Elements of a Successful Plan
http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?c=guidelines.guidelines_index -
1) Make a Commitment
o Form a cross-functional energy team
o Institute an energy policy/mandate
Example of an energy policy from ABC Inc. Energy Mandate
We recognize energy as a controllable operating expense wherein lower energy consumption results in decreased
operating expense, environmental emissions, and maintenance costs. Energy management is the responsibility of all
staff in our facility, guided and supported by the facility/energy manager. We will assess our energy performance and
share energy use data with all employees. We will create and implement an energy plan to achieve our energy goals. Our
use of equipment and controls for energy savings will be a show-piece in our industry.
o ABC Inc. has established three key energy goals:
Reduce kWh energy consumption per square foot by 20% in one year
Reduce kW peak demand per month by 10%
Obtain a minimum 20% IRR on efficiency investments
Established this ______ day of ___________, 2011.

Elements of a Successful Plan
Motor energy consumption
Electric power (kW) = HP x 0.746/Eff. where efficiency is around 90%
Energy (kWh) = Power (kW) x Time (hrs)
What is power draw for a 200 HP motor?
Electric power (kW) = 200 HP x 0.746/0.90
= 166 kW
What is energy consumption for 200 HP motor operating 16 hrs per day?
Energy (kWh) = 166 kW x 16 hrs/day
= 2,660 kWh/day
15
-
Elements of a Successful Plan
Sub-metering stand-alone products
o Cumulative kWh and "real-time kW load
o kW peak date and time
15-minute interval standard;
30-minute interval available
o Parallel up to three (3) sets of current
sensors for cumulative readingSource: E-Mon

Estimating HVAC Billing
o HVAC costs, typically the largest portion of your bill, can be estimated
by using cooling load hours
o When heating with natural gas, establish lowest cooling load hour month
electrical consumption as a baseline to estimate the air conditioning
portion of your bill
Most other end uses such as
lighting and office equipment are
fairly constant over the year
Almost all of the month-to-month
increases in energy consumption
are due to air conditioning
Cooling Load Hours
Elements of a Successful Plan
18
-
Use baseline consumption in winter months to
estimate cooling portion of bill
Subtracting winter months baseline from actual will
give a good estimate of cooling energy consumption
o Use 80% of January/February energy consumption as a baseline
