2013 -2014 Energy Efficiency Programs <br />Local Government Partnership Program <br />Program Implementation Plan <br />identifying opportunities for deep retrofits. As mentioned in Al, by bundling RCx with retrofits <br />and other comprehensive options, the customer will optimize their efficiency and get the best <br />bang for the buck. <br />Measures include but are not limited to the following: <br />Measure End Use Types Planned <br />Boilers <br />HVAC controls and tune up <br />Water Heating <br />Other <br />A3 — Integrating Demand Response: LGPs will determine demand response (DR) potential in <br />the course of comprehensively evaluating sites for energy efficiency retrofit and retro- <br />commissioning opportunities. DR will be integrated with energy efficiency and referrals to DR <br />programs will be made as appropriate. In addition to DR programs, partnerships will continue to <br />identify self - generation opportunities. SoCalGas will work with the Partnerships to ensure that <br />comprehensive packages are made available to the local governments within that Partnership, <br />including, for example a menu of DR options. The LOP will promote offerings through an <br />integrated marketing collateral and sales approach. With additional market segmentation and <br />feedback from customers, the utilities will adjust approaches in order to offer the combination of <br />programs to best meet the varied needs of customers. The goal is to integrate offerings through <br />building auditing and assessment, marketing materials and the strategic sales approach. <br />A4 - Technical Assistance: <br />While SoCalGas makes technical assistance available to all governments, the LGPs will have <br />targeted resources to provide technical assistance to the agencies within each LGP's geographic <br />area. This assistance is an integral component of LGP administered energy efficiency programs <br />and may take the form of engineering audits, equipment specifications, engineering and cost - <br />effectiveness calculations, field inspections, and equipment testing and analysis, and is an <br />integral component of LGP - administered energy efficiency programs. Partnerships will provide <br />technical support for developing, packaging and completing energy - efficient retrofit projects. <br />Additionally, SoCalGas will provide partnerships with training and access to benchmarking <br />technology such as the USEPA /Energy Star Benchmarking tool to identify the government <br />facilities with the highest potential. Partnerships will also provide resources for city staff training <br />and certification in the following; Building Operator Certification, Certified Energy <br />Management, LEED accreditation, Green Point rated and other applicable trainings. This training <br />will serve to build knowledge of energy management and resource conservation within the LGP. <br />A5 - On -Bill Financing <br />On -Bill Financing (OBF) will be offered to local governments for the qualified energy efficiency <br />projects. In addition to OBF, LGPs may utilize other financing options such as CEC loans or <br />municipal bonds as well as other state /federal grant programs. <br />
