UESC Services

Partnering with PSE

• UESC services involve task orders that can be issued under the AWC, which include:

• Energy Management Services (energy audits, conservation measure implementation focused on energy, water, and renewables)

• Provision of services under the WUTC

10

Goals / Executive Order 13693

Partnering with PSE

Building Energy Conservation• Reduce energy (kBTU/ft2) by 30 percent by 2025• Compared to 2015 baseline

Clean Building Energy• Accounts for not less than 25 percent by 2025• Total amount of building electric and thermal energy

Renewable Building Electric Energy• Not less than 30 percent by 2025• Total amount of building electric energy consumed

Water Efficiency• Reduce potable water consumption (gallons/ft2) by 36 percent by 2025• Compared to 2007 baseline

Efficient Fleet• Reduce fleet-wide per-mile GHG emissions by 30 percent by 2025• Compared to 2014 baseline

11

PSE’s Approach

3 Ingredients for Successful Projects

Partnering with PSE

• Knowledge/Expertise

• Resources

• Relationship !!!

13

How Does It Work?

Partnering with PSE

Typically, it looks like this:

But PSE can start anywhere you want

Workshop Preliminary Assessment Task Order Implementation

14

Workshop

Partnering with PSE

• Goal: Understand your goals, needs, and project criteria

• PSE wants to meet with site-decision makers, technical staff, operations, etc. – anybody that you need project buy-in

• Some questions the team will ask:

• Do you have a current list of projects?

• What is your payback criteria?

• What are the must-haves and nice-to-haves?

• PSE will explain the UESC process and expectations

• If both parties agree it’s a good fit and you choose PSE, PSE can then move to the preliminary assessment

15

Preliminary Assessment

Partnering with PSE

• Goal: Determine the possible project scope that makes sense and will accomplish your goals

• Broad assessment of the potential for energy and water efficiency measures, as well as renewables

• Examination of energy and water consuming equipment and control systems

• This will be a free service

• Expected Time: 2-3 months

16

Task Order

Partnering with PSE

• Goal: Finalize scope, pricing, savings, and financing so you can make a final decision

• PSE will work with pre-qualified subcontractors or ESCOs (depending on complexity and preferences) to provide firm information

• PSE will secure financing for the project

• PSE will provide transparent pricing


17

Implementation

Partnering with PSE

• Goal: Deliver a successful project that is on-time, on-budget, and meets/exceeds performance expectations

• PSE will perform project management over all subcontractors

• PSE will host regular status update meetings

• All measures will be commissioned, O&M manual will be provided, and training will be completed

• PSE will conduct performance assurance to make sure the equipment is operating as designed to maximize savings

• Payments will start at project completion

• PSE will work with you to determine billing preferences


18

Potential Measures

Partnering with PSE

PSE can package multiple measures together to provide a cost-effective package. Measure could include:

• LED Lighting (Interior, Exterior, Controls)• Building Envelope Improvements• Energy Management Control Systems• Variable Speed Drives• High-Efficiency Boilers• High-Efficiency Chillers• Plumbing Fixtures• Heat Recovery• Solar• Demand-Control Ventilation

19

Questions?

Partnering with PSE

20

Table Discussion

Partnering with PSE

Format• Please spend 5 minutes by yourself answering the

questions. • Please then share your responses with your table for 15

minutes. • We will then ask for group responses for 10 minutes.

Questions• What are your energy, water, or renewable goals (agency or

facility specific)?• Do you currently have plans (staff, budget, expertise and etc)

or projects for achieving the goals?• What struggles that have you had getting projects done in

the past? Please list three most common challenges you encounter.

• Can a UESC with PSE help solve those problems and support your goals?

Customer choices for renewable energy

EXISTING GREEN POWER PROGRAM• REC

purchases• 44,000

customers• residential,

business, municipal

LARGE SCALE REC PURCHASES

• Excess PSE• 10,000,000

kWh

PROPOSED PREMIUM GREEN

Long-term partnership with PSE for dedicated energy resources

CUSTOMER OWNED PROJECTS

• Active ownership & management by customer

• Distributed generation


25

DIY Distributed Generation

Solar PV – Rooftop or Ground Mount• Up to 100 kW Net Metering• Full retail value for all production

Commercial Scale• 100 kW to 5 MW• PSE contracts for the energy for 15 years• Fixed offer contract: Schedule 91• RECs should be retired by customer [not sold]


26

Green Power Program

Local Resources • Wind from Columbia River + Idaho • Methane from Puget Sound digesters• Landfill-gas from Pierce County + Idaho• Solar from both sides of Cascades • Run-of-River Hydro

Inexpensive at $0.006/kWhEasy


27

Large Scale REC Purchase

Northwest Wind RECs at market price• PSE has more wind than required by state RPS and must

sell excess• Source is PSE’s three wind farms• Minimum purchase is 10,000,000 kWh/Yr.• Smart alternative to TX RECs, etc.

28

New Premium Green [In Development]

Energy that reflects

customervalues

Reduced carbon

footprint

Increased renewable

energy development

Connection to a specific resource

A hedge value with known

future energy costs to manage budgets

Customer can promote

increased sustainability

29

Premium Green Product Options

Renewable Energy• New resources• Longer commitment for customer• RECs retired or go to customer• Service Agreement that includes specific resource(s),

location, duration and prices

Carbon Free• Available today• May or may not have RECs


30

What PSE can do for you

• Provide Renewable Energy through existing programs• Compare and advise on alternatives

• Understand full costs and benefits of self-generation• Provide grants through energy efficiency for load reduction

Best Practices from PSE’s Experience

Greening the Fleet

• Focus on your high fuel users• Make a multi-phase plan for both fleets and infrastructure• Plan your infrastructure with your partners and to scale• Take advantage of other projects to minimize cost• Work hard on the first project to work out standards – the others

get easier from there• Ensure solid support from vendors• Maintenance plan and install plan
