Energy ServicesNew York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA)
GEOMET has been a Commercial/Industrial Performance Program (CIPP) Contractor for NYSERDA since 1999, assisting in NYSERDA's efforts to promote energy efficiency by providing monetary incentives to energy services companies (ESCOs) statewide to develop and implement energy-efficient projects. GEOMET is responsible for providing technical consulting services in the review of performance-based projects in the State of New York. We examine technical aspects of the energy savings performance projects through four stages of the CIPP project cycle: the Project Application, the Detail Energy Analysis, the Project Installation Report, and the Measurement and Verification (M&V) Reports. We assess the reasonableness of the energy savings, the feasibility of implementation, and the technical merit of the M&V approach. We approve the CIPP projects in terms of conformance to program standards and completeness, utilization of accurate calculation methodologies, and methodologies and procedures to validate the performance of the project. To-date, GEOMET has received over 130 task orders (projects) under this contract. The scope of these projects includes lighting retrofits, high efficiency motor replacements, variable speed drive upgrades, control system retrofits, high efficiency chiller replacements, steam chiller retrofits, improvements in the utilization of compressed air, and natural gas engine replacements of compressor motors.
