Qualified Energy Savings Projects
These projects will lower energy costs, increase energy efficiency, and thereby provide energy savings to the Indiana Department of Correction’s Branchville Correctional Facility. Some of these projects will lower operational costs by replacing or improving current energy related systems that are old, outdated, inefficient, and/or expensive to maintain. Others will enhance, retrofit, and improve controls of current energy related systems at the Branchville facility. The Vendor will install and implement these projects and measures within eighteen (18) months of the execution date of the contract resulting from this RFP.
All of the projects will, in the aggregate, pay for themselves in energy, operational, or cost savings within a 10 year period. The Vendor must enter into an energy savings guarantee with the Department of Correction guaranteeing the energy savings, cost savings, and operational savings, produced by the energy savings projects and conservation measures will occur during the 10 year immediately following the installation and implementation of the projects, with savings demonstrated in each year of the 10 year period.
