Bank of America Energy Curtailment For The California Energy Commission June 27, 2002
California Energy Commission Pilot Test • On June 27, 2002, WebGen Systems Intelligent Use of Energy product curtailed 2 Megawatts of power, in 78 Bank of America properties, within the state of California. • The total load of the 78 properties was approximately 9 Megawatts • The time duration was four hours. The test commenced at 2:00 PM, and completed at 6:00 PM, PDST • The following slides display the demand trends for Northern & Southern California, and the aggregate for the pilot test.
Financials and Payback Full IUE™ System Cost Summary • Net Reduction in Energy Spend • 10 -15% after payment of all fees, shared savings & revenues • One-Time Installation Cost • $.04 - $.25 per gross sq ft (higher in small buildings) • Annual Maintenance Fee • $.09 per gross square foot • WebGen Share of Energy Savings • 25% of reduction below baseline energy spend • WebGen Share of Capacity & Energy Sold • 50% of all new ‘demand responsiveness’ revenues generated
Financials and PaybackSavings & Revenues( $ Per Square Foot) Annual Energy Savings on $2.50 energy spend* $0.44 • 10.0% Permanent Load Reduction $0.25 • 7.5% Peak Load Avoidance & Diversification $0.19 Annual Capacity & Energy Revenues** $0.17 • Capacity (.75 W/sq.ft. @ $0.08/W) $0.06 • Energy (.75 W/sq.ft. @ $0.15/kWh) $0.11 Total Annual Savings & Revenues $0.61 *Assumes constant baseline data. Any changes in weather patterns, building occupancy, plug load, lighting load, capital projects will impact savings. *WebGen does not participate in savings resulting from reduced maintenance, lower staff costs, energy-efficient capital projects, etc.. **Where applicable, assumes sale of Capacity @ $80,000/MWY and Energy @ $500/MWH (300 hours)
