4 Making E3 Financially Sustainable: Current Funding and Future Options Historical Funding Process State Steering Committee Formation/Charter Identification of Assessment Suite Sources Assessment Costs Base triple assessment suite $15,000 to $25,000 Promotional Costs $10,000 to $20,000 per year Administrative Overhead/Implementation Follow-up 1 2 FTE s + Significant in-kind from partners Implementation 4
5 Making E3 Financially Sustainable: Current Funding and Future Options Historical Funding Process (cont.) Search for Funding Sources Grants EPA Waste Reduction Rural Development Economic Development Stimulus Prefunded government programs State Environmental P2 Industrial Assessment Centers MEP Lean Programs 5
6 Making E3 Financially Sustainable: Current Funding and Future Options Historical Funding Process (cont.) Search for funding Sources Utility Energy Efficiency Programs Private Foundations Client Contribution 6
7 Making E3 Financially Sustainable: Current Funding and Future Options Problems with Historical Model Myriad Sources Patchwork of multilateral agreements. Incompatible restrictions and covenants. Economically depressed Small or medium business Rural Energy Efficiency only P2 only 7
8 Making E3 Financially Sustainable: Current Funding and Future Options Problems with Historical Model (cont.) Inconsistent objectives and reporting requirements. Misalignment of covered regions with service territories of active partners. Misalignment of grant/benefactor objectives with partner missions and E3 Charter. Insufficient $ to support dedicated resource over a meaningful time horizon. 8
9 Making E3 Financially Sustainable: Current Funding and Future Options Problems with Historical Model (cont.) Time bounded: limits investment in strategic long range planning. No standards for effective use of $ Client qualification Level of subsidy Qualification of technical assessors Client deliverables Assessor collaboration requirements 9
10 Making E3 Financially Sustainable: Current Funding and Future Options Today Each client opportunity requires a custom funding solution. Future Vision National Dialogue on Sustainable E3 Funding. Cross functional team approach. Public/Private Partners committed to the process. Consistent and reliable funding solution 10
11 Making E3 Financially Sustainable: Current Funding and Future Options Future Solution Should Address What should be funded Promotion Technical Assessments Energy, Waste Minimization, LEAN --- Other? At what subsidy level and for how long. Post Assessment Follow-up/Reporting Administrative overhead. Cost effective sourcing of services. Commitment of funding sources. 11
12 Making E3 Financially Sustainable: Current Funding and Future Options Other considerations Service level requirements for funding eligibility Common, efficient application process Needs analysis Formula designs Market maturity impacts Performance based What should not be funded (eg. implementation) 12
13 Making E3 Financially Sustainable: Current Funding and Future Options Input from Regional Teams Input from Federal Partners Conclusions and Path Forward 13

15 E3 in Montana Agriculture Initial discussions began in spring 2012 Oct 2012 EPA Region 8 awarded Peaks to Prairies a Source Reduction Grant of $110,626 Objective: Through hands-on E3 assessments we work with our agricultural community to reduce energy consumption, increase productivity, minimize carbon emissions, prevent pollution, & drive innovation. Fall 2012 filled with a series of phone and personal meetings to discuss partnership opportunities with potential stakeholders 15
16 E3 in Montana Agriculture GOAL Our goal is to ensure that by participating in E3, we have put our agricultural producers in the best position possible to maximize available financial opportunities in order to implement E3 recommendations. What is the highest bar? 16
17 How do we make it happen 1. We need access to farmers land 2. We need lots of boots on the ground 3. Farmers need to tell farmers that this is a worthwhile process 17
18 Access it is a trust issue Reminder: Farms now have less than six months to prepare or amend and implement their Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plans. The compliance date for farms is May 10, DOL Youth Farm Labor Proposal 18

21 Partnerships Cooperative Extension Service, USDA Montana State University Extension Professionals in each county of the state are in place to help Montana agricultural producers and land owners increase profits, reduce loss, protect our food supply and sustain future resources. They have an established trust relationship with producers and are essential in: 1. Finding producers willing to participate in an E3 assessment 2. Communicating the benefits of an E3 assessment and subsequent implementation of recommendations, and 3. Communicating successful outcomes to other producers in the state. 21
22 Natural Resource Conservation Services (NRCS) - NRCS conservationists work on agricultural land through field offices that serve every county in the state. 1. NRCS has developed numerous technical tools such as the Cropland Energy Estimator that will be important in calculating many of the E3 metrics. 2. NRCS also has funding sources such as the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP). This is our highest bar, so we must ensure our assessments are compliant with EQIP technical service provider requirements. 22
23 Rural Development (RD) Montana (Region 8) is almost entirely a rural state and the mission of RD is to improve the quality of life for rural Montanans. The grants and loan opportunities that RD has available for agricultural producers include: Renewable Energy for America (REAP) program, Value added producer grants, and Loan guarantee programs. Farm Services Agency (FSA) FSA makes guarantee loans to family farmers and ranchers to promote, build, and sustain family farms in support of a thriving agricultural economy. Guaranteed Conservation Loan - provides a maximum loan amount of over a million dollars to implement any conservation practice in an NRCS approved conservation plan. 23

29 Questions for Participants 1. With regard to the base suite of E3 Assessments (Environment, Energy, Economy) what is the appropriate level of overall subsidy? (What percentage should the client pay?) a. Pilot Stage b. Long run 2. What is the most appropriate source of funds or combination of sources to sustain the E3 initiative? 3. Describe the ideal process to secure funds for an E3 client engagement. 29

Calculations assume blended model is scalable and federal funding is used to leverage state funds. Provide federal funds to any state willing to match dollar for dollar. Cap the amount available or let the states determine their investment and match that amount. Will need to monitor (audit) some predetermined frequency. Deployment of $36 M in federal funding will result in projects with 3,000 manufacturers and provide 3 years of state support to build out and develop E3 communities. 41
