEO) develop a portfolio of electric energy efficiency programs to meet legislative goals that reduce energy demand.

In 2009, legislation was passed to include natural gas energy efficiency programs to meet legislative reduction goals.

Illinois Energy Now is the portfolio of programs the Department of Commerce & Economic Opportunity offers to administer the electric and natural gas incentives for the public sector.

2012-2013 Public Sector Energy Efficiency Programs combine natural gas incentives with the former Public Sector Electric Efficiency Programs.

Program Year 4 (PY4) SummaryPublic Sector Energy Efficiency

Programs

PY 4 Preliminary Results

• Received 859 Public Sector applications*– Electric efficiency projects - 734– Natural gas efficiency projects – 125

– Elec. Energy Savings 159,328,142 kWh’s– Nat Gas Energy Savings 4,521,516 therms

• Anticipate number of applications to continue to grow especially in the natural gas territories as budgets continue to grow.

*Not including projects extended to next year or cancelled

PY4’s Successes

Aggregation Pilot Program DCEO Trade Ally Program Received 200 more applications than PY3 Strengthened partnerships with Universities,

Community Colleges, and State Associations Strong potential for achieving annual energy

savings goals.

Public Sector Energy Efficiency Programs

Where the public sector facility is located in Ameren Illinois or ComEd electric service areas, facility is eligible for electric efficiency incentives for those measures that produce electric savings. Measures include; lighting, electric HVAC equipment, motors, electric kitchen equipment. Where the public sector facility is located in Ameren Illinois, Nicor Gas, Peoples Gas or North Shore Gas natural gas service areas, facility is eligible for natural gas efficiency incentives for those measures that produce natural gas savings. Measures include; natural gas HVAC equipment, natural gas water heaters, natural gas kitchen equipment. Where the public sector facility is located in both a participating electric service area and natural gas service area, facility is eligible for both electric and natural gas efficiency incentives.
