  4. Average cost per month to operate the large chiller and hatchery power is $12,368.19 Average cost per month to operate the small chiller and hatchery power is $4,710.28 The Difference in cost per month is $7,657.91 The large chiller is operated four months of the year by itself and three months in conjunction with the small chiller. The small chiller is operated five months of the year by itself. • Cost saving calculated by Avista Power • Monthly energy savings with new system 94,107 kW hr/month • Monthly demand savings with new system 129 kW/month • Monthly energy cost Savings $5,866/month • Monthly demand cost savings $612/month • Based on the Avista cost savings estimations, the new system saves us • approximately…….. $29,330/year
