Compressed Air Best Practices - January 2009 - (Page 23) Focus Industry ENERGY REBATES | 01/09 | Incentive Rebates for Projects The findings of an audit (or assessment) will present the factory with the actions required to reduce energy costs. In the example we’ve used in this article of the corporation with 12 factories, the assessment findings were as follows for the sum of the factories: Total Annual Energy Savings Achieved with Compressed Air Systems i. Electrical energy cost savings of $3.6 million per year representing a 22% reduction ii. Electrical energy cost savings of 61.1 million kWh per year iii. CO2 (GHG) emissions reduction of 43,529 metric tons per year iv. Equivalent CO2 emissions reductions to power 5,765 homes per year v. Equivalent CO2 emissions of taking 7,972 passenger vehicles off the road per year The corporation did receive incentive rebates for eight of the 12 projects. The numbers looked like this: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Project Costs: $3.5 million Project Rebates: $1.2 million Net Project Costs $2.3 million Total Annual Energy Savings: $3.6 million Simple ROI Payback: 7 months Project incentive rebate programs vary from region to region depending upon the policies of the local utility company. Some regions are extremely active with well-funded and professionally run incentive programs, while others are completely inactive. Tacoma Power’s program offers cash incentives based on $0.12 per first-year kilowatt-hours saved up to 50% of the approved installed project cost, with a minimum of a one-year simple payback period (with incentive). www.airbestpractices.com 23 http://www.airbestpractices.com
