MidAmerican Energy Company ICCSD Lincoln Elementary School renovation and addition, Iowa City, IA Commercial New Construction © Willdan Verification Report October 23, 2019 Privileged and Confidential 3 Introduction This report documents the results of verification for several energy conservation strategies for the ICCSD Lincoln Elementary School renovation and addition project and shows the results of verification as compared to the baseline model. This report serves as a final document for verifying energy savings strategies implemented at this building located in Iowa City, IA. MidAmerican Energy Company offers the Commercial New Construction to assist project teams in evaluating potential energy conservation strategies for new and renovated building projects during the design and construction processes. During the design phase, the building owner selected a number of energy conservation strategies. In response, MidAmerican Energy Company offered an incentive for the implementation of these strategies. For this project, the owner selected Bundle 1 for implementation. For more information about selected results, please see the Bundle Requirements Document (from October 25, 2018). Upon construction completion, Willdan has verified the selected strategies via Construction Documents review, on site verification of the strategies selected (on August 2, 2019), and construction submittals. These measures provide projected energy cost savings of over $28,500 per year, in relation to the building baseline. The simple payback analysis shows that the MidAmerican Energy Company incentive has helped reduce the incremental costs associated with the energy conservation strategy investments in this building, resulting in a payback of 10.4 years. Energy Conservation Investments ‐ Simple Payback Analysis Project Incremental Construction Cost $359,240 Final MidAmerican Energy Company Incentive $61,158 Project Adjusted Incremental Cost $298,082 Annual Energy Cost Savings $28,576 Payback, with incentive (in years) 10.4 * The MidAmerican Energy Company Commercial New Construction incentive cannot reduce the simple payback below one year, may not exceed 70% of the total bundled incremental strategy costs, and is capped at $1 million per building.

Customers who elect to pursue “transport‐only” arrangements with MidAmerican Energy (including MidAmerican Unregulated Retail Service, or URS) may or may not be eligible for energy efficiency incentives. Customers receiving monthly metered natural gas transportation service pay into the energy efficiency cost recovery fund and are eligible for natural gas incentives; customers receiving daily metered natural gas transportation services do not pay into the fund and are not eligible for natural gas energy efficiency incentives. Any natural gas incentives quoted should be considered preliminary and for informational purposes only until eligibility is verified; natural gas purchasing arrangements and eligibility will be determined post‐construction during final verification. **MidAmerican Energy Company’s Commercial New Construction incentives cannot reduce the simple payback below one year, may not exceed 70% of the total bundled incremental strategy costs, and are capped at $1 million per building. *** Interior and exterior LED lighting equipment are not eligible to receive the prescriptive rebate because the invoice was not available.

The strategy and bundle results compare relative differences in net energy use for design alternatives. The results are not appropriate for system design and/or equipment selection; these are responsibilities of the registered design professionals of record. The actual energy use of this building will be different from simulated results. Building systems and other operating parameters provided by the design team and modeled by Willdan approximate actual conditions, but differences in weather, operating parameters, occupancy level, and changes that occur through the bidding and construction process will result in annual energy costs that will be different from what is predicted here. However, when a bundle of strategies is selected relative to other alternatives, its energy (and dollar) conserving value can be expected to remain constant relative to the other alternatives, and the magnitude of the cost should be approximately as predicted. Thus, implementation of a bundle of strategies offers the opportunity for energy savings, but the realization of those savings is the responsibility of the owner/operator of the building – not MidAmerican Energy Company or Willdan. Savings are not guaranteed.
