UC/CSU/Utility Energy Efficiency Partnership
The University of California/California State University (UC/CSU) and Investor-Owned Utility (IOU) Energy Efficiency Partnership is a unique, statewide energy efficiency program that accomplishes immediate, long-term peak energy and demand savings, and establishes a permanent framework for a sustainable, long-term, comprehensive energy management program at the UC and CSU campuses served by California's four large IOUs.
Program Elements
- Retrofit Projects
Energy Efficiency Retrofits The Energy Efficiency Retrofit element of the program involves implementation
of energy efficiency retrofit projects providing cost-effective
energy savings during the 2004-05 program implementation period
- Monitoring Based Commissions (MBC)
Monitoring Based Commissioning (MBC) This
element of the program is a unique approach to obtaining savings
that combines the expertise of the Universities' statewide
campus facility management staff, additional utility and subcontractor
expertise, and the installation of energy monitoring and metering
equipment at the building submeter and system level. Through
these resources, a systematic, comprehensive continuous commissioning
program will be developed. First, the campuses will install sufficient equipment to insure an extensive
and comprehensive built-in measurement and verification capability.
Second, this element of the program will be combined with the
third element (Energy Efficiency Education and Best Practices
Development and Training) to become a "continuous commissioning" program,
that is institutionalized at the campuses for the foreseeable
future. In this way, savings will be sustained well beyond
those from the more typical and limited retro-commissioning
programs. Third, the program will identify new cost-effective
retrofit opportunities to be proposed for funding in the next
CPUC solicitation cycle.

- Training & Educaton
Energy Efficiency Education and Best Practices Development and Training The Energy Efficiency Education and Best Practices Development and Training element of the program will develop a comprehensive program for energy education and information exchange among the UC/CSU/Community College campus energy and facility managers and with the IOUs. This program will provide a venue for those individuals responsible for managing energy use on campuses to share information and experiences related to facility operations, best practices, and successful retrofit projects, among other issues. This is an information and education program that will develop and share best practice operating methods and technologies applicable to university campus facilities...
