base year consumption in terms of energy units (kWh, kW, ccf, Therms, gallons, or other
units used in bills), in terms of energy units per square foot, in terms of dollazs, and in
terms of dollars per square foot. Describe the process used to determine the base year
(averaging, selecting most representative contiguous 12 months, removal of anomalies, or

adjustments to the baseline for energy and water saving measures that shall be
implemented in the future.
d. For facilities constructed and occupied prior to July 1, 2005, establish the actual FY
2005/2006 baseline utility consumption and compare to the EPC base year consumption.

comprehensive approach including, but not limited to: lighting and daylighting systems,
heating/ventilating/air conditioning equipment and distribution systems, controls systems,
building envelope, motors, kitchen equipment, pools, renewable energy systems, other
special equipment, irrigation systems, and water saving devices.
b. Identify measures which appear likely to be cost effective and therefore warrant detailed
analysis.
c. For each measure, prepare a preliminary estimate of energy or water cost savings
including description of analysis methodology, supporting calculations and assumptions
used to estimate savings.

discretion, have the option to reject any presented calculations of savings, potential savings
allowed, or project recommendations.
6) Savings and Cost Analysis. Analyze savings and costs for each mutually agreed to energy

Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) or other nationally-recognized authorities following
the engineering principle(s) identified for each retrofit option.
b. Utilize assumptions, projections and baselines which best represent the true value of
future energy or operational savings. Include accurate marginal costs for each unit of
savings at the time the audit is performed, documentation of material and labor cost
savings, adjustments to the baseline to reflect current conditions at the facility, calculations
which account for the interactive effects of the recommended measures.
c. Use best judgment regarding the employment of instrumentation and recording durations
so as to achieve an accurate and faithful characterization of energy use.
d. Use markups and fees stated in contract in all cost estimates.
e. Develop a preliminary measurement and verification plan for each measure.
f. Follow additional guidelines for analysis and report preparation given below.
