Evergreen: A Place for Sustainability
The college’s physical resources will imaginatively enhance the learning and working environment
Critical Mandates –
Carbon Neutral by 2020
Conserve Replace Offset
Zero Waste by 2020Evergreen’s Organic Farm
Areas of Implementation
Budget Implications-•Utility budget is approximately 35% of Operating
Facilities Initiatives-•Conducted after hours light surveys•Reduced steam pressure from 100 to 50 psi•Added Resource Conservation Manager•Looked at Building Operating Hours•Participated in PSE Program to Shed Load•ESCO based systemic upgrades•Change Operating Temperatures –
68˚-70˚ (winter) / 76˚-78˚ (summer)
Reduce utility costs save $money$, jobs, and environment!
How did We get Here
1. Introduced to ESPC process by WSU Plant Operations Support
2. Flexibility in contract –guaranteed max price
3. Contacted GA
4. Interviewed 3 ESCO
5. Developed Contract with GA
Energy Savings Proposal – Phase 1
Selected Chevron Energy Services
Established Evergreen’s Parameters for a successful Project
Developed Contract with Chevron Accomplished Preliminary
Energy Audit
Selected Areas for Detailed Analysis Large scale ground water
source heat pump system
Contractor’s home office was not responsive to contract criteria
Ground Water Source System did not meet college’s payback criteria
Terminated contract
Energy Savings Proposal – Phase 1.1
Contacted GA again in 2007 to select an ESCO
Selected McKinstry Essention
Established College’s Parameters for successful Project
Accomplished Energy Audit

Energy Savings Proposal – Phase 1.1
Project Execution Timely execution of project initiated in late 2007
completed in May 2009
Coordination of contractor and in-house work
Installation of heat recovery system in winter
Providing necessary documentation to PSE for grant/rebate
Selecting equipment for automated reporting of PV array output
Developing interface for PV array reporting
Training on pool cover and heat recovery unit

ENERGY SUCCESS
Phase 1 reductions: 964 MTCDE = 5% of
baseline
Greenhouse Gas Emissions Baseline (FY 2004 – 05): 19,395 MTCDE
Phase 2 reductions (est): 951 MTCDE = 5% of
baseline
ENERGY SUCCESS Thoughts
Look at Different Possibilities for Energy Savings
Develop Partnership with utility, GA, and ESCO
Keep your community informed
Make use of all resources - yours and others
Ensure staff is involved during process
Success is implementing within budget and reducing energy use
Success included the ESPC, RCM, operational changes & support at all levels
Look to the future for possible offsets for carbon
Energy Savings Proposal – Phase 2
Project Execution Timely completion of project – ESP completed 2/10,
GA contract 7/10, work started 9/10
PSE recommissioning rebate process – required additional time to implement
Providing necessary documentation to PSE for grant/rebate
Department of Commerce grant funding
Pool light upgrade improved safety
Customer satisfaction was very high with the light upgrade in gym & pool
Project is under budget
The heat recovery system was installed by same subcontractor
