Current Context • New York has a rapidly growing
renewable energy market. • New York has about 400 MW of
installed solar PV to date across the state ~ 0.3% of electricity usage
• NY Sun is the state-‐lead iniEaEve to develop at least 3,000 MW of solar PV in New York in the next 5+ years.
• PosiEve step, but we are sEll behind were we need to be.

• We need a faster rate than this to be on any serious track of achieving the plan of 100% renewable energy by 2050, which is needed to address the serious problems we’re facing.
• In order for New York to reach 100% renewable energy by 2050, solar PV needs to make up around 40% of New York’s energy supply and that will require over 150,000 MW of solar PV.

The Solarize Model Solarize Programs work to eliminate the few remaining barriers to solar adop6on by providing:
• ASracEve lower-‐than-‐market pricing that decreases through a Eer structure as more people go solar through the program
• A simple process with veSed technology and installaEon partners • County-‐wide educaEonal outreach events on the affordability and
accessibility of solar PV and how it works • A community-‐wide program with deadlines to build enthusiasm
and generate the impetus for adopEon now!

Solar Tompkins 2014 Results • Large successful county-‐wide program in 2014 • Tompkins County had just over 2MW of solar installed last June before the program
• 60 events, 1321 families enrolled, and 400 families went solar totaling over 3 MW
• This exceeded our goal of doubling the amount of residenEal solar in Tompkins County in 2014
• The projects were well distributed across all of the towns in the county

• The mulEple installer and local carve-‐out design resulted in many economic benefits and over 50 new permanent good jobs
• The 2014 program also brought over $7,000,000 of incenEve funds to Tompkins County and its municipaliEes for the development of solar.
• The discounted pricing also saved homeowners another $3,200,000.

• Formed Solar Tompkins Board of Directors to develop and administer
program -‐ volunteer representaEves from each of the 10 towns/city, one from Tompkins Planning Dept, and one from Cornell CooperaEve Extension
• Had early meeEng with potenEal installers, learned that the size, in terms of
geography (over 300,000 acres) and number of installaEons (300-‐500), did not fit “solarize” model easily
• How to achieve big goals and sEll make it easy for consumers while not hurEng local installers?
• Wrestled with this for 6 months before moving ahead and hiring Program Director to work with installers to find soluEon
• Incredibly fortunate to find former installer with relaEonships in community

What’s Next for Solar Tompkins • Dozens of requests to Solar Tompkins for help with reducing the fossil fuels used for hea6ng, and switching to a more efficient and renewable home heaEng system
• Strong interest at community meeEngs and from other stakeholders in a Solar Tompkins renewable heaEng/envelope improvement program
• A similar ramp up in deployment is needed for renewable heaEng and smart building technology
![Page 15: TCOG Presentation 4.24.15...TCOG Presentation 4.24.15.pptx Author Melissa Kemp Created Date 4/23/2015 8:09:16 PM](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042811/5fa4f2c3b234ba3a062c4130/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
HeatSmart Tompkins
• Solar Tompkins will be launching a Renewable Hea6ng and Building Efficiency Program in this same Solarize model in the Summer of 2015
• Program will focus on ground source and air source heatpumps, and building insulaEon and air-‐sealing
![Page 16: TCOG Presentation 4.24.15...TCOG Presentation 4.24.15.pptx Author Melissa Kemp Created Date 4/23/2015 8:09:16 PM](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042811/5fa4f2c3b234ba3a062c4130/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Home hea6ng is the largest part of an average family’s home energy usage in Tompkins County

Main Technologies • Building HeaEng and Cooling – Air-‐Source Heat Pumps – Ground-‐Source Heat Pumps – High-‐efficiency Electric DHW HeaEng – Referral to Wood Pellet OpEons Outside of Program
• InsulaEon and Air-‐Sealing – Air-‐sealing techniques for basements, crawlspaces, ancs, doors, and windows
– Cellulose insulaEon, spray foam insulaEon, foam board insulaEon, and possibly fiberglass if extremely well-‐air-‐sealed

What Will This Program Look Like? • Pilot but significant scale – 100 homes • 2 or 3 installer partners • Each installer partner could be one company or two+ companies working very closely together
• Community educaEonal meeEngs and enrollment • Enrollees would have a site visit, and evaluaEon of both building efficiency and heaEng systems for all would be required
• Enrollees would then receive a combined coordinated presentaEon of renewable heaEng and building efficiency/envelope opEons -‐ standardized across installer partners

Economics • The economics make tremendous sense for families currently using propane, oil, or electric for heaEng, and looking to retrofit.
• One powerful metric is that the monthly cost for the insulaEon and heat pump is open less than they were paying per month previously.
• They can also make sense for some families currently using natural gas.
