(2) The contracting
agency will enter the information into the ODOE 1.5 Percent for Green Energy
Technology database using an online form provided by the department and
accessible from the department website.
(3) Information entered in the ODOE 1.5
Percent for Green Energy Technology database must include, but not be limited
to:
(a) Project name;
(b) Address of public building;
(c) Name of contracting agency;
(d) Contact information for reporting person;
(e) Utility companies serving the
building;
(f) Date the contracting
agency first advertised or otherwise solicited a contract for the construction,
reconstruction or major renovation of the public building;
(g) Total contract price;
(h) Total insured building value (renovation
projects);
(i) Whether the project
includes previously deferred funds, the name of the previous project(s), the
amount of the deferred funds, and the aggregate amount of funds to be spent on
the current project;
(j) Projected
start of construction and occupation date of building;
(k) Description of the proposed green energy
technology or woody biomass energy technology;
(l) Location details of the green energy
technology installation or woody biomass energy technology;
(m) Disclosure of non-public funds used in
financing the green energy technology or woody biomass energy technology;
(n) Estimated annual energy
production or savings of the green energy system or woody biomass energy
system;
(o) For woody biomass
projects, the projected cost of fuel on a per dry ton basis, including delivery
costs;
(p) Contracting agency
determination of whether green energy technology or woody biomass energy
technology is appropriate at the public building site or away from the public
building site, or contracting agency decision to defer the expenditure;
(q) Technical review panel
recommendation;
(r) Future project
to which funds will be deferred and projected start of construction of the
future building, if applicable and future project is known;
(s) The aggregate amount of funds the
contracting agency has deferred but not yet used for green energy technology or
woody biomass energy technology in another project;
(t) Cost-effectiveness comparison between
green energy technology or woody biomass energy technology away-from-the-site
of the public building compared to green energy technology or woody biomass
energy technology at the site of public building under construction or
renovation, if applicable;
(u)
Evidence of additional new renewable energy generation from green energy
technology or woody biomass energy technology installed at the
away-from-the-site location, if applicable;
(v) Information regarding consolidation of
simultaneous projects, if applicable;
(v) The results of an analysis of the
area-weighted average total solar resource fraction available for use at the
site; and
(w) Specifications and
details regarding the energy use efficiency improvements, including energy
model file and results as requested by the department, if applicable.
