Elk River <br /> Municipal Utilities <br /> 13069 Orono Parkway phone: 763.441.2020 <br /> Elk River. MN 55330 Fax 763.441 8099 <br /> October I1. 2004 <br /> To: Bryan Adams <br /> From: Vance Zehringer <br /> Subject: Commercial Rebate For Elk River Area Schools <br /> Elk River Area Schools if applying for rebates totaling $17,989.25 for retrofitting a <br /> number of electric energy use systems at Salk Middle School. Please find attached, <br /> 1. A rebate request for installation of 32 occupancy sensors at a project cost of <br /> $6,024.64. Our rebate is $47 for ceiling mount occupancy sensors for a total <br /> rebate of $1,504. <br /> 2. A rebate request for installation of 18 premium efficiency pump and fan motors in <br /> the HVAC system. These motors are part of an HVAC system upgrade that cost <br /> $279,500. Our rebate is $6.50 per horsepower for a total rebate of$1,485.25. <br /> 3. A rebate request for installation of 15 variable frequency drives (VFDs) at a <br /> project cost of$27,500. Our rebate is $40 per horsepower for a total rebate of <br /> $7,040. Our maximum rebate per customer for VFDs however, is $5,000, so that <br /> is the rebate total approved for this project. <br /> 4. A rebate request for installation of 49 variable air volume (VAV) boxes as part of <br /> the air distribution system. These VAVs replaced a constant air volume system so <br /> they reduce energy consumption appreciably. Project cost was $37,275. Our <br /> rebate is $260 per VAV box for a total rebate of$12,740. Our maximum rebate <br /> per customer for VAV boxes however, is $10,000, so that is the total approved for <br /> this project. <br /> I have already run these requests by Connexus personnel, and they believe everything is <br /> in order They also indicated that we can go over the original 2004 commercial allotment <br /> of$14,071. They have not used up their allotment from GRE and GRE will be <br /> reallocating funds that were not used by other utilities in the near future, so there's <br /> adequate funds to continue pursuing new prospects as well. <br />
