The
Federal Energy Management Program
(FEMP), within the DOE Office of
Energy Efficiency and Renewable
Energy (EERE), provides services, tools,
and expertise to Federal agencies to
help them achieve their legislated and
executive-ordered energy, greenhouse
gas, and water goals. These are
delivered through project, technical,
and program services. One of FEMP’s
major services is to support Federal
agencies in identifying, obtaining, and
implementing project funding for energy
projects through the use of ESPCs.
ESPCs allow Federal agencies to
accomplish energy savings projects
without up-front capital costs. In an
ESPC, a Federal agency contracts with
an ESCO, following a comprehensive
energy audit conducted by the ESCO of
a Federal facility to identify
improvements to save energy. In
consultation with the Federal agency,
the ESCO designs and constructs a
project that meets the agency’s needs
and arranges the necessary funding. The
ESCO guarantees that the improvements
will generate energy cost savings
sufficient to pay for the project over the
term of the contract. After the contract
ends, all additional cost savings accrue
to the agency. Contract terms up to 25
years are allowed.
