Attachment A: Scope of Work
Attachment A outlines services PECI will perform.
Eligible Customers
The EriergySmart Grocery program defines eligible customers as those who have commercial
refrigeration load. Customers include:
1) National chain supermarkets
2) Independent groceries .
3) Comer groceries
4) Specialty shops (ice cream, butchers, etc)
5) Institutional kitchens (schools, hospitals,
prisons, factories; universities, assisted
living and nursing care facilities, etc.)
6) Regional chain groceries
7) Food marts
8) Convenience stores
9) Florists
10) Liquor Stores
11) Buffet restaurants
12) Sit-down restaurants
PECI Program Services
Service 1. Initiathig Customer Contact: PECI will contact the City before making customer
. contact. PECI will work out any of the City's specific requirements before initial customer
contact is made. Specific actions a City may require for initial contact may include anyone of the
following:
1. The City will generate a letter to be mailed to its customer base informing them about
program opportunities. The letter will outline next steps in the process and provides
program contact information for scheduling audits. PECI will then call customer and
provIde additional information if needed and schedule date and time for audit.
As the program gains momentum, local contractors may become interested in leveraging the
program in tneir calls: Contractors may see the benefits of promoting the EnergySmart Program
to their customers, which might spur market activity and result in increased energy savings.
Contractor actions are not controlled by this Service Agreement.
Service 2. Audit Appointment Scheduled: After the above pre-requirements are met, PECI
program staff will sched~le an appointment with the customer. PECI will communicate dates and
times for all scheduled ~udits along with a list of customers contacted and whether they accepted,
declined or were not able to be reached. The City is welcome to attend any of the audits.
Not eyery customer will receive an audit from the program. Experience shows that many facilities
can take action through a well trained cadre of contractors and that an audit does not deliver the
same return in terms of energy saving activity. Soliciting audits is at the discretion ofPECI and
will be made on a case-by-case basis. Any audit requests made by the City or customer will be
fulfilled. ..
Service 3. Conducting Audit: Store type will determine the variety of audit needed to move the
customer forward. Larger facilities with .complex refrigeration loads, such as national chain
Service Agreement (v2): Attachment A
I
supermarkets, regional chain groceries and independent groceries, will receive a comprehensive
audit and report. The comprehensive audit and report will include:
1. Detailed walkthrough assessment ofthe store conditions and equipment
2. Site specific recommendations with projected cost savings, payback, estimate ofproject .
cost and projected City incentive
3. Letter outlining recommendations
4. Pictures of store conditions (as needed)
5. Input report of store conditions
6. Program materials such as rebate applications, marketing materials, etc. .
Smaller facilities such as food marts, comer groceries, convenience stores, fast food
establishments, florists, etc. will receive a site assessment. A site assessment will include the
following:
1. Detailed walk through assessment of the store conditions and equipment
2. 'Discussion with store decision maker around Field Energy Analyst (FEA) assessment
3. Program materials such as rebate applications, marketing materials, etc.
These smaller facilities typically do not have the sophisticated refrigeration system loads and
therefore do not require the extensive audit report. If an FEA determines a smaller facility
warrants the comprehensive energy saving report one will be produced.
Where appropriate, the FEA may decide to install small, quick payback items on the first store
visit. These items may include: (please list what other measures the FEA might install that the
City will not be able to claim)
1. Cooler Miser controls: Cooler Misers use a passive infrared sensor to determine
occupancy in the area of the cooler. These devices will be installed on beverage
merchandisers in stores that do not operate 24 hours a day.
2. Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs): CFLs may be installed in walk-in coolers and
freezers, check-out stands, offices and other spaces that are currently utilizing
incandescent bulbs.
The installation serves two purposes. First and foremost, it produces immediate success, gaining
the trust ofthe business and engendering good will for the program. Secondly, it ensures savings
at every site, even if the business decides not to move forward with larger retrofits. BP A is
paying for the installation of the quick payback measures stated above and therefore claims the
savings.
Service 4. Managing and Enrolling Contractors: To effectively service BPA's large territory
and maximize resources PECI will train and manage a group of contractors to communicate the
ES Program and provide retrbfits. To accomplish this, PECI will have two levels of contractor
relationships: Preferred and Participating. The methods for recruiting, training and overseeing
quality assurance for all contractors participating in the program is outlined below.
Preferred Contractors
Preferred Contractors will have a high level of collaboration with the Program. These contractors
will help service the small, hard to reach refrigeration businesses such as convenience, fast food,
comer markets, and others. These smaller stores typically have refrigeration systems and energy
requirements that are less complicated then a full size grocery store and do not always necessitate
a full EnergySmart audit. Energy efficient measures will be identified through trained and
managed vendor relationships.
Service Agreement (v2): Attachment A
2
PEClhas strict requirements for Preferred Contractors (Please provide license, and minimum
insurance and bond requirements for Preferred Contractors). Contractors are chosen for their high
quality of work, ability to understand and adapt to new processes and effectiveness in the market.
Participating Contractors
Participating Contractors will likely be the larger refrigeration contractor and supply companies.
Participating Contractors will likely follow the FEA Energy Saving Report recommendations or
generate their own leads. Some of the Participating Contractors will come from the store personal
contractor relationships. These contractors will be trained about the program and requirements as
they arise.
PECI will meet with all contractors to evaluate their skills and level of interest in working with
theProgr~m. Interested contractors will be required to complete a Contractor Participation
. Application (Please provide copy of Contractor Participation Application to City and license,
insurance and bond requirements for Participating Contractors) and receive marketing materials,
training and general support from the Program.
PECI cannot prevent contractors from contacting their customers and promoting the Program. If
PECI determines a contractor has been misrepresenting the Program by any means, PECI will
immediately contact the contractor to resolve the issue.
Service 5. Technical Design Review: The Program can provide a technical design review for
proposed work in a store on equipment such as multiplex, efficient compressors and efficient
condensers. A formal technical review is conducted on system oriented projects and a letter will
be provided noting potential rebates and whether or not proposed items meet the Program terms
and conditions. This service is designed to assist in the decision making process of purchasing
energy saving equipment. This review can be requested by the program FEA or customer.
Service 6. Process rebates and Reporting: see Attachment B
Service 7. Program Communication: PECI will keep City informed around program activity
and audits. PECI will provide the following information as necessary to City:
· Listing of customer audits performed
. Electronic version of audited store Energy Saving Report (What software is used for
. reporting?)
Projected monetary commitments
PECI program staff will also be in communication with the City in person, phone and email as
necessary .
Service 8. Determining installed kWh savings: PECI will use its Regional Technical Forum
approved proprietary modeling software, GrocerSmart, to determine energy savings by measure
installed. The energy savings are based on DOE-2 parametric runs and engineering calculations
which account for many variables including the facility's particular climate zone, compressor
configuration, condenser type, condenser degradation factors, and hours of operation. PECl's
software estimates are site and climate specific. PECI will use these savings calculations when
submitting measure Carts to the City.
PECI will also derive prescriptive energy savings for measures that do not require an onsite audit.
These measures are not climate or system specific. BP A has accepted these calculations for the
purpose of PTR reporting.
Service Agreement (v2): Attachment A
3
Lighting savings will be estimated using the BP A Commercial/Industrial Lighting Offer (CILO)
procedures.
Gaskets and auto-closers . .
Gaskets and auto-closers for reach-in and walk-in doors are low to no cost energy saving
measures. The program utilizes these measures to deliver irrimediate energy savings while
. building the relationship with the store to move them forward with larger, more complex energy
opportunities.
PECl adopted the California Public Utility Commissions (CPUC) saving methodology for these
measures. The Regional Technical Forum has reviewed the CPUC's methodology and determined
that there is not enough empirical. evidence to justify the proposed savings. However,.they do feel
that these measures are worthwhile and save energy. The Regional Technical Forum has created a
subcommittee to perform onsite monitoring and lab testing in order to better understand the actual
savings for thes~ measures.
Until the Regional Technical Forum has fmalized the energy savings these measures are no
longer available for an incentive from the City. BP A believes the test data will show good savings
and will reinstate these measures after the savings have been verified. Until the analysis is
complete BP A is offering to pay for these measures through program administrative funds. No
savings will be claimed by the City or BP A until savings have been approved by the Regional
Technical Forum.
Service 9. Post-Installation Inspections
PECI shall be responsible for all on-site inspections and compliance with all BP A requirements.
PECI will provide lOO percent verification that measures are installed and operating through
reviewing applications, installing contractor invoices and other technical documents (as
applicable) for all installed measures. Measures with a total project cost (installation and
materials) exceeding $5,000 will receive an on-site inspection from Program staff. A project is
defmed as the installation of measures at a customer facility. A customer may have multiple
projects throughout the duration ofthe program, which mayor may not require an on-site
. inspection.
Example of when an on-site inspection is required: Store A receives work on gaskets and auto-
closers in May and the total project cost is $3,500. PECl will verify by reviewing applications and
installing contractor invoices. In July, Store A installs night covers with a project cost of $10,000.
PECl will perform on-site inspection to verify night cover installation.
For all on-site inspections, the FEA will complete and sign a post-installation form, and rebates
are not issued until the Program receives the completed post-installation form.
Controls may have a project cost over $5,000 but not require an on-site inspection ifthe customer
or contractor can provide sufficient documentation that the controls are installed and performing
properly.
Under current Commercial & Industrial Lighting rules, utilities are required to perform a pre and
post inspection. Therefore, either PECI, or its representative, or the City representative must
perform both inspections to count energy savings for measures subject to these requirements. .

Service 10. Reporting via Planning, Tracking and Reporting (PTR) system: After installation
is verified through appropriate verification and frequency as stated above, PECI will generate and
submit EnergySmart PTR Shopping Cart to City. The Shopping Cart will include the following
information:
· Store information including site address, store type, building identification where
applicable
· Identification of audits performed prior to the installation using the unique ill function
· Measures installed reference number
· Rebate per measure (the amount to be reimbursed/credited by BP A)
· kWh savings per measure(s)
· Supporting documents such as invoices, applications, spec sheets, etc. will be sent to
City under separate cover (email). .
Measure Cart will be submitted to City for acceptance. City review process is outlined in option
one and two of Attachment B.
Measure List and Rebates
Approved measure list and specifications will be available via the PTR system. Any approved
savings values associated with a measure are also found on the PTR site. Measures without
savings values means a measure where the GrocerSmart model will be used to calculate the
savings values. For strip curtains, auto closers, and door gaskets, BP A will also accept retroactive
savings for measures that are approved by the RTF.
Refrigeration rebate values can be found on the program rebate application. PECI may change the
rebate application and refrigeration rebate values with prior approval of the City anytime during
the Agreement (at the City service territory level, where program implementation costs justify
such a change).
The incentive to the City remains the same as provided in the PTR. PECI must work with the City
to determine what the rebate to the consumer will be if it is different than that provided in the
PTR. PECI may add measures to their rebate list based on these agreements with the City. PECI
