Proposal No. 10P12-03 Page 2
Energy management requires energy measurement. Assessing 9 East 71st Street's
current energy performance and establishing baselines are essential to generate cost
savings in any energy management plan. The process starts by conducting a high level
Energy Assessment to develop a profile and baseline of energy use for selecting and
implementing feasible energy conservation measures.
Typical annual energy cost savings could be as much as forty percent (40%). The
implementation costs will also vary depending on the energy conservation measures
selected and the desired simple payback. It is impossible to accurately estimate costs
and payback without performing a Comprehensive Energy Assessment.
SourceOne proposes to conduct a Comprehensive Energy Assessment of 9 East 71st
Street including mechanical spaces, machine rooms, halls, lobbies, elevator and any
significant energy consuming equipment. SourceOne's high level energy assessment
protocol is focused on:
Identifying energy efficiency measures to help increase productivity and
economic competitiveness and those that warrant further study.
Minimizing the capital and operating expenditures necessary to utilize the Energy
Conservation Measures in a reliable and cost effective manner.

OVERVIEW
The Comprehensive Energy Assessment identifies and evaluates potential Energy
Conservation Measures (ECM) and accomplishes two important tasks:
1 - To provide sufficient information to proceed with implementation of simple
Energy Conservation Measures (ECM)
2 - To provide enough information about more complicated ECM's so that the
customer can select specific ECM's for a targeted detailed evaluation.
The results of the Assessment will provide a starting point for setting 9 East 71st Street's
energy performance goals and establishing key metrics by which to measure the
projects success. A baseline assessment also provides a critical management tool for
identifying trends and focusing future efficiency efforts.
SourceOne will emphasize site-specific engineering analysis to ensure that all energy
conservation recommendations are truly workable and practical at the facility. Equally
important will be a thorough cost/benefit analysis to determine the cost-effectiveness of
any improvements available.
ENERGY SAVINGS OPPORTUNITIES
Potential energy conservation measures to be evaluated may include:
Central chiller plant evaluation and upgrade
3 Distributed Cooling alternatives
Y HVAC equipment evaluation and upgrade
s Energy Management System evaluation and
upgrade
Local HVAC controls
-3 Condensate heat recovery to pre-heat
Domestic Hot Water
s High efficiency motors for pumps and fans
3 Variable frequency drives for pumps and fans
Air-side economizer ("free cooling") during cool
weather
s. Insulate steam and condensate piping
s. Convert existing steam traps to high efficiency
venturi orifice types
3 Upgrade inefficient lighting as appropriate
is Lighting occupancy sensors in selected areas to turn off lights at unoccupied
times

SCOPE OF WORK
COMPREHENSIVE ENERGY ASSESSMENT
This section describes our proposed methodology for conducting the energy
Assessment. In general, we will be making a high level investigation of the energy
conservation opportunities available to 9 East 71st Street. Specific phases of work will
include:
• Building Energy Consumption Profile
• Building Infrastructure Survey
• Engineering and CosUBenefit Analysis
• Comprehensive Energy Assessment Report
Building Energy Consumption Profile
In order to become familiar with the building and its historical energy consumption,
SourceOne must understand the intent of the building design, its current operational
procedures, maintenance history and utility consumption in energy and dollars.
SourceOne will:
• Examine existing building documentation.
• Conduct interviews with property manager, engineering personnel and ownership
to identify actual & expected usage and facility requirements
• Review last two years of utility bills and develop load profiles for gas, steam and
electric consumption and demand.
• Analyze available metered utility data including steam, electric and natural gas
data.
• Review applicable available site drawings.
Building Infrastructure Survey
On-site fieldwork will be an important focus of our energy study. SourceOne will evaluate
existing & proposed cooling, heating and lighting infrastructure's energy efficiency.
SourceOne will perform the following:
• Interview facility personnel most familiar with the operation and maintenance of
the building to determine usage patterns, operation methodologies and
maintenance requirements.
• Examine building mechanical and electrical infrastructure to determine and
evaluate potential ECM improvements.

Proposal No. 10P12-03 Page 5
• Focus on improvements that will concentrate on control and operational changes
designed to lower operating costs without affecting the comfort and safety of
building occupants.
• Develop operational plan as required to reduce peak consumption and kWh
usage.
• Develop infrastructure upgrade plan as required, including conceptual level
drawings as needed.
Engineering and Cost/Benefit Analysis
Potential energy conservation measures and other client specified measures would be
subjected to intensive engineering and cost/benefit study to confirm payback and cost-
effectiveness. SourceOne's general methodology will include the following:
• Perform technical evaluations and discuss improvements with client to determine
practicality and effectiveness and where further study is warranted.
• Review potential conservation improvements for consistency with comfort
requirements and building operating standards.
• Analyze energy savings of the various improvements based on engineering
practice and incremental energy costs; analyze interactive effects of
improvements if necessary
• Consult with contractors, manufacturers, and suppliers as appropriate regarding
costs associated with implementing improvements
• Review any operation and maintenance savings
• Review recommendations with client and select final list of improvements
• Discuss any implementation options and/or restrictions
• Develop preliminary budget and time-table estimates for cooling, heating and
lighting infrastructure upgrades
• Secure preliminary budget and time-table estimates for infrastructure upgrades
Comprehensive Energy Assessment Report
Findings and recommendations will be presented in a written report at the conclusion of
the analysis. The final report will include the following elements:
• Executive summary of energy conservation measures, with aggregate costs and
savings information for entire program. Offer facility upgrade recommendations.
• Description of each recommended ECM improvement and measures considered
but not recommended.

• Implementation cost estimate for each recommended measure, with contractor
information or product literature as appropriate.
• Energy savings calculations for each improvement and discussion of other
benefits as applicable (greater reliability, improved operating control,
maintenance savings, enhanced comfort, etc.).
• Simple payback analysis for each energy conservation measure.
• Outline specifications and other information needed to proceed with
implementation.
Presentation
Proposal includes an on-site presentation of the final report to 9 East 71st Street
management team.
• Prepare outline of energy conservation options, recommendations and proposed
implementation solutions for presentation to owners and management.
