1. OVERVIEW AND SUMMARY
The benefits and costs of installing Name of Project at ABC Co. are summarized in this report. THIS IS A VERY BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT. SHOULD BE SHORT AND TO THE POINT
This report is prepared through the Delmarva Power C&I Energy Efficiency Program - Custom Incentives. The Program is designed to assist Delmarva Power’s commercial and industrial sector customers with energy-efficiency and energy-saving investments by preparing technical analysis studies and providing capital-improvement financial incentives.

· A more detailed description of the project including discussions of existing equipment, planned improvements, and the method used to estimate project benefits are presented in Section 2.
· This is followed in Section 3 by a discussion of the method for verifying savings.
· Section 4 presents a description of the next steps.
· The appendices contain a summary of Program incentives, study contacts, project capital cost estimates, pictures of existing equipment, and supporting calculations and data.

· High-level description of current process/equipment
· High-level description of planned improvement
· Installation plans, with dates (project start and completion).
1.3 Electricity Savings Estimate
It is estimated that electricity use will be reduced by XXX MWh, Y% of current Name of End Use usage. IN THE CASE OF A DETAILED CALCULATION, THE BOTTOM LINE WILL GO HERE, WITH A BRIEF EXPLANATION OF METHOD BELOW.
· This estimate is based on . . . A summary of the calculations is provided below. (Details are provided in Appendix E). INCLUDE APPENDIX E ONLY IF NEEDED.
1.3.1 Program Baseline
PROVIDE A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAM BASELINE, INCLUDING SOURCE. FOR EXAMPLE: This is an energy efficiency improvement project. The baseline is current energy usage levels. Production levels are not expected to change substantially in the near future.
1.4 Project Economics
Highlights of project economics are summarized in Exhibit 2 below.[1] NOTE THAT THE TOTAL ANNUAL kWh SAVINGS NEED TO BE ALLOCATED ACROSS FOUR TIME PERIODS.

Explain and show in Appendix C how the cost allocation was developed.
2. PROJECT DETAILS
WHERE THE PROJECT IS COMPRISED OF MORE THAN ONE EEM, THERE WILL BE SEPARATE SECTIONS (2.1, 2.2 . . .); ONE FOR EACH EEM. IF THE PROJECT CONSISTS OF A SINGLE EEM, DETAILS WILL BE PLACED IN SECTION 2, WITH NO SUBSECTIONS.
Details of the Project name Project for ABC Company are presented in this section. Each section contains a description of the existing conditions, the recommended opportunity, and the energy savings/productivity enhancement calculations.

3. NEXT STEPS: IMPLEMENTATION
Upon receipt of pre-installation Approval of this project and an Incentive Offer from the Program Office, the next steps in the process are:
· The customer shall select a contractor/vendor if it has not already done so.
· The customer shall, if costs of the project change based on selection of a contractor /vendor, notify the Program Office of that change.
· The Program Office will then issue a revised pre-approval.
· The customer shall complete the installation of the project.
· When the project is complete, the customer will notify the program office and will provide detailed information on variations between this study report and the actual installation and planned operation of EEM equipment.
· Upon satisfactory completion of a post-installation inspection (if required), and receipt and review of all final project documentation, we will prepare the incentive check and forward it to the customer or their designated payee.

APPENDIX A: PROGRAM INCENTIVES
Incentives are calculated based on the difference between the baseline (pre-project) electricity usage and enhanced (post-project) electricity usage.
· Productivity enhancements qualify for incentives when they reduce electricity use per unit of production.
· In many “support” applications (HVAC and lighting systems) output will not change, so the incentive is based on the amount of electricity saved.
The program will pay incentives based on the annual energy savings resulting for the project, after the project has been completed and installation has been inspected and verified to result in the savings estimated in this report, or on an adjusted savings based on the actual project installed, if it varies from the project planned and described in this report. The rate used (in cents per annual kWh saved) shall be determined by the Delmarva Power program office.
Incentives will usually be restricted so that the project simple payback after incentives is no less than 1.5 years. (Projects which payback in less than 1.5 years will not be given incentives.)
Projects that result in annual energy savings of less than 50,000 kWh are discouraged. (The cost of applying for and approving and processing such small projects is not justified.)
Incentive will be limited to $250,000 per Delmarva Power electric account (including all incentive applications in a program year. And no customer (via multiple accounts) shall be eligible for more than $500,000 in program incentives in a single program year.
Incentives for any project shall not exceed 50% of the total installed project cost.
