[ jM ALLIATNNCE <br />Evaluation (continued) <br />To work with the data gaps mentioned previously, ABS cross-referenced the data in the Excel files with <br />the Streetlight Purchase Feasibility Study. By doing so, ABS was able to assume whether or not the non- <br />specified LS -1 lights were for Purchase and also assume the unknown lamps and wattages to be the <br />same as the proposed project's average streetlight. This analysis results in the assumption that about <br />9,681 of the 14,946 City's streetlights are available to convert to LED. <br />ABS worked with vendors and contractors to provide an estimated cost to this scope of work assuming <br />that the City would hire a project manager to deal with the subcontractors and vendors directly. These <br />numbers were back -checked with historic industry standards and the Streetlight Purchase Feasibility <br />Study. The estimated savings was also calculated using these assumptions with the results illustrated in <br />the below table: <br />Estimated Current Cost $1,391,660 <br />Estimated Proposed Cost $422,837 <br />Annual Savings $968,822 <br />Savings calculations for streetlights is a straightforward process as described in the Tanko Feasibility <br />Study. When the above value is compared to the Feasibility Study's Annual Energy Cost Savings <br />($1,012,459), there is less than a 5% difference, verifying the assumptions made due to lack of data are <br />reasonably accurate for this report. <br />In addition to project cost and savings, ABS evaluated the scope of work the Tanko Feasibility Study <br />recommended and the resulting City cash-flow and return on investment. The Tanko Feasibility Study's <br />project includes a Remote Monitoring System for all purchasable LS -1 and City owned LS -2 and LS -3 <br />streetlights and an annual maintenance & software fee over the 20 -year life of the project. These scope <br />items will be discussed in further detail in the Conclusions / Recommendations section. The Tanko <br />Feasibility Study's project cash flows are illustrated below: <br />12526 High Bluff Drive Suite 345, San Diego, CA 92130 <br />www.absenergy.com <br />55A-86 <br />(858)333-4775 <br />Contractors License ft 1008135 <br />
