  2. Vet Med Chiller Plant

    Associated Project(s): 
    ICECF 2009 Lighting Retrofit [ARCHIVED]

    As part of the ICECF 2009 Lighting Retrofit, 115 T-12 fixtures in the Vet Med Chiller Plant were replaced with more energy-efficient T-8 fixtures. This switch will incur an Annual kWh Savings of 28,742 hours. The simple payback for this project is -0.2 years.

  7. Illinois State Water Survey

    Associated Project(s): 
    ICECF 2009 Lighting Retrofit [ARCHIVED]

    As part of the ICECF 2009 Lighting Retrofit, 1,154 T-12 fixtures in nine buildings belonging to the Illinois State Water Survey were replaced with more energy-efficient T-8 fixtures. This switch will incur an Annual kWh Savings of 181,017 hours. The simple payback for this project is -2.45 years.

  16. Energy presentation at Undergrad Library

    Associated Project(s): 
    Presentations with Energy Liaisons [ARCHIVED]

    Prior to the first Energy Liaison on-site presentation, Andy met with the two library staff that will be staffing the booth and talked about content and logistics. They selected a great location, just inside the West entrance to the Upper Level with a prime display location. They also pulled a book display which relates to energy and sustainability for the Lower Level. They are excited about the display and already have talked about moving it around their organization to continue to promote conservation! The date and time for the display is 10-2 on October 29 in the Undergrad Library.

  17. IUB Retrocommissioning and Occupancy Sensors Loan

    Associated Project(s): 
    Occupancy and Daylight Sensors
    Student Sustainability Committee (SSC)
    FY10 RCx

    Program Background:

    The Student Sustainability Committee (SSC) is tasked with the allocation of the proceeds of two student environmental fees – the Clean Energy Technology Fee and the Sustainable Campus Environment Fee, to improve the sustainability of our campus. The committee has established a program to make funds available for efficiency projects that will be later returned for reinvestment in future projects.

    Committee funds will be made available to the Office of Sustainability which will carry out an inter-departmental transfer to the Receiving campus unit. The Receiving unit agrees to return the transfer to the Office of Sustainability, in installments, as described on the next page, for reuse by the SSC.

    Project Description:            

    The Illini Union seeks funding to retro-commission the Illini Union Bookstore building, and to install Occupancy Sensors in the Illini Union building. The Illini Union Bookstore building contains both academic and auxiliary units, and the SSC loan will allow for complete retro-commissioning of the building. Retro-commissioning is expected to cost $113,000; the RCx process identifies defective components within the HVAC systems, reconfiguring and controlling them to function more efficiently, decreasing wear and tear and extending their service life by 20 years (as part of a regular preventative maintenance program), as well as reducing building energy consumption.

    The SSC loan will also provide $67,000 to install lighting occupancy sensors in the Illini Union, in food service preparation areas, restrooms, office areas and meeting rooms, which will reduce energy and lighting use.

    Terms:

    The Student Sustainability Committee is in favor of the Office of Sustainability transferring an amount of $180,000 to the Illini Union completion of this work. These funds are to be drawn from the Sustainable Campus Environment Fee account managed by the SSC, as needed to complete the project. All funds requested from the SSC must be expended before 30th September 2010, else the unit must apply for an extension.

    The Illini Union agrees to return the funds provided by carrying out annual transfers to the Office of Sustainability due on the 15th of August of each year in the following manner:

    $20,000 – Due 15th August 2011

    $40,000 – Due 15th August 2012

    $40,000 – Due 15th August 2013

    $40,000 – Due 15th August 2014

    $40,000 – Due 15th August 2015

    The Office of Sustainability will direct them back to the Committee’s account. The Illini Union will provide a close-out report about the project after installation. The Illini Union will also appropriately publicize the Committee’s support of these projects.

    All funds provided by this transfer will be used in a manner consistent with University of Illinois policies and procedures.

  18. Roger Adams Laboratory (completed)

    Associated Project(s): 
    ICECF 2009 Lighting Retrofit [ARCHIVED]

    A portion of the T-12 fixtures in the Roger Adams Laboratory were retrofitted in the 2008 leg of the ICECF Lighting Retrofit. The remaining 2,064 fixtures were replaced in the 2009 Retrofit, however, allowing an additional Annual kWh Savings of 157,759 hours. The Simple Payback for the replacing these fixtures in the remaining portion of the building is 3.34 years.

  19. Undergraduate Library

    Associated Project(s): 
    ICECF 2009 Lighting Retrofit [ARCHIVED]

    As part of the ICECF 2009 Lighting Retrofit, 2,294 T-12 fixtures in the Undergraduate Library were replaced with the more energy-efficient T-8 fixtures. This switch will incur an Annual kWh Savings of 508,525 hours. The simple payback for this project is -0.17 years.
