Generation of Solar Power at Garthe and West Pump Station Facilities Project <br />Bureau f Reclamation Water Energy and Efficiency Grant FY2022 <br />energy use with PV in place. <br />The electric cost was then calculated with consideration of how these kWh fall into the On - <br />Peak, Part -Peak, and other categories. Twelve (12) monthly bills were calculated for the <br />sites with and without solar. A lifecycle cost analysis was performed, then the <br />implementation cost and energy savings at each of the proposed sites were tabulated. The <br />results of this evaluation indicated that the greatest solar benefit was for the Garthe and <br />West sites, as follows: <br />West Site: Year -1 Electricity Savings: 422,617 kWh <br />Year -1 Energy Cost Savings: $39,780 <br />Garthe Site: Year -1 Electricity Savings 894,325 kWh <br />Year -1 Energy Cost Savings: $38,165 <br />Following installation, each site would be interconnected to the local electric utility <br />(Southern California Edison or "SCE"), through their net energy metering (NEM) program. <br />NEM allows systems to export to the grid during times when the site load is less than the <br />solar PV generation, receiving a credit worth nearly the full retail rate of the energy being <br />exported. It is assumed that Project sites would utilize either a ballasted mounting system, <br />or a direct attachment. An example of a solar system installed on top of a municipal water <br />reservoir is shown below. <br />Figure 2, West.Sacramento Water Di:strict.Solar Project Example <br />City Council <br />26 — <br />13 <br />12/7/2021 <br />3 <br />PREVIEW Date: Nov 03, 2021 <br />Workspace ID: <br />WS00800354 <br />Funding Opportunity Number: R22AS00023 <br />
