FEMP Training Catalog

This training provides attendees with an understanding of energy savings project contract (ESPC) project development phase one which includes measurement and verification, technical proposal review, and the risk, responsibility, and performance matrix (RRPM). Task order schedules are thoroughly reviewed so attendees learn the purpose of each and recognize the pricing and financing aspects of an ESPC project.

This training provides attendees with an overview of the implementation/construction period activities and includes a discussion of agency responsibilities, invoices and payments, and annual measurement and verification activities during the performance period. The contents of the contract management plan will be thoroughly reviewed so attendees are able to identify the differences between traditional performance contracting implementation and construction period activities and responsibilities.

Training sections cover a high-level understanding of what an ESPC is and how it is used to accomplish energy improvements, task order ordering procedures, contractor selection, risk and responsibility, measurement and verification, applicable financial schedules, pricing and financing aspects of the project, and post award contract administration including FEMP's Life of Contract services.

This 2019 Energy Exchange recorded session (Track 4, Session 6) explores energy storage, which can contribute to resilience through optimization of renewable generation sources, provision of isolated regional or local power, and aid the restoration and startup of systems.

This 2020 Energy Exchange Extra session discusses real-life examples of energy savings performance contracts (ESPCs), utility energy service contracts (UESCs), and ESPC ENABLE projects converting a variety of energy conservation measures (ECMs) and focuses on best practices and lessons learned during project development, financing, construction, and the performance period.

Recorded webinar educates attendees (federal employees, utility, energy service company representatives) on how they can use eProject Builder (ePB) for their utility energy service contract (UESC) projects.

This training will educate attendees on how to use the eProject Builder (ePB) greenhouse gas (GHG) calculation tool to develop estimates of project GHG emissions, and to compare different project scenarios' potential GHG emissions impacts.

Recorded webinar is the first of a series that provides information, best practices, and resources for implementing energy savings performance contract (ESPC) energy sales agreement (ESA) projects.

Recorded webinar covers technical, economic, and other photovoltaic project considerations. Technical topics discussed also include cost-effectiveness, resilience, cybersecurity, and electrical considerations.

This training is designed to provide fleet managers and coordinators with the skills and knowledge to become subject matter experts in EV implementation. The first of this four-part training focuses on the importance of EV technology and financial considerations for agencies considering fleet electrification, and serves as an introduction to electric vehicle technology and considerations for electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) installation.
