Document Description
There are 8 energy efficiency measures (EEMS) to this project. EEM 1 involves the installation of 327.8 kW in canopy PV structures that are estimated to product roughly 526,748 kWh for the first year. EEMS 2 & 3 involve the addition of proper parking lot and path lighting to increase lighting in both areas to meet IES standards. EEMs 4-6 involve replacing all natural gas heating equipment with more efficient heat pump water heaters. EEM 7 involves a lighting upgrade to LED at the Willow Lake Water Treatment Plant and EEM 8 proposes backwash cycles to operate during off-peak hours to reduce demand charges for the Willow Lake Water Treatment Plant. The combined EEMS propose 462,994 kWh in electrical savings, 12,402 therms in gas savings, which both translate into a combined $193,365 in energy cost savings per year.
