FEMP Training Catalog

This course helps building operators, building managers, and students reduce operating costs and provide energy savings to the buildings they are responsible for or will be responsible for in the future. Throughout this course, you learn the initial steps involved in re-tuning a building with a building automation systems (BAS) and practice identifying opportunities for energy improvements while deciding how to re-tune for increased efficiency.

Course focuses on four specific energy conservation measures (ECMs) that are underutilized in federal energy savings performance contracts (ESPCs) due to common implementation barriers, such as savings-flow uncertainty or unevenness, baselining difficulties, and measurement and verification process ambiguities.

The training will present how an agency can prepare for the evaluation and assessment of the contractor's energy savings performance contract (ESPC) project proposal, specifically the technical proposal. It will also cover, how the technical proposal meets the task order request for proposal requirements and ensuring the measurement and verification plan does not conflict with the risk, responsibility, and performance matrix.

This training educates attendees who work with performance contracts to follow FEMP's guidance on escalation rates and to use the Energy Escalation Rate Calculator (EERC). In addition, it trains attendees on the proper use of the online NIST/FEMP EERC tool, including the handling of carbon pricing.

This training helps students gain a quick understanding of energy savings performance contract (ESPC) and utility energy service contract (UESC) task order (TO) schedules that are a key component of the preliminary assessment, investment grade audit proposal, and task order contract of ESPCs and UESCs.
