State of NH Energy Goals

Executive Order 2016-03

• Building Fossil Fuel Fuse Energy Intensity Targets (KBTU/sq. ft.) compared to a 2005 baseline

• 30 percent below FY2005 levels by 2020

• 40 percent below FY2005 levels by 2025

• 50 percent below FY2005 levels by 2030

• State Passenger Vehicle Fleet GHG Emissions Targets (Metric Tons)

• 30 percent below FY2010 levels by 2030

State of NH Energy Goals

Fossil Fuel Determinations

• All energy use tracked in kBTUs (Apples to Apples)

• Primary Energy Sources (e.g., oil, NG, biomass)

• Secondary Energy (e.g., electricity, steam)

• Determining total energy use is easy (Simple Addition)

• Determining fossil-fuel energy use has varied in complexity

• Count primary fossil fuels (1:1)

• Calculate secondary fuels based on share of fossil fuels in primary energy mix

• For default service: New England ISO-NE Mix

Total State Energy Costs by Fuel Source

Electricity Natural Gas Fuel Oil Propane Steam Wood Total Costs

Building Energy Consumption

The State was able to reduce its overall utility costs by $2.1 million in FY2020 over FY2019.

Legislation Change Update

• SB 462 / Omnibus HB 1245 (2020)

• Changes made to the following RSAs

• RSA 21-I:19-a Energy Management Measures; State Policy

• RSA 21-I:19-b Definitions

• RSA 21-I:19-d Energy Performance Contracting

• RSA 21-I:17-b Purchase of Electricity by Competitive Bidding

• RSA 21-I:19-e Energy Cost Savings Distribution

• RSA 21-I:19-f Strategic Energy Investment Fund

RSA 21-I:19-e Energy Cost Savings

Distribution

• Prior to the change, the balance in an agency’s energy cost budget would revert to the general fund at the end of a fiscal biennium

• Now, 50 percent of the general funds remaining in an agency's energy costs budget at the end of each biennium revert to the State Energy Investment Fund (SEIF)

• Why is the change important

• The intent is to incentivize reduction in energy consumption through behavior change, reducing energy costs and saving tax dollars

• Increase the funding set aside for energy efficiency projects, which would result in additional avoided energy costs

Summary of Completed Projects

14 of 16 Departments submitted energy conservation

plans that calculate energy savings for 64 completed

energy efficiency projects*.

Total cost: $8.6 million

Energy cost savings: $700,000 annually

Simple payback: 12.2 years

Energy Conservation Plan

Summary of Efficiency Funding

$0 in capital funds to SEM office for energy efficiency projects for the fiscal biennium 2020/2021. $130K Federal grant through OSI

19 projects across 13 agencies

• Estimated $31,000 annual avoided energy costs

• 4.2 year Return On Investment

• $465K in lifetime avoided energy costs

Energy Conservation Plan

Summary of ESPC

• In FY 2020, two Energy Saving Performance Contracts (ESPC) underway.

• Concord/State Office Park South: Twenty-eight (28) buildings located in downtown. (M&V phase)

• Seacoast region: 21 buildings, 5 Agencies (construction phase)

Energy Conservation Plan

Summary of Agency Priorities

• Top priority EE projects for agencies:• Replace HVAC systems and controls

• Upgrade lighting to LED (interior and exterior lighting)

• Replace windows/doors

• Solar P.V. systems

• Circulation pump upgrades

• Building envelope (air sealing/insulation)

Estimated cost for prioritized measures: $21M
