Page 3 of 5 Energy Services Agreement As part of the RFQ award, the City would enter into an Energy Services Agreement (ESA) with Climatec. The ESA establishes program intent and defines a structured step-by-step process for conducting citywide assessments and developing an Energy Infrastructure Modernization Program to meet the City’s objectives. Program development will be conducted in two phases: Preliminary Assessment (PA) and Detailed Assessment (DA), as outlined in the ESA. This ESA authorizes assessment and program development only; implementation would require future City Council action to approve an ESA amendment with a not-to-exceed amount and a savings guarantee. Preliminary Assessment (PA) After approval of the ESA Climatec will complete a baseline analysis of the City’s utility consumption and conduct citywide engineering site assessments of energy, gas, and water infrastructure. The site assessments will support the City’s Asset Management Plan by evaluating asset age, condition, efficiency ratings, and modernization needs. Services include engineering assessments of HVAC systems, LED lighting, building automation systems, building envelope, solar and battery storage, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, irrigation systems, and water/wastewater systems. Climatec will develop inventory databases and needs matrices, prepare aerial layouts for renewable energy installations, and develop funding options and pro formas in collaboration with staff based on the City's needs and preferences. PA findings will be presented to the City Council for direction on desired program scope and funding parameters. Detailed Assessment (DA) After the City Council confirms the desired program scope, Climatec will complete a DA, including in-depth engineering site assessments and due diligence to finalize a not-to-exceed price, savings projections, detailed scope of work, and technical specifications. Following completion of the DA and confirmation of the funding plan, the ESA would be amended to include implementation terms and scope details. A future City Council action item to consider authorizing an ESA amendment for implementation is anticipated to occur by June 30, 2027. Funding A funding plan will be developed for the project. Funding plan objectives are: Lower utility and maintenance costs Reduce General Fund and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget pressure Generate a net positive return for the General Fund The Program will prioritize funding sources outside the General Fund, including but not limited to: Inflation Reduction Act incentives Municipal lease-purchase financing State and federal grants Docusign Envelope ID: 2116ABC8-4A4A-8B43-82A0-6C965050EDC5
