The County is awarding the contract pursuant to Government Code section 4217.16 for energy projects. 2. AUTHORIZE the General Services Director, or designee, to execute the contract. FINANCIAL IMPACT The total cost of the energy projects is estimated at $1.32 million, funded with proceeds from an approved California Energy Commission (CEC) loan. The loan is for a period of 15 years at 3.95% interest. The projects are self-funded in that the County will achieve sufficient energy savings to cover the annual loan payments. The projected annual savings-in utility costs will be approximately $147,000. Upon completion, the County will receive Self Generation Incentive Program (SLIP) and lighting rebates from PG&E totaling $105,228. With the rebates and utility savings, the payback for the Juvenile Hall project is 8.2 years. BACKGROUND On February 10, 2004, the Board adopted the Strategic Energy Plan (SEP). The plan identified various energy projects that would, if implemented, reduce the County's electricity by an estimated $1.2 million per year. All of the major energy projects have been completed except for the projects to be performed under this contract, a cogeneration project at the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and lighting retrofits for the Douglas Drive buildings and Center Avenue buildings in Martinez, and Delta Fair buildings in Antioch which are to be completed by purchase order by the end of this fiscal year. With the implementation of this project, it is estimated that the County will reduce its carbon footprint by 2.4 million pounds of CO2 emissionser ye CONTINUED ON ATTACHMENT: X YES SIGNATURE: ✓RECOMMENDATION OF COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR RECOMMENDATION OF BOARD COMMITTEE _4fCPPROVE OTHER SIGNATURE(S): / p► y,� ACTION OF BR ON ( D ,O �/® APPROVED AS RECOMMENDED OTHER VOTE OF SUPERVISORS UNANIMOUS(ABSENT ) AYES: -N9 ABSENTS: ABSTAIN: MEDIA CONTACT:MICHAEL J.
