ECI is one of two top CES partners who hasreceived status as part of their $10,000,000 Club. For the extent of turnkey services offered, ECI hasno other competition approved to provide services at this level. Competitors differ as it relates to typeof solution. Integrated energy solutions and timely, state-wide services places ECI in a position ofprominence within New Mexico. Andover and Honeywell would be considered the completionoutside of the Cooperative award.

$42,000,000

11. PUBLIC SECTOR SALES Overall public sector sales, excluding Federal Government, for last three (3) years;2009, 2009, 2011

$39,000,000

12. MARKET STRATEGY What is your strategy to increase market share?

State and local governments utilize vehicles such as University and Cooperative Agreements. TCPNis viewed in high regard within this market. ECI’s strategy is to use this TCPN award as a means topromote integrated services to this market. The Company is quite versed in Cooperative selling andwill utilize this experience and the energy savings potential which integration brings. Also, ECI’sbusiness affiliate Aircon works primarily with City and County entities within California. ECI will usethis association to establish relationships with new, California clients.

As an ESCO, ECI can offer energy conservation measures through integration with a savingsguarantee. ECI believes no effort to maximize efficiency is too small and will offer services andsolutions for any size project. ECI’s intent is to work with members to provide projects that arefunded through multiple Capital venues which can be accomplished within current budgets. ECI hasrepresented customers in finding Capital for Integrated Energy Efficiency Projects and will offerthese services to TCPN and its members.

13. MARKET PLACE POSITION What differentiates your company from competitors?

Page 27: ECI Facility Integration Technology

ENERGY CONTROL INC TAB 3

TCPN # 12-29 Facility Technology Integration April 26, 2012

The company market focus is in integrated building automation to achieve energy efficiency withinHVAC, DDC and special systems of which ECI has received “top 50 integrator”awards for multipleyears. ECI is the leading CES vendor in providing these services to New Mexico School Districtsand with this award will offer these services to additional states and government entities.

ECI is steadfast in its approach to provide the most intuitive, new and proven solutions to customersand this has led to collaborative initiatives with other Industry leaders. This culminates into nationalexpertise and systems knowledge at the hands of the TCPN member. The company is committed tonon-proprietary systems and is actively engaged in the development of open standards. ECIPresident, Jack McGowan provides speaking engagements on Smart Building solutions and is co-chair of the National Institute of Standards and Technology Building to Grid Expert Working Groupthat is developing standards for interactions between buildings and the electric grid. This leadershipon a national level translates to added value for TCPN members.

ECI focuses on delivering much more than simple environmental systems at a competitive price byusing technology in smarter, more efficient ways. Others lack the capacity to serve some clientsadequately because they do not engineer their systems to meet growing needs and sell on bestprice, which in the end causes the need for retrofit at additional costs. ECI is able to out-performother vendors because we are able to solve problems within multiple building systems byencompassing cable structure, network knowledge, HVAC, DDC controls, security and fire systemsall under one umbrella and have the knowledgeable staff on board to back those systems.

14. ONLINE CATALOG Describe your firm’s capabilities and functionality of your on-line catalog/ordering website.

ECI will initiate a TCPN member portal after contract award which will contain current list price bookson the offered product lines. Members will have the ability to verify pricing and services with a quicklink access to vendor and TCPN websites. As ECI is an independent Company offering bestsolutions and products for a given project it is difficult to offer on-line ordering solutions to covermultiple vendor equipment. ECI is not able to offer this service to TCPN members but does acceptemail, fax and phone orders.

15. CUSTOMER SERVICE Describe your company’s Customer Service Department (hours of operation, number ofservice centers, etc.)

Perhaps one of the greatest benefits to working with ECI is the commitment that the Company has toquality and the caliber of professional staff that are dedicated to the activity. The ECI operation is aworld class Energy Services and Integrated Systems installation and service organization. ECIfocuses on customer service and will develop a strong local presence with qualified field staff tosupport TCPN members in pursuing ECI Services.

ECI has established customer service locations and additional field technicians located throughoutthe State of New Mexico. It is ECI’s intent to add strategically located field technicians and work withpartners to offer additional service locations within adjacent states. To provide seamless services,ECI’s Corporate Office in Rio Rancho serves as a hub to manage field technicians and assure timelyresponse to requests.

GREEN INITIATIVES

•We're committed to helping to build a cleaner future!According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the world population is expanding at a mind-boggling rate. The world reached 1billion people in 1800; 2 billion by 1922; and over 6 billion by 2000. It is estimated that the population will swell to over 9billion by 2050. That means that if the world’s natural resources were evenly distributed, people in 2050 will only have 25%of the resources per capita that people in 1950 had.The world has a fixed amount of natural resources - some of which are already depleted. So as population growth greatlystrains our finite resources, there are fewer resources available. If we intend to leave our children and grandchildren withthe same standard of living we have enjoyed, we must preserve the foundation of that standard of living. We save forcollege educations, orthodontia, and weddings, but what about saving clean air, water, fuel sources and soil for futuregenerations?As our business grows, we want to make sure we minimize our impact on the Earth's climate. So we’re taking every stepwe can to implement innovative and responsible environmental practices throughout TCPN to reduce our carbon footprint,reduce waste, promote energy conservation, and ensure efficient computing and much more. To that effort, we askrespondents to provide their companies environmental policy and/or green initiative.

ECI’s business strategy centers on smart-clean-green solutions, and this philosophy manifests indaily business practices. ECI recycles paper, plastic and aluminum and asks that all employeesminimize paper wastes. Draft documents and internal communications are passed electronically.Proposals are presented on recycled paper. Internal copies are kept electronically. Green meansmore than customer deliverables at ECI.

ECI is among the first Energy Service companies in the U.S. to develop expertisewith Smart Grid technology. ECI analyzes electricity consumption profiles and canengineer technology and Internet-based systems to optimize energy consumption.Technology solutions focus on Demand Side Management and other strategies to lessen a facilitiesenergy signature. ECI’s CEO is Chairman Emeritus of the Department of Energy GridWiseArchitecture Council, a committee of industry leaders whose goal is to bring technology standardsand national attention to the Smart Grid. Efficient use of electricity will reduce customer energycosts and carbon footprints and will also produce a more reliable electric grid enterprise to supportgrowing demand. www.gridwiseac.org

By applying building intelligence and communication technologies,building owners are able to manage energy and control costs. Doingthis on a larger scale — multiple buildings and utilities communicate,anticipate, and avoid power interruptions that can debilitate thenational grid system and costs consumers $180 billion per year. ECIserves as the Buildings Champion for the Galvin Electricity Initiative.The Mission is to create a power system which is environmentallysound, resilient, and fuel-efficient and that empowers consumers. www.galvinpower.org/

under one unified umbrella, seamless control is possible. Customers gain interoperability of legacyHVAC systems along with other building operations for end-to-end integration of all systems. Oursolutions offer cutting edge control and feature “True Building Automation Standards”. The storageand import capabilities of data within an Energy Management System can only be realized within thedelivery system of the reporting, management, and access of information.

The examples below are given as evidence of ECI’s innovation and functionality experience inproviding design/build integrated systems. ECI and its product Partners engage in collaborativeefforts to design and customize systems for special application.

IMPLEMENTATION EXAMPLE A great example of integrated systems would be the Summit atCottonwood office building which earned the first Buildy Award for best integration project. TheBuildy Awards were designed to increase awareness of the benefits to whole building integration,and to honor North American facilities that demonstrate the vision of networked building systemsand strategies. This means effectively integrating a wide array of building systems and enablingoperations over corporate IT infrastructures. The integration featured DDC to the zone level, accesscontrol, water-source heat pumps and a diverse set of special systems.

The Summit Office Building system revealed how networking diverse systems could beaccomplished: integrating legacy and new equipment with controls, unifying oversight of HVAC andlife safety, along with security, data networking, IT, and even wireless access for streaming audioand video. The sophisticated system applies BACnet DDC at the boiler, cooling tower, and everyheat pump. ECI performed a multi-system cost analysis and offered a guarantee on systemperformance, creating building efficiency and operational costs savings over the buildings life span.ECI worked in concert with the building architect to create a smart, clean, green facility.

INTEGRATED SYSTEMS: Access was the first security technology integrated; yet the task wassimplified by using the DDC systems’capability for access control of exterior and interior doors. Thenext step was to add 24/7 video surveillance for security, with pan/tilt/zoom cameras and virtualtripwire software technology. The cameras offer auto iris control along with the ability to switch fromcolor to black and white for better nighttime imaging. This was a major enhancement in buildingfunctionality. Adding access control was straightforward because most DDC manufacturers haveadded that functionality to their base systems. This means the same programming tools and dataprotocols can be used to simplify design and installation. Adding this video security system offeredmuch more value for the owner, but was more technically complex. Digital video recorders (DVR)were integrated to allow for migration of data up to a corporate LAN and over the Internet. Thelatest generation of DVR is really a server with ports for 16 cameras, a 480-gigabyte hard drive forvideo archival, and on-board read/write compact disk drives to offload important data. These serverscan also upload data to secondary storage via the LAN and the Internet. The DVRs can detectmotion in the camera view and trigger alarms but, like all motion detection, this functionality is limitedand prone to false alarms. To significantly improve intrusion detection, ECI integrated sophisticatedMATE security software, which was developed in Israel, and is capable of creating virtual tripwires. Avirtual tripwire is a software line drawn across the camera’s field of vision to identify, for example, aproperty boundary. This software can also establish protected areas, track rate of speed ordirection, and perform facial recognition scans that can be integrated with access control. ECI hasdeveloped an integration that allows for camera images to be streamed via wireless high-speedInternet to tablet PCs in a police officer’s or a security guard’s car. This allows officers to be mobileand still receive alarms. Further, they can see intruders and track their movements, making itpossible to choose the ideal moment for apprehension. With the pan/tilt/zoom function, cameras cantrack intruders and zoom in for close-ups that can be streamed to another location for identification.

The fire technology is a tri-water system using the condenser water loop to the heat pumps forsprinklers. The fire system is not true data integration. It is a proprietary fire network protocol usedwhen multiple panels are installed. There is a modem dial out to notify a monitoring center in theevent of alarm, and there is limited data sharing via physical DDC point interface to monitor watertemperature, pressure, and other conditions. ECI can provide evidence of Integration knowledgethrough the recently installed Fire Alarm system at Albuquerque Academy. Addressable fire panels

interface to communication systems through a Notification System Workstation. Standard protocolswithin the customized program trigger messages and alerts throughout the campus.

The Summit building Ethernet LAN is the backbone for all data communications, but the Internet isthe key to integration. Internet communications are implemented via T1 physical datacommunication lines, as well as via Wireless Fidelity (WI-FI) high-speed Internet. At Summit, Internetcommunication utilizes “.NET”a Microsoft solution for Web services. .NET technology enables thecreation and use of XML-based applications, processes, and websites as services that share andcombine information and functionality with each other by design, on any platform or smart device, toprovide tailored solutions. .Net can be used to achieve such Web services as a building Internetportal. XML and SOAP services can be tailored to building managers’needs, and canbe fed into a single, integrated experience. The Summit also made use of WI-FIfor individual user interface via access points or hot spots for dashboard interface.WI-FI was used for point-to-point Internet protocol tunneling between The Summit andother sites. This allows Energy Control, a building tenant, to monitor, access, andassist customers with control attributes or troubleshooting. Video and data werestreamed to sites over 12 miles away with a high-speed Internet connection. ECIoffers Web-hosted services for customers, and is also the ISP for building tenants. Data security isimportant for an integration of Summit’s scale, and it required a significant effort to address facilitydata protection. IPSEC or Internet Protocol Security technology with 3-DES data encryption isdeployed to ensure that all interactions between the system, the dashboard, and the Web aresecure.

MANAGEMENT & CONTROL ECI performs facility management and security monitoring for the Summitbuilding since its construction. ECI’s monitoring center for customer facility management systems islocated in this state of the art, intelligent building. ECI is able to provide remote management, controland system alerts through the monitoring center for customer systems.

Systems established and programmed by ECI for alarm notification are generally based on alarmimportance. When a priority alarm is initiated, a notification is capable of being sent to an emailaddress, phone, text message or any combination. Low importance trouble logs or reviewed andfollowed up on with the customer through set guidelines.

ECI’s custom Dashboard is a tool to develop, manage, andcontrol energy initiatives and make informed decisions oncurrent status and future measures. ECI will evaluate memberneeds and select a Dashboard from one of several optionsincluding: ebiz, Delta, Tridium and others. This allows the userto control integrated systems, review energy consumption andset desired performance guidelines to determine effectivenessof energy initiatives or review cost per square foot.

Dashboards are designed to monitor and control building systems from across town or across thecontinent. Facilities can be set to send alarms to ECI’s monitoring center 24/7. These trouble logsare reviewed to recognize improper operation of mechanical and electrical equipment at thecustomer site. Through customer-set parameters ECI will take corrective actions or relay concerns toaddress system issues. This can be on a case by case basis or a set process for low or high levelcorrective action.

The more robust the building automation, the more effective the results. Converting terabytes ofenergy and building information is a major challenge and ECI can deliver systems designed tochange data into knowledge. The user can see an individual or building carbon footprint, see howweather affects the building, review equipment efficiency, etc. Easy manipulation of touch screens ormonitors bring up building mechanical equipment, lighting, or temperatures and allow staff totroubleshoot problems effectively. Users are able to manage sustainability in real time with easyscreen interaction. Benchmarks are established to evaluate building performance.

ECI can offer members any requested parameters for reporting, monitoring and managing FacilityManagement Systems. ECI has experience with the installation of sub meters and sensors to

Page 92: ECI Facility Integration Technology

ENERGY CONTROL INC TAB 5

TCPN # 12-29 Facility Technology Integration April 26, 2012

monitor and control building power and automated systems down to the device. ECI providesadvanced analytical capability (including energy usage statistics, energy costs, and greenhouse gasemissions) that enables comparisons of historical and real time usage patterns across Facilities,Areas and equipment. This also includes the capability of tracking systematic or operational changesfor buildings through an event & tasks logging/tracking database tables associated with energyusage and is mapped into trends analysis output tables and charts to help verify energy and financialimpact of specific changes.ebiz is the ECI term for, Energy Business Intelligence, a secure, maintained system concept thatallows engineers and management secure access to every component of the organization's energysystems within each of the various buildings/facilities, and become completely accessible from acentralized location and or remotely with no added burden to the organization's IT staff, engineers ormanagement. Technology from numerous vendors can be deployed for this function.

By implementing this solution, members will utilize the continual improvement process to manageenergy resources and incorporate energy management into everyday business operations andstrategies. This process encompasses both the management and the technical elements ofmanaging energy. The effective management of energy requires both to be present and integrated.

The advanced "smart" meter and sensor net enables engineers to effectively "drill down and seeinside the walls”of a given facility throughout the organization's multiple worldwide locations. Real-time monitoring, management and control of the unified building systems greatly enhance localengineers and managers ability to:

oMonitor, measure, manage and control energy use and cost – in kW and dollars. The EEMSschedules various operations and energy usage to minimize local utility tariffs and demandcharges

oMonitor, manage and control equipment maintenance, malfunction, failure, downtime and otherenergy system equipment related matters. The EEMS will identify, detect and send alertsimmediately (automatic notices by telephone, PDA, email, text, etc.), allowing for quick actionand diagnosis

oModel operational strategies to reduce emissions and energy usage (minimizing local utilitytariffs and demand charge dynamics)

IMPLEMENTATION EXAMPLE An example of an Energy Intelligence Smart Grid System would be theproject at the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque. This UNM integration included two phases ofa Department of Energy sponsored project, which consisted of analyzing electrical energy usage forUNM’s Main campus, and more specifically, the Mechanical Engineering facility which utilizes thermalstorage and solar energy, as well as Smart Grid technology. Thermal solar panels located on the rooffeed hot water to custom, super-insulated storage tanks through a solar absorption chiller. The chillertakes 190◦F water and converts it to 42◦F chilled water which is used to cool the building.

The intended purpose is to estimate the potential of the UNM campus to respond to tariffs andprograms operated by the utility based upon current conditions on the electric grid by altering its energyconsumption characteristics. The Enterprise Energy Management System captures near real-timeenergy data from 65 of the 200 buildings on the campus. EEMS converts building information data into“key performance indicators”(KPI) or knowledge tools to assess energy performance, carbon footprintand real-time building performance. UNM represents close to 2% of the local Grids total load. Thissystem also integrates building automation systems in 15 buildings which include demand responsesequences. Using these sequences UNM can alter consumption and respond to conditions on the gridbased on utility programs by reacting to and predicting power consumption during high demand timeperiods to help meet sustainability needs (by providing power to the grid through its co-generation plant,storage of utility products, etc.). The increased level of grid-interoperability is substantial and the projectwill serve as a model to further technology for future smart-grid facilities.

The Mechanical Engineering Building along with 14 other buildings is designed to collect energy usedetail down to the equipment level. Fifty additional buildings bringing the total to approximately4,956,172 square feet, are metered to analyze electric, steam, and chilled water use for the building.Programmable Logic Controllers communicate with MODBUS protocol through converters in each

building. The GridWise project consisted of sub-metering for approx 43% of the campus buildings, thesoftware & monitoring equipment for EEMS, and software design for EEMS communication to the MEBuilding Automation System.

UNM’s central campus can draw approximately 20 MW of electricity at peak. Part of which is generatedlocally using a 6 MW gas turbine installed during a 2001 renovation at the Ford Utilities Center. Thecampus energy system is capable of producing electricity and recovering waste heat by producingsteam. This can be used for heating or for chilled water (through absorption units) pending on theseason. The co-generation plant currently meets approximately 40% of the campus electricity needsand 65% of heating needs.

UNM estimates 3 MW of possible load shedding with the approximate doubling if VFDmotor control and lighting control were included in each building. System load shed isestimated by analyzing electrical consumption, the co-generation plant capability -heating and chilled water production, mechanical equipment systems and minimalacceptable occupant discomfort levels. Complete assessment details are available forpublic viewing through the US Department of Commerce; National Technical

This project has been featured in articles in Industry magazines which can be viewed from the ECIwebsite at www.energyctrl.com and has also received the Contracting Business design/build award.

BUILDING ENVIRONMENTS ECI places an emphasis on creating improved building environments whilelowering operating and energy costs. This is accomplished through a myriad of strategies includinglife cycle analyses and repair evaluations with the primary goal of producing a positive return oninvestment.

The building envelope generally relates to a long-term ROI and is not necessarily a component ofintegrated system projects. An example of long term projects would be the architectural system of abuilding, which typically involves long paybacks due to high cost. Normally such projects are notfeasible; walls, for example, are responsible for only 17% of the heat loss in a typical building. As aresult, making costly upgrades to wall systems is generally not considered when choosing mostadvantageous energy-saving integration upgrades.

IMPLEMENTATION EXAMPLE Another example of experience with integration would be CloudcroftMiddle/Elementary School. ECI has performed projects which include systems analysis, buildingenvelope repairs, telecommunications, lighting systems, HVAC, fire protection, access control,intercom modifications and security systems.

ECI was asked to analyze control issues at the Elementary & Middle School Facility. ECI was able toascertain their main problem was due to an improperly sized boiler. ECI worked with a manufacturerto determine the most efficient boiler for the school while considering the elevation along with BTUrequirements.

ECI provided Prime Contractor and mechanical/electrical services to CMS for a HVAC systemretrofit, plumbing, fire protection, cabling Infrastructure, and roofing. CMS was having major HVACproblems from an incorrectly designed heating system. ECI was able to correct the problems for theDistrict. The system operates at an astonishing 90% efficiency. ECI replaced non-functioningmechanical equipment, added gym cooling, and added a Direct Digital Control system (DDC)utilizing Delta Controls BACnet®. This provides the facility operators a networked system controlstation to review and modify system functions and temperatures in all the schools. ECI identifiedroofing and plumbing issues and executed corrective repairs. The roof venting had been improperlyinstalled at initial construction.

ECI installed a VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) telephone system, which is enabled to call out to911 and designated staff in case of an emergency. Fiber-optic cables run underground to provide acommon link between schools. Upgrades to the fire protection system included connectivity to voicesystems. This system interoperability increases staff responsiveness to all the schools. In additionECI has also provided web-based surveillance.

Energy Management ECI employs certified and trained staff to commission, manage, and monitorintegrated solutions. ECI has performed historical data analysis, M&V services and performancereporting on efficiency measures. This has included multi-year capture of utility consumption data,baseline determination, data analysis, ENERGY STAR tracking and program activation, emissionsevaluation, and customized energy management systems.

Turnover of an installation project requires the testing and commissioning of systems be performedin the presence of the customer and reflect the designed parameters. ECI finds best results areachieved when steps are taken to ensure the sharing of knowledge has been executed effectively.

A long term successful project must fulfill five major objectives that will be the primary focus of designfor a TCPN program. Retrofit projects must be:

a. Cost Effective: A project must be cost effective to receive further consideration. Experience of theanalyst and experience of the team contractors is Key in the development of measures. Valueengineering begins the concept to maximize project value and minimize expense.

b. Workable: Only proven technology will be considered for application. The simplest design toaccomplish the function is typically the most cost effective and easiest to operate.

c. Understandable: Long term understanding of what the Member is trying to accomplish and how itis to be done prevents mis-operation, which in many cases, can be counter-productive.

d. Maintainable: A Design with maintenance and servicing in mind by involving operating personnel.This is very necessary to maintain peak efficiencies and generally will not add cost to a project.

e. Flexible: While all the above criteria are important, one objective is the most important: Systemand equipment must be able to adapt to future requirements.

Design cannot be created in a vacuum, as if only one measure is being implemented. Each measure orgroup of measures must be impacted back to the central plant to determine the overall effect of theproject. Specific operational expertise and product preference will be incorporated into each design. Allof the above design criteria will become part of the training program established for any project.

TRAINING ECI believes proper training and maintenance is critical to the success of a project. Thisapplies to ECI staff as well as that of the customer. ECI will assist members in performing Industrystandard practices and maintenance of equipment to achieve peak performance and optimizeoperations. Training is a vital element of any project as it is essential to ensure that equipmentoperates as designed. ECI is committed to sell, deliver and provide support to TCPN and itsmembers including extensive training and technical support services. ECI has instituted a programover the years which, encompasses comprehensive training within installation and service projects.With ECI’s training capabilities and a comprehensive on-site project management training program,member staff will increase their knowledge and skill level in the operation of the facility’s equipment.ECI has nationally recognized training resources that teach seminars for trade associations andprivate organizations as well as to direct customers.

For construction installation, training occurs at time of substantial completion and includes, but is notlimited to; mechanical and electrical equipment operation and maintenance, Dashboardconfiguration & control sequence review, and related topics. Of key importance with Service trainingis that this training will be scheduled at the customers’request to address any components of theservice repair/retrofit. The main goal is to ensure proper operation and maintenance awareness toextend equipment effectiveness and longevity. Regular training sessions can be made an integralpart of any service agreement.

ECI offers support service agreements as well as full maintenance programs and follows Industrypractices and manufacturer guidelines to ensure equipment longevity.

ECI developed software specific to the needs of the COA to ensure smooth integration of diversesystems and enable the City to monitor and manage energy functions in order to optimize energyefficiency. This is principally an integration task that involves knowledge-based system interaction toensure that the City is able to demonstrate the effectiveness of energy management or reductiontechnology. ECI has incorporated technologies such as the Transient Energy System SimulationTool (TRNSYS) and the Global Energy Management System (GEMS) to offer the COA mechanismsin which to manipulate and analyze real time energy use. The Alvarado Transportation Terminal andPlaza del Sol will be the first facilities to gain from this collaboration. The goal is for COA to see theircarbon footprint and take measures in real time to reduce their energy consumption.

ECI’s knowledge of full system integration lends itself to creating ever more efficient means ofcontrolling building automation systems. By inclusion of a Demand Response program event,building operators or their automated control systems make adjustments to building operations withthe goal of reducing the building’s electric load during times of the electric system’s peak electricusage and peak cost cycles. Smart Grid sequences create optimal building operation. ECI installeda Delta Controls direct, digital control (DDC) system to create easy functionality and systemresponsiveness. The existing mechanical system useful life was weighted against efficiencycapabilities to determine what offered the best return on investment to the City. Determinationswere in keeping with expectations of energy reduction goals. The use of Variable Frequency Drives(VFD’s) on supply and return fans offered a great return on investment to the City. Along with otherefficiency efforts such as curbing fan use during peak cost cycles and better insulated windows, theCity can use measurement and verification data to confirm their efforts have materialized into realsavings.

Acting on behalf of the City of Albuquerque, ECI established interconnection to the local utilitymeters and installed sub-meters with a BACnet interface. ECI engineers created points to tie theDelta Controls BACnet into the existing automation system.

There is no doubt that energy is a topic of continuous, sometimes contentious debate in the United States. Oil prices rise ever higher, fracking gives the future of natural gas pause, coal sparks conversation on pollution, and the recent tsunami in Japan highlights potential issues with nuclear power.

There is one company in the U.S., however, that is at the forefront of a movement within the industry to make the nation’s energy consumption more efficient, and therefore put less stress on fossil fuels. That company is Energy Control Inc. (ECI), headquartered in Rio Rancho, N.M., with a branch office in Las Cruces.

ECI was founded in 1976, and under the leadership of President Jack McGowan the company has been providing energy engineering and building control services since its inception. In the past three-plus decades the company has become a premiere, comprehensive integrator of environmental comfort, security/access control, microgrid and intelligent building technology. It provides its clients with technology-driven design-build solutions for commercial buildings, educational institutions and government and industrial projects. The company specializes in the management and integration of building automation systems.

In 2010 ECI became a part of the Denver, Colo.-based OpTerra Energy Group, which uses its combined regional resources to provide clean energy conservation options to key markets. OpTerra’s best practices fall in line with what has always been a core focus of ECI, acquired because the company is already a market leader.

“We’ve created a business model around energy-related projects. We design-build our projects and we work with third-party financing to make those projects a reality,” explains McGowan. “Our vision going forward is that the energy element in the commercial building industry is in a significant state of change. We are at the forefront of implementing smart-grid activities.”

Doing Laundry While You Sleep

A smart grid, for those that aren’t familiar with the term, is an intelligent monitoring system that analyzes and keeps track of the electricity demands flowing between energy generators and consumers. It has the capability to efficiently and intelligently integrate renewable electricity, like wind or solar, as well. Using information gathered on the times and amounts of system behavior, administrators can automate multi-building facilities to shut down non-essential machinery during peak hours, among many other functions.

For example, in a university residential complex washing machines could be set to only operate during off-peak hours. This results in a reduced economic and environmental impact, as well as an improvement in system reliability, quality and security. McGowan acts as Chairman Emeritus of the Department of the Energy GridWise Architecture Council, a committer of industry leaders whose goal is to bring technology standards and national attention to the smart grid, which McGowan believes to be a major facet of the energy industry’s future.

“John Chambers, the CEO of Cisco [a $40 billion company] said he thinks that smart grids are going to

Page 108: ECI Facility Integration Technology

be even bigger than the Internet. The key to a smart grid is that you have to understand buildings. We do basic types of energy-efficiency projects, like changing overhead lighting to LED [Light-Emitting Diodes] and high-efficiency HVAC systems, but we want to bundle that all together so the building operates more efficiently as a whole,” reveals McGowan.

ECI’s overriding business philosophy is to develop long-term relationships through offering organizational effectiveness that reduces energy costs for clients. This is done by taking into account how entire facilities can be managed through LAN and Ethernet connections, allowing everything from security and and alarm to lighting and HVAC to be more efficient solutions to the problem of how to optimize building performance and minimize carbon footprint. Designing and deploying Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED)-minded technologies for safe and comfortable environments, ECI is a driving force that can increase efficiency across an entire campus.

ECI’s commitment to redefining how energy is managed in this country has drawn the company praise from like-minded companies. For example, Ashcraft Mechanical Inc. worked with ECI on a ground-source heat pump system during construction of the Amy Biehl school in Santa Fe, N.M., and Ashcraft’s Tim Gormley applauds ECI’s efforts to lead new technology adoption. “They’re redefining the market … being at the forefront of design considerations, and taking that through the practical applications,” he says. “They’re active at a regional and national level, participating in forums at an international level and putting concepts into action. As they get acceptability of the systems they are recommending, we are evolving our technical abilities to be able to implement those concepts.”

Award-winning Project

ECI has worked on projects from coast to coast, but a recent project the company completed at the University of New Mexico (UNM) in Albuquerque, N.M., has been generating a lot of press. The university is one of Public Service Co. of New Mexico’s (PNM) largest consumers of energy, so the university, PNM and ECI collaborated on a project that would tie all of UNM’s 200-plus buildings onto a smart grid.

“UNM provided us with an ideal smart-grid test case, because it already had so much smart technology in place, and it has some solar systems and natural gas generators that can produce more than six megawatts of electricity on campus,” McGowan was quoted as saying. ECI helped UNM assess and upgrade smart technology on campus and helped build the web portal that integrated the monitoring system with PNM’s computers.

The design-build project leveraged the existing technologies with new technology and the Internet-based monitoring.

Page 109: ECI Facility Integration Technology

An “energy business intelligence tool” from Hunt Energy IQ, called GEMS (Global Energy Management and Sustainability), provides full information for over 100 buildings on campus and is reported in real-time. Energy data from 84 other buildings is reported in 20-minute intervals and can report current energy consumption or cost-per-square foot.

“This system provides an intuitive management tool for building owners to understand the impact of energy and to provide for real-time management of building performance,” McGowan told a local journal. “The system also integrates multiple BACnet [Building and Automation Control network] and legacy automation systems to provide seamless interface to building operations. This smart campus can use this tool to manage energy use, energy cost, and its carbon footprint.”

This project, which was awarded Contracting Business Journal’s 2009 Project of the Year Award, stands as a notable example of ECI's fundamental approach toward funding projects. “After the markets melted down, funding became a very big issue for us and everyone else in the industry,” explains McGowan. “We went back to our core, which is finding a third party to provide the financing. The UNM project was funded by the Department of Energy and PNM. Our goal on every project is to have a self-funded project with no money upfront and we provide our customers with a revenue stream from the energy savings.”

McGowan, a renowned author published regularly in industry magazines and websites such as ASHRAE and Automatedbuildings.com, continues to lead ECI in its initiatives to implement

and bring attention to smart energy practices. Focusing on projects that deliver quality performance and high-efficiency systems functionality, resulting in a sound investment for all clients, Energy Control Inc. continues to lead the way in combining current technologies to alleviate the impact of buildings on the energy crisis. •

infrastructure that has not had major technologicaladvancement in a nearly a half century. It isexacerbated by a U.S. Department of Energy(DOE)-projected 40% increase in electric demandover the next 20 years that will cost utilities aprojected $3 trillion. That includescap and trade, which is part of the third element ofthis perfect storm: climate change.”

Thus was born GridWise™, an initiative createdunder the DOE Office of Electricity and EnergyReliability. The focus of GridWise is on stimulatithe development and adoption of an intelligentenergy system, or smart grid, to make the U.S.electric system more reliable and efficient.

UNM was an ideal site for aGridWise project because ofongoing technologyinvestments the universityhad made. UNmechanical engineeringbuilding in the 1980sequipped with solar thermaland thermal storage, but thesystems had fallen intodisrepair and were notoperating. In fact, AndreaMammoli, Ph.D., associateprofessor of engineering atUNM, stepped

team of academics and facility engineers to workwith ECI on the design and construction of thisproject.

Smart People, Smart Grid

has not had major technologicaladvancement in a nearly a half century. It isexacerbated by a U.S. Department of Energy

projected 40% increase in electric demandover the next 20 years that will cost utilities aprojected $3 trillion. That includes the impact ofcap and trade, which is part of the third element ofthis perfect storm: climate change.”

Thus was born GridWise™, an initiative createdunder the DOE Office of Electricity and EnergyReliability. The focus of GridWise is on stimulatingthe development and adoption of an intelligentenergy system, or smart grid, to make the U.S.electric system more reliable and efficient.

UNM was an ideal site for aGridWise project because ofongoing technologyinvestments the universityhad made. UNM had built amechanical engineeringbuilding in the 1980sequipped with solar thermaland thermal storage, but thesystems had fallen intodisrepair and were notoperating. In fact, AndreaMammoli, Ph.D., associateprofessor of engineering atUNM, stepped up to lead a

team of academics and facility engineers to workwith ECI on the design and construction of thisproject. The university had also invested in a smartmeter system, a district heating and cooling plantwith power generation capability of eightmegawatts of combined heat and power, andnumerous automation and integration technologyprojects over several decades.

The advent of smart grid, according to McGowan,presented an opportunity for a truly cutting-edgeDesign/Build energy project, and the ultimate GreenBuilding system. Using this rationale, ECI wassuccessful in acquiring around $600,000 in pre-stimulus DOE funding, partially matched by UNM

The site's “ultimate”green building is — notsurprisingly — the mechanical engineeringbuilding. As part of this project, ECI's team rebuiltthe solar thermal system with vacuum tubecollectors and 400,000 gallons of thermal storage inthe building. The project completely upgraded thesystem, added a 200-ton absorption chiller, andconnected the building to the campus chilled waterloop. As a result of the work in just this onebuilding, the project can actually take the entirebuilding “off the grid”for cooling, with theexception of some fan and pump loads. CentennialEngineering, the newest building on campus, wasdesigned for optimum energy performanceincluding a connection to the thermal storage loopfrom the mechanical energy building.“The total campus project shows the nextgeneration of smart building/smart grid strategiesfor energy management and load management, tosupport the power grid.

Inspiring Future GenerationsMammoli says working with McGowan and theteam from ECI has helped him see the real-world,practical applications of the theories that underliethe smart grid. And while no one really knowsexactly what a city-wide smart grid is going to looklike, or how it will ultimately function, putting oneon a college campus is the right thing to do.“The campus is like a small city, so it's veryexciting to look at the potential of smart grids, andto think that someday we'll say this is one of theplaces where it all started,”Mammoli says.Mammoli is not the only one excited by the

technology. “One of the things I really enjoyedabout working with ECI is that doing practicalthings like this on buildings and energy systemsreally fires up students,”he says.“There are a lot of students that are really interestedin this topic, and I think the interaction with ECIhas been instrumental in sparking that interest. Thisis where the people who are going to be doing thistype of work in the future are going to see it.”

Using technology to improve the use of energy and create a better environment

Energy Control grows profits with smart buildingBY KEVIN ROBINSON-AVILA NMBF STAFF

Jack McGowan is helping to create acompletely new paradigm in the world ofbuilding management.

As chairman of the national GridWiseArchitectural Council, McGowan is contri-buting to the design of a national strategy tocut energy waste in buildings across the boardwhile strengthening the country’s electric grid.

In the process, McGowan is generating a lotmore potential business for his New Mexicofirm, Energy Control Inc. (ECI), which designs“smart buildings” that run more efficientlywith less energy. This fall, McGowan expectsto sign ECI’s first out-of-state contracts sincethe business launched in 1975.

“We’re a New Mexico company thatfocuses on the New Mexico market but, as aresult of my work at the national level, we’rebeing approached by large companies thatwant to use our services,” McGowan says.“We’re poised to expand outside New Mexicofor the first time. That’s a major milestone forthe company.”

Even without leaving the state, ECI hasearned a glowing reputation nationally thanksto its success in redesigning buildings aroundNew Mexico. The company has received twonational “Buildy Awards”since 2004 for itssmart-building designs from Builconn, anorganization that promotes fully integratedbuildings. SDM Magazine, a trade publication,consistently recognizes ECI as one of the Top100 System Integrators in North America.

McGowan himself was admitted to theInternational Energy Managers Hall of Famein 2003 by the Association of EnergyEngineers.

“He’s a national leader on the issue ofenergy efficiency,” says Mayor MartinChávez. “He commands respect in thisindustry.”

Karen Cook, president of the sustainableeconomic development consultancy EECOMInc., says McGowan has been a driving forcein Albuquerque efforts to promote greenbuildings.

“He’s working nationally to connect smartgrids with smart buildings, and to bring thatinitiative to New Mexico,”Cook says. “UnderMayor Ch ávez, Albuquerque is becoming anational leader in the sustainable energy arena,and Jack has contributed a lot to that.”

McGowan is the only New Mexicanappointed to the 13-member GridWise Coun-cil, which the Department of Energy formed in

2003 after rolling blackouts occurred on theEast Coast.

The Council aims to draw government andindustry together to create an “intelligent”national grid that can broker energy suppliesbased on customer need, strategically targetingdelivery shutdowns when the grid isoverloaded.

For that to work, buildings across the boardmust become more energy efficient, with fullyintegrated computer controls that allowmanagers to easily redirect scarce resources asneeded.

With McGowan’s help, the DOE hasgranted $600,000 for a pilot-demo project atthe University of New Mexico that will use asolar energy system to save electricity andallow Public Service Co. of New Mexico, attimes, to take an entire building off the grid.

“With smart buildings and an intelligentgrid, PNM can look at customer demand forenergy to more efficiently distributedelectricity,”McGowan says.

In April, with encouragement fromMcGowan, Ch ávez became the first mayor

nationwide to sign the new GridWiseConstitution.

When this initiative moves forward acrossthe country, many won’t know who the peoplewere that made it happen,”Chávez says. “Jackis one of those people.”

As president of ECI, McGowan has alreadymade it happen quite effectively in buildingsthroughout New Mexico.

The company, originally created byengineer A. Bruce Cantrell, was mostly a sub-contractor for heating and cooling controlsystems until 2001, when McGowan joinedthe firm.

McGowan brought with him expertise in“systems integration”, which creates smartbuildings by connecting and automating allbuilding management ― from heating and air conditioning to lighting, security and fireprevention ― under a single, online computer umbrella. Under ECI’s integrated systems,building technicians can control temperatures,security cameras and all other systems withthe stroke of a computer button, from virtuallyanywhere in the world.

“That means it’s available for managementand communication through the Internetanytime, anywhere,”McGowan says.

ECI has set up such systems for public andcommercial buildings across the state, such asthe Heart Hospital of New Mexico, AlbuquerqueAcademy, Don Chalmers Ford, New MexicoState University and many K-12 publicschools.

Under McGowan’s leadership, companyrevenue has grown from $3.2 million in 2003to just over $10 million in 2006. McGowanprojects $12 million in sales this year.

“We’ve gone from being a subcontractor onjobs to being the prime contractor for energysystems,”McGowan says. “The key to ECI’sgrowth is our consultative approach withclients. We provide customized solutions.”

Cantrell retired in 2004 from ECI, althoughhe remains on the board. As majorityshareholder, McGowan now controls the firm;there are two minority shareholders.

ECI now is concentrating heavily oncontracts with public schools. The companyhelps to redesign systems for school districtsacross the state, such as Santa Fe,Alamogordo, and Artesia.

ECI just finished renovating the heating andcooling structures at a high school and anelementary school in Alamogordo. It led ateam to design and install geothermal systemsat both schools, and it integrated all buildingmanagement into the company’s flagshipblueprint for central, online control.

The Alamogordo Public Schools invested $9million in the redesign at both schools, say

Dave Flood, director of operations andtransportation.

“It’s a higher up-front cost than aconventional system, but over the life cycle ofthe system it will be no more expensive,”Flood says. “In fact, it will probably be lessexpensive because of the energy savings.”

Flood says the district hired ECI because itprovides a turnkey solution for buildingmanagement.

“They’re kind of a one-stop shop forengineering, design, installation, control andmaintenance,” Flood says. “I’m just tickledpink. My hope is to install the same systems inall 16 schools in the district.”

COUNTY OF SONOMA

COMPREHENSIVE ENERGY PROJECT

Following a rigorous qualification based selection process and the requirements of Government Code Section 4217, the Board of Supervisors authorized a contract with Aircon Energy to act as the County’s Energy Services Company for the purpose of conducting an Investment Grade Audit of County facilities as part of the County’s Climate Protection Action Plan. The Audit analyzed the energy usage of County facilities and proposed specific viable Energy Efficiency Measures to reduce energy usage. More specifically as the County’s partner, Aircon Energy’s role is to define, design, and implement potential energy efficiency and clean generation projects for the County, with the end goal being greenhouse gas emissions reductions from County operations and cost savings on utility expenses

 

“The ability to generate our own clean energy is a huge step forward in our efforts to lower our greenhouse gas emissions,” said Board of Supervisors Chairman Paul Kelley. “The fact that the cell will save a substantial amount of money is, of course, another tremendous plus. This project is good for both the environment and the county’s bottom line,” Kelley said.

Aircon identified and evaluated over 100 potential energy-related water conservation, energy savings and self generation measures at County facilities. Based on this Audit, a scope of work for a Comprehensive Energy Project was developed that includes 38 of these Measures at 24 buildings. Improvements to the facilities include: Chillers, Boilers and other Central Plant Equipment Replacements, Lighting Systems Design and Retrofit, Air Distribution Systems Upgrades, Automation and Control Improvements, Detention Flush Control and Laundry Water Conservation Devices. The crown jewel of the project is a 1.4megawatt fuel cell system that will provide electricity and hot water to the entire Sonoma County main campus. Fuel cells are among the cleanest, most reliable sources of power generation, providing continuous high quality power 24 hours a day, with ultra-low emissions and quiet operation. In addition to the electricity the heat byproduct is incorporated into the building heating feed water loop.

The result of the project is:

• Greenhouse Gas Emissions reductions estimated at 6,805 tons annually • Facility improvements and reduced capital liability • A Self Funding program that places no burden on the citizens of Sonoma County
