They have installed a <br /> 450 kW generator and will be able to drop off the ERMU distribution system during peak <br /> times. By dropping off the system they will be able to lower their monthly demand <br /> charges. <br /> • The landfill gas plant had engines#3 and #4 replaced on December 18`h. A total of three <br /> engines were installed in December and production is back up to historical levels. The <br /> next engine to be replaced will be engine#1 in 2016. The Star News ran an article online <br /> about the engine replacement. The article is attached. <br /> • ERMU issued over$67,000 in energy efficient rebates in December. The last quarter of <br /> the year always has the highest rebates. The largest rebates this year went to ISD 728 for <br /> the installation of two chillers and variable frequency drives for the water pumps of the <br /> chiller. <br /> • Updated 2014 commercial and residential rebate forms. The C&I forms are available <br /> online and by request. The residential rebate form along with LED and CFL coupons <br /> have been printed to be mailed to all residential electric customers. <br /> ATTACHMENT: <br /> • Star News article: "Landfill gas plant replaces three engines" <br /> E. ► e u n i .
