Medford Aquatic Center
Energy Efficiency and Solar incentives-and Pass-through tax credits
Water Heating – Natural Gas – Avista and BETC PT
Recommendation: Apply for incentives & BETC PT Tax Credits available for high efficiency.
Energy Efficiency Incentives-Energy Trust
Recommendation: Apply for Energy Trust of Oregon-Electric Conservation incentives.
Electric Motors: $10/hp for Premium EfficiencyBased upon 200 hp = $2,000
Incentive
Two Solar Technologies
Photovoltaic (PV) Panels – Generate Electricity
Thermal Panels –
Heat Water
Renewable Incentives-Energy Trust-Net metering
79 kW system based upon 9,600 s.f. of shade/roof
Cost: ~ $434,500 ETO inc. – 87,400 BETC PT~159,896 Net: $187,204 Energy
Savings=$7,200/yr Simple Payback = 26
years
Solar Ready-Electric
Recommendation: Make facility ready for solar PV installation.
South facing roof or solar shade ~27º pitch
Architectural standing seam roofConduits and space for inverterApply for SEP Grants
Water Heating - Solar
Recommendation: Consider solar thermal on outdoor facility only if natural gas incentives and BETC PT tax credits are available. Up to 140,000 BTUs of thermal power per square foot. Can be very cost effective. Only 36.8% BETC PT available now.
Water Heating - Solar
Recommendation: Consider thermal solar if BETC PT and natural gas incentives are available. A year-around-facility requires thermal panels that can withstand cold and are 4 X the cost.
