It is accepted best practice to efficiency-retrofit before switching to carbon-neutral fuel--old leaky buildings will waste any fuel, in large volumes in frigid Vermont winters. A program of energy audits of these buildings needs to begin now to identify those most in need of retrofitting. These energy audits will be followed by the measures identified as necessary to seal the envelope of these downtown buildings. Measures funded will include: those required to seal the envelope of any particular building. These will most often be the sealing of air leaks into basements and out of attics via cellulose, two-part foam, and/or sprayfoam insulation types. identification of special measures required to prepare a building for connection to District Energy heat. identification of existing furnaces or boilers which must be moved or removed as part of preparation for connection to District Energy heat. efficient lighting fixtures HVAC repairs and upgrades, programmable thermostats.  removed materials will be disposed of using environmentally responsible methods. [DOE Boilerplate, edited: The program will have several advantages, including the first step in reduced energy usage; reduced operating costs for organizations and businesses, job creation for energy auditors, installers, and recyclers.] II. Funds Leveraged: [DOE Boilerplate, edited: We will leverage our block grant funding with [TBD] funding sources. We will enroll all qualified business for existing audit and weatherization incentives such as Green Mountain Powers . We have received commitments for a [TBD]% match from [TBD]. We will also work with local vendors and distributors to provide equipment and services to the small businesses served by the program.] III. Action Items: [DOE Boilerplate, edited: Program target goal is to audit and make recommendations for energy efficiency measures in [TBD] businesses over the next 24 months representing over [TBD %] of our local Chamber of Commerce members.] IV. Outreach/Education Efforts: Participants will be asked to enroll in a version of the Energy Efficiency Incentive Deli (a separate EECBG Activity) tailored to businesses, to learn about all incentive programs, DIY education/resources, and other help available at the time of their retrofit. [DOE Boilerplate: City staff will proactively contact local businesses and explaining the program benefits and scheduling audits. We will engage the general business community in energy efficiency events and the program to the greatest extent practical and implement a recognition program that recognizes early adopters who participated in the Program and those businesses that exceeded goals.] V. Metrics & Accountability: We will have participating property owners complete Efficiency Vermonts Fuel Useage Calculator worksheet at the time of the audit and again one year later; the two BTU/square foot snapshots will be compared. Cost savings will be estimated from the difference between the snapshots. We will also collect any metrics required by DOE. [DOE Boilerplate: Energy program achievements will be measured, and the lessons learned will be shared among the partnerships so that successful practices can be adopted by other community agencies throughout the State.] [DOE Boilerplate: we will collect Return On Investment (ROI) data for those business that follow through with the efficiency measure installations] May lose these. ?@]M + .
