  1. Energy Efficiency Program Presentation for Senator Padilla December 15, 2011

  2. Customer Energy Efficiency Guiding Principles Establish Clear & Achievable Annual Energy Savings Targets to 2020 Offer Cost-Effective Program Elements Provide Customer Support & Continuous Improvement of Customer Experience Support Job Creation in Los Angeles Demand Rigorous Field Verification of Program Measures & Energy Savings Invest in Los Angeles Promote Conservation & Sustainable Practices Save Money for our Customer 2

  3. Energy Efficiency: A Smart Investment REDUCES CARBON FOOTPRINT Customers save money by using less energy Reduces amount of energy needed to meet customer demand Reduces City’s carbon footprint (GHG emissions) by displacing fossil fuel Avoids infrastructure costs Creates local jobs Continues LA’s commitment to conserve CREATES LOCAL JOBS 3

  4. Low Cost of Energy Efficiency The least expensive kilowatt is the one never generated * Data as of November 2011Avoided cost of Energy Efficiency includes the blended cost of gas fired and renewable generation of 8.5 cents/KWh; does not capture avoided fixed costs of capacity, like distribution and integration costs. 4

  5. Energy Efficiency Funding Revenue Sources Today LADWP Customers Federal Grants New Borrowing 5

  6. Energy Efficiency Program Drivers Customer Needs Technology Advances Reasonable Incentives Adequate Resources Outreach Regulatory Standards 6

  7. Potential Study Key Findings:Commercial Sector shows highest potential for savings with biggest opportunities in lighting Industrial 9% Residential 34% Commercial 57% Industrial 4% Residential 28% Commercial 68% 7 *Based on Advanced Program

  8. Top Energy Uses by Customer Sector 8

  9. Energy EfficiencyProgress to Date In 2006, LADWP set goal of 10% energy savings over 10 years. Progress to date is less that we’d like: 3.1% in 5 years 9

  10. Annual Energy SavingsWe are not on Target to meet 10% by 2020 10

  11. LADWP Follows Strict Protocols to Measure & Verify Energy Efficiency • In-House Reviews: Conduct pre- and post-installation inspections • 3rd-Party Reviews (AB2021) • Since 2003, we have received independent measurement and verification of energy savings • Revising 3rd-party review to reflect new evaluation component in collaboration with California Energy Commission. Expect to develop new external review in 1st Quarter, 2012 11

ARRA 2010-11 Grant FundedCommercial Programs • RCx Express - Retro-commissioning: • Pilot introduced in June 2011, www.ladwp.com/rcx • Rebate for up to 13 building “tune-up” measures • HVAC airside and waterside measures, plus lighting • Examples: adjusting airside economizers & restoring lighting occupancy sensors • Innovative prescriptive process helps achieve savings quickly • Rebate to commercial buildings on $0.08 per kWh saved • Savings estimated by online tool at California Commissioning Collaborative and verified by LADWP engineers • Projects must be completed by April 2012 17

  18. Study of On-Bill Financing: Exploration of on-bill financing for home energy improvements & repayment through utility bill Expanded research includes consideration of non-residential customers Potential options include: 3rd party financing Partner with local gas utility Targeted MOU with selected customers as pilot Consulting with various entities, including CA utilities and other interested & experienced entities ARRA 2010-11 Grant FundedFinancial Assistance Programs

  20. Weatherization Production Schedule

  21. Green Jobs Creation Partnerships* with local agencies to establish a “Green Jobs Pipeline” in Los Angeles for the creation of clean energy jobs and to support the City’s commitment to increased energy efficiency and renewable energy production. The UPCT program provides 18 months of on-the-job training for new employees who gain on the job training with journey-level or skilled craft workers. • IBEW Local 18, LAANE, SCOPE, LATT, and LA WorkSource Centers

  22. Develop a residential home services, direct install program. Targeted Customers: Low-income and moderately low-income* residential customers.
