BOX 758 GREELEY, COLORADO 80632 To: Board of County Commissioners From: Toby Taylor Subject: Energy Conservation Facilities Master Plan; DOLA Application — 2019 August Cycle In accordance with the work session held on July 2, 2019, the Commissioners expressed a desire to apply for an energy and mineral impact grant to the Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) by August 1, 2019. The grant request is for using funds through the newly formed Renewable and Clean Energy Challenge Planning Projects grant. The request is for a Tier I - Planning grant (Attachment A) which will consist of a request of $200,000 from DOLA with another $200,000 match from the County for a total project amount of $400,000. If approved, the grant would fund a contract to an accredited Energy Service Company to perform an analysis of 32 County buildings with the goal of developing a Master Facilities Planning Document for energy conservation projects. The deliverables from the analysis would include a full range of prioritized recommendations related to facility/infrastructure modifications and related enhancements for energy and water conservation. In addition, some design work may be accomplished for the top four or five recommendations. This will allow future capital planning for implementing these energy conservation projects. Staff recommends authorization of signature on the DOLA application, so the application can be processed through the County's DOLA representative prior to Aug 1, 2019. If you have any questions, please contact me at extension 2023.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Toby, Thanks for sharing. The application looks good, I haven't seen any other applications for this specific grant yet, but relative to some of the other energy and EPC related EIAF grant applications, this one is pretty clear about what Weld County is looking to do and how you want to do it. A few thoughts / comments: • Just as an FYI, you are discussing a joint EPC / Investment Grade Audit process and Master Planning effort a little bit more than we typically do. There are some ESCOs that will have more experience in this than others, as such you may get some questions about the blending of the two concepts from DOLA. Ultimately, I think it works fine, just as long as you are clear from the start about the county's intentions. Building list details, if you provide square footage numbers we could apply the CEO EPC IGA cost and pricing $/SqFt. values to see what that fee would look like. This might be more for your information, but pointing that out might further highlight the use of the EPC program if that is the intention. It also might highlight that you don't need the full $200,000, up to you. 0 Energy use / cost data or energy reduction goals. Including use/cost data and / or setting a rough % reduction or % renewable goal, if you know it, could help provide context for DOLA. I know the implementation grant review criteria have % reduction and % renewable offset as specific criteria, so I could see aspirational goals in this planning grant being looked upon favorable by DOLA. I'm not sure how much efficiency work the county has done in the past, if not much, a 15-25% energy use reduction would probably be an achievable goal, maybe 5- 10% renewable if that is one the table. 1 Otherwise, I think you have a solid plan in place and the Energy Office / EPC team look forward to seeing Weld County move forward on this effort.

Toby, Good afternoon, I just wanted to follow-up on our conversation about Energy Performance Contracting and Weld County's plans / goals to perform a master planning type audit. If there is anything we can do to help with the decision making process or point you to firms we know have done this type of work for other public jurisdictions (ESCOs or otherwise), please let me know.

It sounds like you are headed down the right path to help Weld County start laying the groundwork to address energy efficiency and facility upgrades. While you are correct, the staff here at the Colorado Energy Office is limited, we feel that we have great partners in our Energy Services Companies (ESCOs) and we have a program process that allows us to provide the necessary services in an efficient and effective manner and to make sure EPC projects in Colorado are successful. Per our conversation, attached is Colorado State Statute that pertains to Energy Performance Contracting. Also, I am attaching two recent Requests for Proposals for the Investment Grade Audit and Energy Performance Contracting. While both of these RFPs started with the Energy Office EPC template, you will see that both Denver and Adams 12 have "made it there own" and outlined their potential projects much differently. Please do not hesitate to call me, or email myself and DeLynee (cc'd), with any questions.
