32 Procurement Benefits Design/Bid/Build Procurement - Lowest responsive bidder Multiple prime No choice of equipment suppliers Risk - Owner responsible Funding - Many times generated through increased rates or capital reserves Performance Risk - Energy savings not verified or guaranteed ESCO Procurement Best life cycle value Single Prime (turn-key design/build) Choice of equipment suppliers Risk - ESCO responsible Funding - Generated though reallocation of existing operational spending (savings) Performance Risk - Savings guaranteed and verified 32
33 Funding Mechanism Summary Mechanism Format Application Period Qualified Energy Conservation Bonds Utility Rebate State Revolving Fund Performance Based Contracting WIFIA Low-interest borrowing Grant (cash incentive) Low-interest borrowing Cost sharing / external investor Low-interest borrowing, flexible terms Annual Rolling Annual N/A Annual or Semi-Annual Administrator State Treasury Michigan Agency for Energy Energy Provider MDEQ Michigan Finance Authority Facility Owner USEPA Multiple mechanisms can be combined to finance eligible projects 33
34 Wastewater Administrators Conference January 25, 2018 Financing Energy Efficiency Projects in Michigan Andrew Dow, Donohue & Associates 34
35 WIFIA Loan Program Similar to Clean Water and Drinking Water SRF programs in terms of the eligible projects, borrowers, and requirements Intended as alternative (or more likely a supplement) to SRF loans for BIG projects Interest rates are generally not as low as the SRF loan interest rates would be. WIFIA rates must be no less than yield on U.S. Treasury securities of similar maturity Disbursement and repayment schedule is intended to be extremely flexible on projectspecific basis to structure around other debt service and cash flow considerations Minimum project size is $20M in total eligible costs for served population of >25,000 Minimum project size of $5M for small communities WIFIA loan is capped at 49% of the eligible project costs (so it cannot be a stand-alone financing solution) Significant application fees for loan negotiation and execution Multiple projects can be combined and submitted under one WIFIA loan application if the total eligible costs meet the $20M (or $5M) minimum 35
