4Energy Performance Contracting
- An EPC program is designed to enable the
redirection of existing financial resources to
achieve strategic environmental and energy
objectives. - Energy spend is reduced, pressures on existing
budgets are eased and carbon energy targets
achieved by optimised operational performance. - The programme is a long term self funding
spend-to-save programme and performance is
underwritten by the ESCO.
The search for that elusive funding solution is
over EPC delivers

6The current situation - why do you need EPC?
EPC is targeted to primarily capture the larger
and longer term 5 -15 year opportunities that
current funding streams do not address
You are positioned here?
Salix funding is available to pick off the low
hanging fruit. However harvesting these projects
alone will not meet long term targets. It could
even restrict future opportunity.

EPC delivers the step up your team needs to break
through that glass ceiling
7Avoid Cream Skimming
- Cream skimming is the uncontrolled yet
encouraged practice of investing in high impact
carbon saving projects with relatively low
initial costs and quick paybacks. While such
investments are attractive in the short term,
pursuing them may prevent an Authority from
capturing more significant long-term benefits
that are likely to result from more extensive and
capital intensive retrofits. By emphasizing
short-term paybacks, cream skimming weakens an
Authorities ability to finance more capital
intensive improvements that leverage the value of
those short-term paybacks. - A holistic approach to whole estate asset
management is required. Only apply short term
measures when an asset has no long term future.
EPC opens the door for you to formulate a long
term strategy

11Advantages of EPC
- Long Term
- Enables a holistic view of estate strategy based
on a whole useful life cost of asset ownership
basis - Accountability
- ESCO is single source of responsibility
