Typical Industrial Facility Project
|
| This example illustrates a possible
scenario that might exist at a reasonably large industrial facility.
Simulated existing conditions and sample proposed retrofits are listed
with example calculations of energy savings, incentives, and simple
payback. The data given below is not necessarily indicative of what you
may see at your site, but can be reviewed to understand how the program
will operate and the potential value of a "Custom" project at your
facility. |

reliability problems |
Instead of buying a new minimum efficiency chiller, replace the 200 ton
air-cooled chiller with a high efficiency chiller (project cost is based
only on the incremental cost from a standard efficiency chiller) |

| The total annual savings would be
approximately 200,755 kWh, resulting in an estimated $16,060 in annual
utility savings. The estimated cost of this project (using the above
simulation) is $79,336, with an estimated incentive of $18,068. If the
facility was to make these upgrades, the net project cost to the
customer (after incentive) would be $61,268, yielding an approximate 3.8
year payback. |
