HEFCE Good Practice Guide

Costing– CAPEX, OPEX– Need for life-cycle costing– Established investment appraisal protocols

and procedures need to be applied– Simple payback as a minimum, need for

NPV for larger projects– Need also to look at cost of inaction

Prioritisation– Need internally agreed criteria– Need to consider cost/affordability and impact/savings– Overlap and interaction with other strategies and priorities– MACC

Metrics for analysing project effectiveness

Initial Analysis– Simple payback– Salix £/tonne CO2 lifetime

Advanced Analysis– Net present cost– Cost effectiveness ratio (£/tonne CO2)

– Internal rate of return (IRR)

Use to……. 1. establish financial case2. prioritise projects

Costs

Capex – capital expenditure/costs– Single one off costs in year 0, usually includes

design, materials, technologies, installation, commissioning etc.

Opex – Operational expenditure/costs– Usually annual costs for running a project, e.g.

maintenance and servicing, lease costs or staff resource costs. Does not normally include energy costs for carbon reduction projects as these are accounted for in the savings data

– There may also be opex savings through some projects

Basic metrics

CO2 savings in year 1 (tCO2 or kgCO2)– The amount of carbon savings expected from a

project in the first full year of operation.

Simple Payback (yrs)– How long a project takes to pay the Capex back

through the financial savings achieved (yrs)

Financial metrics

Net Present Value (NPV)– The present value of an investment's future net

cash flows minus the initial investment.

Net Present Cost– The negative value of the NPV – Works better for energy saving projects as a larger

negative number shows greater savings

= Capital Cost + Operating Cost – Savings (discounted over project lifetime)

Financial Metrics

Discount rate– The interest rate used in determining the present value

of future cash flows, or – Multiplier that converts anticipated returns from an

investment project to their present value.

– For the public sector this is usually 3.5% as set by UK Treasury Green Book, 2008

Example

you expect £1,000 in one year's time. To determine the present value of this (what it is worth to you today) you would need to discount it by a particular rate of interest. Assuming a discount rate of 10%, the £1,000 in a year's time would be the equivalent of £909.09 to you today

(£1000/[1.00 + 0.10]).

Net Present Cost

Net Present Cost examplesfactor [=1/(1+r)^n]

Other rates in the CMPR

Inflation rate– 3.1% (Consumer Prices Index, CPI – July 10)– Use an appropriate rate to reflect rising energy

costs, not just overall inflation

‘Persistence’ rate– How quickly the opportunities’ energy savings

degrade over time . – E.g. a draught proofing project saves 1,000 kgCO2

in year 1, but thereafter saves 3% less each year due to deterioration. So year 2 will save 970 kgCO2

Understanding Financial Metrics

Internal Rate of Return (IRR)– The discount rate often used in capital budgeting that

makes the net present value of all cash flows from a particular project equal to zero.

– The higher a project's IRR the more desirable it is to undertake the project.

– IRR can be used to rank several prospective projects being considering.

Project:

Reference:

A short name for the project

It would help the Carbon Trust if you also use the following reference:

LA7-[first three letters of your authority]–[sequence number, e.g. 001]

but you may choose to use a unique reference of your own.

Owner (person) Name of the person responsible for delivering the project

Department Which part of the organisation the project sits within

Description A short description of the project, no more than a paragraph

Benefits Financial savings: £ [x]

Payback period: [x] years

CO2 Emissions reduction: [x] tonnes of CO2

% of target – the percentage of your CO2 saving target will this project annually contribute

Give an idea of how confident these estimates are, eg 1st pass using rules of thumb, costed by suppliers etc.

Funding Project cost, e.g. the initial cost of implementing the project

Operational costs, e.g. annual maintenance or running costs

Source of funding: internal, external, investment criteria to be met etc.

Say how /when decision on funding will be made

Resources Additional resource (e.g. people) requirements to enable delivery and where these will come from

If this project will be delivered within current resources, say so

Ensuring Success

Key success factors, or things that will need to happen for this project to succeed

Principal risks: technical, financial (eg what happens if the project is insufficiently resourced), etc.

Measuring Success

Metrics for displaying performance or achievement

When success will be measured / evaluated

Timing Milestones / key dates e.g.

o start date: dd/mm/yyyy

o completion date (when it will deliver savings): dd/mm/yyyy

o interim deliverable / decision points

[you could also lay these out as a milestone chart for ease and clarity]
