EXHIBIT F CONTRACTOR’S M&V RESPONSIBILITIES CONTRACTOR’S MEASUREMENT & VERIFICATION RESPONSIBILITIES Scope of Services: The CONTRACTOR shall provide the services identified in the summary table included in this section:  All pre-and post-retrofit measurements as needed to verify each Facility Improvement Measure (FIM) as noted in the table.  First Year Annual Report to the CLIENT to verify that guaranteed savings have been met or determine if guaranteed savings have not been met and to establish ongoing units of energy saved for future annual reports.  Additional Annual Reports to update the Annual Savings with updated utility rates based on the average cost of utilities of the previous 12 months. This Exhibit details the individual responsibilities of the CONTRACTOR, not otherwise set forth in this Guaranteed Energy Savings Agreement, in connection with the management and administration of the Savings Guarantee. CONTRACTOR’s Equipment: The CONTRACTOR may provide tools, documentation, panels, or other equipment in the facility for the CONTRACTOR’s convenience in performing the CONTRACTOR’s Measurement and Verification Responsibilities. That equipment shall remain the CONTRACTOR’s property. The CONTRACTOR retains the right to remove such items at any time during the term, or upon the termination of CONTRACTOR’s Measurement and Verification Responsibilities. Measurements and Verification Methods: The CONTRACTOR shall use the following methods as outlined in the table, to measure and verify utility savings throughout the term of this Agreement. The approach to M&V is based on the International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP) Volume 1 2012 (January 2012). IPMVP Volume 1 is a guidance document describing common practice in measuring, computing, and reporting savings achieved by energy or water efficiency projects at end user facilities. The IPMVP presents a framework and the four M&V options. For purposes of this Agreement, the Parties have also included an additional M&V Option – “Stipulated” savings. “Stipulated” savings are not subject to measurement or verification and do not include M&V activities and is utilized on FIMs where the costs to accurately calculate, measure, or monitor the projected savings would be greater than the anticipated savings value. Option Description Typical Applications Savings are determined by partial field measurements of key IPMVP Type A: Partially Measured energy uses which is applied to the FIM. Estimates of the non- A Retrofit Isolation with Stipulated Values key parameters are used for the savings calculations. Savings are determined by field measurement of the energy use B IPMVP Type B: Retrofit Isolation of the system which the FIM was applied. Savings are determined by measuring energy use at the utility meter. Corrections are made for weather and other factors C IPMVP Type C: Whole Facility impacting savings. Savings are determined by building simulation (building D IPMVP Type D: Calibrated Simulation modeling). Used where cost to accurately calculate and/or measure E Stipulated Savings savings would exceed anticipated savings. EXHIBIT F Page 1 of 4
