UVM Campus Renewable Energy Feasibility Study Building: Gucciardi Fitness Center- 147 Spear St, Burlington VT

Solar System Annual Output: 47232 kWh % offset: 1.29 %

Applicable Incentives A detailed summary of applicable incentives is included 1. Vermont Small Scale Renewable Energy Incentive Program: $2.25/watt DC up to 10 kW, $1.50/W DC for next 50 kW (up to 60 kW). Maximum incentive $97,500 or up to 50% of project costs (whichever is lower). 2. Burlington Electric Department metering for $.20 per kWh. Notes: 1. Structural analysis of the roof for ability to support the proposed solar PV system will be required. This should be coordinated with the structural engineer’s ballast requirement calculations. These have been included in the estimated cost. 2. Installed cost includes all materials, labor, design, engineering‌etc. based on observed market conditions in Q2 2012. 3. Financial analysis assumes BED utility 4. Electrical engineering/design of interconnection required (included in est. cost) 5. Roof substrate is assumed to be EPDM rubber 6. Roof conditions should be field verified and confirmed to be OK for installation. Coordinate with manufacturer to ensure continuation 7. *Annual electric usage includes fieldhouse and gymnasium 8. Offset is calculated for total annual electric usage 9. Electricity will be directly fed into the grid, so the building offset is the equivalent amount
