2 What is Airside Efficiency? Aircuity s solution can be easily replicated in a variety of buildings providing low risk and a high return through deep energy savings, plus a reduction in O&M, enhanced IEQ and deferred maintenance costs. Aircuity is typically one of the most impactful energy conservation measures available. Critical Spaces: 50% HVAC energy costs Variable Occupancy Spaces: 15-30% HVAC energy costs A choice of airside efficiency solutions is available, making it easy to get started regardless of budget and resources. World-class facilities help to attract world-class students and/or employees. An airside program touches many areas of an organization and helps drive toward core business goals.

3 The Benefits Part of what makes an airside efficiency program unique is the value it delivers across the business and over the life of your portfolio Energy Savings Reduced Deferred Maintenance Validated M&V of Energy Savings Reduced O&M Information Layer for Continuous Commissioning % Savings of Total Energy Spend, O&M and a Reduced Deferred Maintenance Backlog Validate M&V Energy Savings Continuous Commissioning Reduced O&M 3 4

4 Solution Offerings Aircuity makes it simple for institutions to develop and deploy their airside efficiency program with two product offerings, depending on the capital and resources available. Capital Project Budget Best for: Institutions that will fund their projects out of a capital budget and have the proper internal resources. Aircuity s solution can provide benefits for any project type: New Construction Project Lower energy costs and contributes valuable LEED points First cost savings by right sizing HVAC and mechanical systems Energy Renovation Project Energy savings and improved IEQ regardless of building age Easy to install ESCO Program Great foundation to an ESCO program Aircuity s short ROI complements other energy conservation measures Energy Services Agreement (ESA) Best for: Institutions that want to start making an immediate and large impact on their HVAC energy costs, but don t necessarily want to fund the program out of their capital project budget and instead prefer to use their utility/operating expenses budget to fund the program. An ESA Allows for: No capital outlay A portfolio approach Easy implementation process Low risk Faster deployment of energy projects across a portfolio Under an ESA: All design and construction costs are covered Positive net cash flow from day 1 Payments are made for measured quantities of energy saved Payments are likely to be treated as an operating expense under the utility budget

6 Proven Savings Smart Lab Initiative kicked off resulting in a 61% energy efficiency improvement, driven by airside efficiency Before: 2/3 of all energy on campus was from lab buildings After: Aircuity reduced that by 1/2, netting a 1/3 campus energy reduction University Case Study As is: No Airside Efficiency Improvements Implemented Current Status of Energy Levels

7 The Process Proven Minimizes Risk Maximizes Benefits Program Viability Funding Options: Capital or ESA Department Collaboration Portfolio Assessment: Building prioritization, including total cost and savings analysis Space Assessment: EH&S and head vet Phase I Development: Site surveys of desired project Phase I Implementation Measurement &Verification: Savings and safety Phase II Development: Typically whole and/or multiple buildings Continuous Commissioning: Ongoing O&M support

8 Getting Started 1. Evaluate program viability, conduct discussion about feasibility & ROI requirements. 2. Confirm funding sources. 3. Create timeline to bring department heads together to drive understanding & alignment on the program. Aircuity creates measurably better environments while taking a bite out of energy goals. The company s smart automated airside solutions optimize air change rates based on comprehensive indoor environmental data. As a result, commercial, institutional and lab building owners can lower operating costs, improve safety and cut energy use by up to 60%.
