Energy Manager Project Assistant: User Manual

Abstract

Department of Defense "Military Construction Data" form DD1391 includes no template for energy calculations and project narratives. The Energy Manager Project Assistant (PA) software program, an offshoot of the Renewables and Energy Efficiency Program (REEP), was created to fill this gap by providing a standard template for DD1391 energy project calculations and narratives. The energy and water conservation opportunities in REEP that generate the most savings were modified and included in PA. PA calculates resource and cost savings and generates DD1391 forms and supporting LCCA forms. Other benefits to the PA program in addition to quick, accurate, and consistent project preparation include accurate what-if' analyses of individual conservation opportunities within a building or set of buildings, and its capability to evaluate Energy Savings Performance contract (ESPC) proposals for estimated energy/cost savings. This work provides documentation for the Energy Manager Project Assistant, to help energy managers create correct, complete DD1391 energy project calculations and narratives.
