1 Energy Efficiency in Buildings Energy Savings Cost Savings Increased Productivity Economic Development Other Standard lighting retrofits: $0.90-$1.20 per square foot. High-efficiency packaged and split system A/C equipment: $100- $180 per ton more than standard efficiency models. Premium Efficiency Motors (incremental costs vs. standard replacements): about $16 per horse power (HP) for 1 HP-10 HP motors; $8/HP for 11 HP to 100 HP. Variable frequency drives (VFDs): $150- $200, installed. Commissioning new buildings: $0.50-$3.00 per square foot. Retro-commissioning buildings: $0.05 and $0.40 per square foot. Existing buildings: overall consumption reductions of 20% to 30%, with reductions as high as 35%-40%, depending on aggressiveness. Retro-commissioned commercial building: average savings of 1.7 kwh/ft 2 and average overall energy savings of 15%. Lighting retrofits: save 10%-20% of total electric consumption in gas-heated buildings. High efficiency packaged and splitsystem cooling equipment: 25% less cooling energy than standard equipment and 10%-15% less than ASHRAE standard. Building Operator training: kwh/ft 2 per year. Existing buildings: reducing consumption by 20% to 30% can produce savings from 6%-9% of total annual costs. Converting constant volume HVAC systems to variable air volume systems: can save between $0.10/ft 2 to $0.20/ft 2 or 10%-21% of HVAC energy costs. Installing premium efficiency motors and VFDs: Potential energy cost savings are 50-85%. Peak energy-reducing measures: produce proportionally greater cost savings than those that have mostly off-peak savings. Commissioning new buildings: average savings of $0.05/ft 2. Retro-commissioning existing buildings: save around $0.27/ft 2, resulting in 15% energy savings and a payback period of 0.7 years. Existing buildings: improved comfort and better air quality can increase productivity. Retrofitted buildings: Increased savings from enhanced productivity can equal up to 10 times the energy cost savings. Existing buildings: 1% productivity improvements can offset entire annual utility costs. Existing buildings: For every $1 spent in local economy, energy efficiency generates more economic activity than does payment of energy bills. Existing Buildings: energy efficiency investments can increase asset value by $2.00-$3.00 for each $1.00 spent. Existing buildings: a lighting power reduction of 40% increases an ENERGY STAR rating by 10 points. Retrocommissioned buildings: annual non-energy savings, such as extended equipment life and improved air quality, are approximately $0.26/ft 2.

2 Green buildings: cost premiums average $3/ft 2 -$5/ft 2, or less than 2% of initial costs. New high-performance green buildings: cost premium range from 2%-7%, depending on the specific design features integrated. LEED green buildings: additional cost of certified projects: 0%- 2.5%, Silver 0%-3.5%, Gold 0.5%-5%, Platinum 4.5%+. Green Buildings Energy Savings Cost Savings Increased Productivity New green buildings: mean savings is 27%; mean value for actual consumption is 1% lower than modeled. New green buildings: 50% reduced consumption compared to conventional new buildings. New green buildings: energy cost savings compared to conventional design as high as $0.47/ft 2. Commissioning new buildings: average savings of $0.05/ft 2. Installing highperformance lighting: productivity improvements of 0.7%- 26% with a median of 3.2%. Incorporating daylighting: productivity improvements of 0.45% -40%, mean of 5.5%. Increasing natural ventilation: productivity improvements of 3%- 18%, mean of 8.5%. Average Period Payback (years) Highperformance buildings: simple payback period can be as short as 2.0 years for offices, 2.1 years for libraries, and 2.6 years for schools. Other GHG emissions reductions: as high as 36%. Reduced indoor and outdoor water consumption: 30% and 50%, respectively. Reduced waste consumption: 50%-75%. Value of non-energy benefits: 25%-50% of the value of annual electricity cost savings. Energy-Efficient Product Procurement All Products Energy Savings Average Payback Energy Cost Savings Period (years) Emission Reductions Energy-efficient as opposed to conventional products: cost premium varies with each product, but most often the difference is slight. Energy-efficient product procurement: savings of 3%-12% of total building energy consumption. Energy-efficient product procurement: energy cost savings of 4%-17% relative to total commercial energy costs. 1 MWh of electricity saved: through energy-efficient product procurement equals emissions reductions of: 1,364 pounds of CO pounds of SO pounds NO x Background and Sources available in Clean Energy Lead by Example Guide - 2

5 Green Power Purchases Energy Savings Energy Cost Savings Emission Reductions Green power: about 2 /kwh. Premiums vary by utility but range from 0.2 /kwh /kwh Renewable energy certificates (RECs): 1 /kwh (in ME) - about 5 /kwh (in MA). Solar REC prices in NJ are the highest at 25 /kwh RECs offered by a certificate marketer: 0.5 /kwh /kwh, with an average of 2.3 /kwh. RECs are also available at $5.50/ton CO 2 to $12/ton CO 2, with an average of $9.80/ton CO 2. N/A Utility green power programs: For some utility green power programs, the premium can be negative, thus reducing energy bills. These premiums have been as low as /kwh Purchasing 1 MWh of green power is equivalent to: d 0.14 passenger cars not driven for one year; 0.52 acres of pine or fir forests storing carbon for one year; 16 tree seedlings grown for 10 years; 0.21 tons of waste recycled instead of landfilled; and 71 gallons of gasoline.
