3) Base - Year Consumption. Establish base -year consumption and reconcile with end -use consumption
estimates.
a. Establish appropriate base year consumption by examining utility bills for the past three years for
electricity, gas, propane, steam, water, and any other applicable utilities. Present base year consumption in
terms of energy units (kWh, kW, ccf, Therms, gallons, or other units used in bills), in terns of energy
units per square foot, in terms of dollars, and in terms of dollars per square foot. Describe the process
used to determine the base year (averaging, selecting most representative contiguous 12 months, removal
of anomalies, or other statistical or weather - normalized method). Consult with facility personnel to
account for any anomalous schedule or operating conditions on billings that could skew the base year
representation. Contractor shall account for periods of time when equipment was broken or
malfunctioning in calculating the base year.
b. Estimate loading, usage and /or hours of operation for all major end uses of total facility consumption
including, but not limited to: Lighting, heating, cooling, motors (fans, pumps, and other pertinent), plug
loads, and other major energy and water using equipment. Where loading or usage are highly uncertain
(including variable loads such as cooling), Contractor shall use its best judgment, spot measurements or
short-tern monitoring. Contractor should not assume that equipment run hours equal the operating hours
of the building(s) or facility staff estimates.
c. Reconcile annual end -use estimated consumption with the annual base year consumption. This
reconciliation shall place reasonable "real- world" limits on potential savings. Propose adjustments to the
baseline for energy and water saving measures that shall be implemented in the future.
d. For facilities constructed and occupied prior to July I, 2005, establish the actual FY 2005/2006 baseline
utility consumption and compare to the EPC base year consumption. Document, analyze, and defend all
variances between the EPC base year consumption values and the actual FY 2005/2006 facility baseline
utility consumption.
4) Preliminary Analysis. Develop a preliminary analysis of potential energy and water saving measures.

approach including, but not limited to: lighting and daylighting systems, heating /ventilating/air
conditioning equipment and distribution systems, controls systems, building envelope, motors, kitchen
equipment, pools, renewable energy systems, other special equipment, irrigation systems, and water
saving devices.
b. Identify measures which appear likely to be cost effective and therefore warrant detailed analysis.
c. For each measure, prepare a preliminary estimate of energy or water cost savings including description
of analysis methodology, supporting calculations and assumptions used to estimate savings.
5) Preliminary Meeting. Meet with Agency to present preliminary analysis prior to complete analysis.
Describe how the projected project economics meet the Agency's terms for completing the Technical
Energy Audit and Proposal Contract. Discuss assessment of energy use, savings potential, project
opportunities, and potential for developing an energy performance contract. Develop a list of recommended
measures for further analysis. The Agency shall at its discretion, have the option to reject any presented
calculations of savings, potential savings allowed, or project recommendations.
6) Savings and Cost Analysis. Analyze savings and costs for each mutually agreed to energy and water saving
measure and any mutually agreed to capital improvement measures.
a. Follow the methodology of the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE) or other nationally- recognized authorities following the engineering principle(s)
identified for each retrofit option.
b. Utilize assumptions, projections and baselines which best represent the true value of future energy or
operational savings. include accurate marginal costs for each unit of savings at the time the audit is
performed, documentation of material and labor cost savings, adjustments to the baseline to reflect current
conditions at the facility, calculations which account for the interactive effects of the recommended
measures.
c. Use best judgment regarding the employment of instrumentation and recording durations so as to
achieve an accurate and faithful characterization of energy use.
d. Use markups and fees stated in contract in all cost estimates.
e. Develop a preliminary measurement and verification plan for each measure.
Page 23 of 30
f. Follow additional guidelines for analysis and report preparation given below.
g. Include cost to provide services and complete application for ENERGY STAR Label, LEED -EB
certification for Existing Buildings, or other certification.

and economic basis for negotiating a potential Energy Performance Contract between the Agency and the
Contractor. The report shall include:
a. Overview.
i. Contact information.
ii. Summary table of recommended energy and water saving measures, with itemization for each
measure of total design and construction cost, annual maintenance costs, the first year cost

Project Cost and Pricing Elements
COST AND PRICING
Maximum rates were established for ESCOs participating in the GEO/EPC program. Below are rates
agreed for this specific project that are equal to or less than the maximum established rates, based on
the size, scope and location of this specific project.
Markups
Markups shall be calculated as a percentage added to the base cost for the project. The use of margins in lieu of
markups is not acceptable. Use only the categories shown. Ranges for markups are not acceptable.
Ennovate utilizes the cost category and pricing table fonnat developed by the GEO as the basis for EPC project
pricing.
Our project price is calculated by totaling direct and indirect costs, and then applying the overhead and profit
mark -ups listed in the table below. Direct costs include material, equipment, labor, subcontractors, engineering,
project management, project development, and account management. Since Ennovate was designed as a local
energy engineering firm, its indirect costs are minimal. There are no regional, national, or global fees in any of
Ennovate's project pricing. Those functions simply do not exist within Ennovate. The few indirect costs that do
exist are from office supplies and business costs required to perform accounting, legal, IT, human resources, and
training activities.
We provide Open Book Pricing. In order to achieve this level of disclosure, we provide copies of vendor and
subcontractor quotes to an authorized client representative to validate direct costs. If desired, we can provide a set
of reviewed financial statements provided by our independent accounting firm.
