Arkansas Energy Performance Contracting (AEPC)
Aging equipment and high utility costs?
Is your organization facing outdated equipment, increasing maintenance and energy costs,
and
limited budgets? Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) is a tool for paying for efficiency upgrades
such
as lighting, chillers, boilers, water systems, and renewable generation over time. The Arkansas
Energy
Office offers assistance to state agencies, institutions of higher education, municipalities,
counties,
and
school districts. The program provides an effective and user-friendly process with standardized
documents
and assistance from development to measurement and verification of guaranteed savings. The Arkansas
EPC
Program was directed by law in 2013 and has guaranteed over $400 million in energy savings for the
public
sector to date.
Energy Performance Contracting is a financing mechanism used to pay for energy
efficiency improvements all at once that are then paid back through annual energy savings. The AEO
provides technical assistance to state agencies and public institutions of higher learning, helping
them
navigate the process and ensuring that Pre-Qualified Energy Service Companies (see a list below)
maintain the highest levels of quality. Furthermore, the AEO actively provides education and
outreach on
the components of Energy Performance Contracting, maintains contract documents, and sets industry
standards for Energy Service Companies. For a detailed list of how the AEO-approved process works
along
with a checklist of important milestones and responsibilities, please look at the AEPC Program
Manual
below. Please contact Senior Policy Manager Manuel Wiese or 501-682-0603 with specific questions or concerns.
If you would like to explore the possibilities of performance contracting for your
organization, contact Program Manager Jeremiah Herman and/or any of the pre-qualified
Energy Service Companies (ESCOs) below. The following ESCOs were certified to
operate in Arkansas after a thorough vetting of finances, organizational structure,
past experience, and technical capabilities. All ESCOs have a wide variety of
specialities and expertise, so make sure to contact multiple ESCOs. Also, please
note that all ESCOs in the AEPC program are reevaluated on an annual basis, to
ensure high quality work and commitment to the state.
