BACKGROUND Southern California Edison Company has contracted with Energy Innovation Group as the sole source program implementer for the Management Affiliates Program, which provides special incentives (significantly higher rebates) to acquire and install cost-saving emerging energy technologies not generally known in the marketplace. Energy Innovation Group conducts energy facility surveys, provides energy economic analysis, coordinates project installations, provides turnkey project management, arranges rebates, and provides other related services to agencies who are interested in implementing cost-saving emerging energy technologies. In August 2006, Energy Innovation Group conducted a facility review of City Hall, Corporate Yard, Transit Maintenance Facility, and the Santa Clarita and Jan Heidt Metrolink stations. This review identified several opportunities for Santa Clarita to realize energy savings through a focus on "best available next -stage technologies." i PPRovEo The most economically compelling energy savings strategies and technologies that were identified are: • Install lighting power regulators for the lighting at the Santa Clarita and Jan Heidt Metrolink stations and at the Transit Maintenance Facility to produce an estimated $18,000.00 annual energy savings. Cycle management units on the Corporate Yard air conditioning units to produce an estimated $1,000.00 annual energy savings. Improve the energy efficiency of lighting at the Corporate Yard and the Transit Maintenance Facility to produce an estimated $50,000.00 annual energy savings. The reduced energy cost savings from these technologies will offset the expenditures for the project costs. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS Other action as determined by the City Council. FISCAL IMPACT Funds for this contract are available in Account Nos. 14500-5131.001, General Services Administration Electric Utility, and 14509-5131.001, Transit Facilities Electric Utility. The reduced energy costs are expected to offset this expenditure within 18 months. ATTACHMENTS None
