HOU - Item 7A - Power Purchase Agreement for a Solar Power System at Angelus and Garvey Senior Housing
ROSEMEAD HOUSING DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION STAFF REPORT TO: THE HONORABLE PRESIDENT AND DIRECTORS FROM: JEFF ALLRED, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR DATE: SEPTEMBER 28, 2010 SUBJECT: POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR A SOLAR POWER SYSTEM AT ANGELUS AND GARVEY SENIOR HOUSING SUMMARY Levine Management Group, the management company of the two senior complexes owned by the Rosemead Housing Development Corporation (RHDC), recently contacted staff inquiring about the possibility of installing solar panels at the Angelus Senior Complex and the Garvey Senior Complex (see Attachment "A"). Their interest in investigating the possibility of installing solar electricity systems at the buildings arose as the result of the availability of significant rebates offered by Southern California Edison (SCE). SCE is a participant in the Multifamily Affordable Solar Housing (MASH) Program that provides up to 60% of the cost of solar systems. The MASH Program has been designed specifically to facilitate the acceleration of solar power in the affordable housing sector in California. The proposed project will produce an alternative source of energy for the Angelus Senior Complex and the Garvey Senior Complex. The goal is to enter into a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for both complexes so the RHDC will have a secure energy source alternative that will be below the cost spent for that same amount of energy purchased from SCE over the life of the PPA's (see Attachment "B" and "C"). Staff Recommendation It is recommended that Rosemead Housing Development Corporation approve a twenty (20) year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with SolarCity Corporation authorizing the installation, maintenance, and operation of solar panels at Angelus Senior Complex and Garvey Senior Complex with an option to renew for two (2) additional terms of five (5) years, and authorize the President to sign all documents. ANALYSIS Over the past year, Levine Management Group has investigated opportunities to implement the use of solar panels to help generate the energy needed to operate the Angelus Senior Complex and the Garvey Senior Complex. Two main implementation ITEM NO. APPROVED FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA: Rosemead Housing Development Corporation Report September 28, 2010 Page 2 of 3 options have been investigated. One is to design, build, and own our own solar panel generation facility. The second option is to negotiate a "Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)" with a qualified company for a pre-determined timeframe. The difference between the two options is the first option requires the RHDC to fund, own, and operate the facility. In the second option, the RHDC negotiates a cost per kilowatt hour (kWh) for energy produced by the facility, which is designed, built, owned, maintained, and operated by the entity the PPA is entered into with. A PPA is becoming the new standard in helping corporations, municipalities, school districts, and government institutions to take advantage of incorporating clean energy through solar power. The PPA is a long-term agreement to buy power from a company that uses its own source of funds to build a solar energy generating system on a customer's site, and maintains and operates the facility for a pre-determined timeframe. Customers run their businesses as usual, withotat any of the headaches of owning a power plant. PPAs remove the pain of paying up-front system costs or worrying about the long-term operation and maintenance. Levine Management Group has recommended SolarCity Corporation as the entity for the RHDC to enter into a PPA with based on their knowledge and experience. The system would be owned and operated by SolarCity Corporation. They have committed to a flat electrical rate of $0.05 per kWh with a 0% annual cost escalation for the solar energy produced at both sites through the use of the solar panels. The remaining energy needed and not covered by the solar panels would be purchased through SCE. At the end of the PPA term, the solar energy equipment (facility) could be purchased at fair market value, or the PPA could be renewed on favorable terms. The PPA enables customers to benefit from the use of green energy, while still receiving some of the benefits of ownership, including lower electricity costs and a positive public image, and allows them to spend their capital budget on their core businesses. Customers typically enter into a fifteen to twenty-four year contract with a PPA provider, paying energy rates that are below existing utility prices. SolarCity Corporation is requesting a twenty (20) year contract with an option to renew for two (2) additional terms of five (5) years. Solar energy is a passive method of generating electricity and is immune from the factors that contribute to rising costs of fuel such as supply shortages, processing requirements, or labor issues. FISCAL ANALYSIS The installation, maintenance, and operation expenses will all be incurred by SolarCity Corporation. While savings could vary either up or down once a system is installed and bought on line, it is estimated that the electrical costs at Angelus Senior Complex could drop by 12% and by 20% for the Garvey Senior Complex in the first year alone.

Ramirez City of Rosemead 8838 E. Vall ey Boulevard Rosemead. California 91770 Dear Michelle, Enclosed please find two loose leaf books that contain significant information pertaining to solar projects at Angeles and Gamey. The books are divided into four sections containing the following information: • Background information for the Multifamily Affordable Solar Housing (MASH) program. • Information relating to the purchase of a solar system. • Information relating to the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) option. • Financial summary data for each option. Please note that the PPA option involves a third party and that no initial cash outlay is required. . For the purchase option, there is a significant cash outlay, but approximately 50% of the cost is offset by the.N ASH rebate. Financial summary spreadsheets are estimates of the savings and returns of each system option. Please note they were derived from information prepared by the vendors and revie`ved by our solar consultant. These savings numbers could vary either up or down once systems are installed and brought on line. Since the City of Rosemead senior buildings are not-for-profit entities, it is my understanding that they cannot take advantage of the federal investment tax credit or the tax benefit from depreciation. As you know. I spoke with Steve Brisco this morning, and he believes this information is correct. However, he is looking into the matter further, and he will inform me if this is not the case. If an update to any of the financial information becomes necessary, it will be emailed to you. Sincerely yours, LENTNE MANAGEMENT GROUP, INC. ;i J 1 Q -ti Allan Kokin Chief Financial Officer Enclosures LEVINE Id ~N~rl a=t T C-POUP, INC. • 622 3!dD.. Sias 200 • Los ANG=_ =s.

SOUR PROJECT Ir~ODUC T i0N Our interest in investigating the possibilit 7 of installing solar electricity systems at buildinas in the Southern California Edison (SCE) sen-ice arose as the result of our becoming aware of the availability of significant rebates. SCE is a participant in the Multifamily Affordable Solar Housing (MASH) Program that provides appro}amately 60% of the cost of solar systems. The federal government provides a 30% Investment Tax Credit (ITC) for solar systems. In addition, solar systems are eligible for accelerated five-year depreciation. Taken together, these programs provide very significant cost reductions for potential solar system installations. LMG manages eight properties in the SCE service area that are candidates for these incentives. Since LMG does not have expertise with respect to solar technology, we sought and hired a consultant to assist us in the evaluation of the system options available to us. Initially, we concentrated on the system purchase option. Three potential vendors were contacted, and our consultant, Greg Reitz; helped us narrow the selection to two. The vendors were assigned four projects each, with Absolutely Solar given the Rosemead projects. This document contains information submitted by this vendor pertaining to these projects. This information went to our consultant who reviewed it and ran it through his model. He discussed it with Absolutely Solar, and he supplied us with his analysis. That is the information that w-e used. We felt this made more sense since it helped guard us against the potential use of overly optimistic projections that could be offered by the vendors. We also investigated an alternative approach know as a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). In this approach, the owners do not buy the solar systems. Rather, the vendor arranges a third party agreement in which a portion of the monthly savings from each building is paid back to the PPA under an eighteen-year agreement. Our understanding is that the level of solar production is guaranteed, and that on an annual basis, the amount paid to the PPA will always be less than the energy savings. At the end of the eighteen-year time frame, the owners have the option to purchase the equipment at its fair market value. However, it is presumed that at that time, the technology would likely be out of date, so that purchase, even at a very low price, would likely not be desirable. Again, the consultant reviewed the PPA vendor information that became the basis of our analysis. The final section of this document contains a financial analysis that compares and contrasts the savings generated under each option. Finally, please note that a Proof of Project Milestone (PPM) document must be submitted to SCE by June 24, 2010. Accordingly, a decision should be made by approximately Jane 21, 2010 in order to execute the necessary documents by this date. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

The California Solar Initiative's Ivlultifamily Affordahl_ Solar Housing (MASH) program offers up-front capacity- based incentives for solar photovoltaic systems that offset common area and tenant loads for qualifying affordable housing properties that have had an occupan_ry permit for at least two years. 7h; a oualifying developments also must b electric customers of Pacific Gas and Electric Co., Southern Califomia Edison, or San Diego Gas & Electric. Applications are available for MASH's Track 1, which provides fixed rebates based on the size of the photovoltaic system installed and its expected performance. For a system that offsets a common area load, owners will receive a rebate of $3.30 per watt, and for a system that offsets a tenant load, owners will receive a $4 per watt rebate. Track 2, which will offer higher Incentives to applicants who provide quantifiable "direct tenant benefits," is still under review and applications have yet to be released. has $10 miliD71 i According to Richard Raeke, dire~or of project finance for 5o 7ego Solar Say 2r-aPInc. , the MASH DrDg ' j~ d or f8 our years nb r funding, which is roughly 3o megawatts of solar power. He says the program that will depend Dn "how quickly develDpers take to this. I have a concern it may go quicker because the rebate is sD lucra lve." Dwner, could be looking at the svs em paying for itself within five to seven years-potentially as little as three years depending on the cyst of the installation, the system production, and the rebate level-and for roughly 45 percent to 65 percent of the cost to be paid for by the state, Raek=_ says. He also adds that the one-time rebate should be paid out to the owner within 3D days of the solar system being turned on. Another benefit for MASH participants is virtual net metering. This allows owners to apply thce credits om a Singl solar and the electric multiple accounts on a site. The solar -system will feed dire =iy back into the grid any e ty . companies will allocate credis as the property owner or manager designates. For owner who are interested in utilizing solar power, Raeke recommends evaluating the potential buildings first. He Says Its important to assess the roof conditions early as well as other structures in the devaiopment. Evaluating current rate schedules and consumption is also key. If an owner is already on a discounted rate schedule or consumption isn't that high, it might not be beneficial for the owner, Raeke adds. With the MASH rebate incentlvn, Raeke also recommends for owners to think about the larger scale and look at several buildings to maximize the economy of it since the rebates will only be around for a few years. Raeke says Sorrego has seen an interast from Owners already. He also adds that he wDuldn't be surprised to see more states creating solar incentives for owner s.

The first MASH semi-annual report, dated January 20, 2010, captures administrative expense and program data from program inception through December 31, 2009, and includes the items appearing in the following outline, requirements identified in Appendix A of D.D8-10-036, and other data that Energy Division has requested. 1. Executive Summary The MASH Program is one of the CSI's two low-income programs and is administered by Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E), Southem California Edison (SCE), and the Califomia Center for Sustainable Energy (CCSE) in San Diego Gas and Electric territory (SDG&E) territory. The MASH Program provides incentives for the installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) generating systems on low-income multifamily housing, as defined in Califomia Public Utilities Code (PUC) Section 2852. The MASH Program has two incentive tracks both of which are paid in the Expected Performance Based Buydown (EPBB) format: Track 1 provides fixed, capacity-based rebates at $3.30 per watt for solar PV generating systems that offset common area electrical load (Track 1A) or at $4.00 per watt for solar PV generating systems that offset tenant common area electrical load (Track 1 B). Track 1 applications are reviewed on a first-come first-served basis. 2. Track 2 is a competitive application process and provides variable rebates up to 100% of system and ongoing maintenance costs. To be awarded Track 2 funds, an applicant must demonstrate direct tenant benefit. Track 2 consists of two application cycles per year- The PAs began accepting applications for Track 1 in February 2009 and conducted the first round of Track 2 application evaluations between July and December 2009. PG&E, SCE, and SDG&E began to offer a Virtual Net Metering (VNM) utility tariff option in June 2009 to simplify the installation of solar PV generating systems in multifamily housing. D.08-10-036, Ordering Paragraph No. 9 and Appendix A. In addition, the PAs will file a more detailed reporting of MASH expenses, including VNM implementation, as part of the CSI semi-annual administrative expense report that is due on January 29, 2010. D.DB-1 D-036, Ordering Paragraph No. 7 and ,Appendix. MASH Semi-Annual Report, January 20, 2090 1~ The PAs received and processed the following numbers of applications in 2009: • 384 MASH applications received 179 Track 1 applications reserved 1 Track 2 application reserved PG&E and CCSE received applications that exceeded funds available in their respective Track 1 budgets for 2009, and both created a wait list. SCE received applications for over 90% of its Track 1 budgef. Currently SCE has 100% of its Track 2 budget available, PG&E has 90% and CCSE has 80%. 2. Background In D.06-01-024, the Commission adopted the Staff proposal to set aside a minimum of 10% of GSI Program funds for projects installed by love-income residential customers and affordable housing projects. In 2006, the California Legislature codified this requirement in Senate Bill (SB) 1" and Assembly Bill (AB) 2723.$ Subsequently, in D.06-12-033, the Commission directed the PAS to conform the CSI Program to SB 1 and AB 2723 requirements and directed that 10% of the total ten-year CSI budget would be reserved for the low-income residential solar incentive programs that are now referred to as MASH and the Single-Family Affordable Solar Homes (SASH) Programs. On October 16, 2008, in D.08-10-036, the CommlSSlon established the $108.34 million MASH Program as a component of the CSI Program. The MASH Program provides incentives "for solar installations on existing multifamily affordable housing that meet[s] the definition of low income residential housing established in Pub. Util. Code § 2852."' The Commission adopted a two-track incentive structure, "with Track 1 providing up front incentives to systems that offset either common area or tenant load, and Track 2 providing an opportunity to compete for higher incentives through a grant program. °7 PG&E, SCE, and CCSE, in SDG&E's service territory, administer incentives under the MASH Program. The Commission selected the general market CSI PAs because the target customers of the MASH Program, which are affordable housing building owners, are similar to the 2 SCE exceeded its Track 1 budget in January 2010 and has started a wattlist 3 D.D6-01-024, mimeo.. pp. 5 and 27, Conclusion of Law 9 at p. 43 (see also Appendix A. pp. 2-3) ` SB 1 (Murray & Levine), Chapter 132, Statutes of 2005, sets forth specific CSI program requirements regarding program budget, conditions for solar incentives, and eligibility criteria.

Statutes 20D6, required the Commission to ensure that not less than 10% of the CSI funds are used for the installation of solar energy systems on low-inCOme residential housing and authorized the Commission to incorporate a revolving loan or loan guarantee program for this purpose. 6 D.08-1 D-035, Appendix A, mimeo., p. 1 D.08-10-035, mimeo., p. 9. MASH Semi-Annual Report, January 20, 2010 16 commercial and non-profit customers of the general market CSI Program. The resulting synergy allowed the PAs to incorporate MASH into their existing CSI administrative structures and to implement MASH in a quick and cost-effective manner." The overall goals for the MASH Program are to: 1. Stimulate adoption of solar power in the affordable housing sector; 2. Improve energy utilization and overall quality of affordable housing through application of solar and energy efficiency technologies; 3. Decrease electricity use and costs without increasing monthly household expenses for affordable housing building occupants; and 4. Increase awareness and appreciation of the benefits of solar among affordable housing occupants and developers. The MASH Program will operate either until January 1, 2016, or when all funds available from the program's incentive budget have been allocated, whichever event occurs first. PLIC Section 2852(c)(3) requires that any program dollars remaining unspent on January 1, 2016, are to be used for Low Income Energy Efficiency programs. 2.1. Incentive Types: Track 1 (A and B) and Track 2 The MASH Program is designed to substantially subsidize solar PV generating systems in multifamily housing. Incentivizing the installation of solar PV generating systems in the MASH Program is not as straightforward as the general market CSI Program. Although affordable housing building owners are the target market, two different categories of customers may receive the benefits from an installed system: the building owners and the tenants. The Commission ensured in the design of the incentive structure and rebate levels in the MASH Program that benefits of the installed systems would accrue to both categories of customers. To accomplish this goal, MASH incentives are divided into two different tracks: Track 1 and Track 2. Track 1 is similar to the general market CSI Program in that the rebate amount is both fixed and capacity-based. As shown in Table 2.1, Track 1 offers different incentives for solar PV generating systems that cover the electric load for common and tenant areas. The rebates are based only on the EPBB method, which is a one-time lump sum payment after verification of system installation. EPBB incentive rates are fixed and do not automatically decline as the MASH Program progresses. The Administrative Law Judge assigned to the CSI proceeding, however, has the authority to reduce MASH Track 1 incentives by up to 10% each year.9 ° D.08-10-036, p. 24-25 ° D.08-10-036, p. 14 MASH Semi-Annual Report, January 20, 2010 17 Table 2.1: MA. S ii Rates Track IA: PV System Offsetting Traci: 1B: PV System Offsetung Common Area Load Tenant Area Load S330NVatt S4.00/1Natt Although different incentive rates exist for systems offsetting common or tenant area electrical load, no requirement mandates that either Track 1 A or Track 1 B solar PV generating systems provide any direct tenant benefit or decrease the monthly expenses or financial burden for the low-income tenants. On the other hand, Track 2 incorporates a direct tenant benefit requirement. Track 2 is a competitive grant-style structure that does not include a fixed rebate amount. Track 2 grants are awarded to applicants who provide quantifiable "direct tenant benefits" (i.e., any operating costs savings from solar that are shared with their tenants). Other categories of benefits that are considered in determining an award include energy efficiency improvements, green job creation or training, outreach and education for tenants on sustainability topics. Two award cycles exist each year, and the PAs can award up to 20% of the total Track 2 budget in any given cycle. Awards are not guaranteed during any cycle however. For each winning application, a PA can award up to 100% of capital costs of the project as well as ongoing operation and maintenance costs. To ensure that the PAS apply consistent criteria in evaluating Track 2 applications, the PAS developed a standardized statewide Track 2 application and review process with consultation from members of the affordable housing community. 2.2. Virtual Net Metering In December 1881, following adoption of D.93586, most utilities closed their Master Meter/Submeter Tariffs to new installations. PUC Section 780.5 required individual utility metering in multi-unit residential buildings that received building permits after July 1, 1982. While this setup encourages tenants to conserve energy, it can make it more challenging for building owners who want to install solar PV generating systems intended to serve tenants. In order to offset energy usage in tenant units, an owner would have to create a separate system with its own inverter for every meter on the property.

The electricity generated by the system is fed back into the grid through a Generator Output Meter, which measures the kWh produced. The participating utility then allocates bill credits resulting from the energy produced by the solar PV generating system to both the building owner's and tenants' individual utility accounts, based on a pre-arranged allocation agreement (see Figure 2.2). The VNM tariff that PG&E, SCE, and SDG&E offers is currently limited to those customers that receive incentives through either the MASH Program or the California Energy Commission's New Solar Homes Partnership Program (affordable housing only).

El11 Eligibility for the MASH Program is based on the characteristics of the affordable housing development rather than on the characteristics of the current individual residents. If a development qualifies, then all of the residents qualify whether or not they are low-income. Individual low-income residents in multifamily housing are not eligible to apply on their own. To qualify, a building must: 1. Meet the definition of "low income residential housing" as provided in PUC Section 2852; 2. Have an occupancy permit for at least two (2) years; and 3. Be within the service territories of SCE, PG&E, or SDG&E. 2.4. Budget In an Assigned Commissioner's Ruling dated February 5, 2007, in R.06-03-004, one-half of the $216 million low income CSI budget adopted by the Commission in D.06-12-033 ($108 million) was reserved for the MASH Program. This budget, shown in Table 2.2, was adopted by the CPUC in D.08-10-036. For information on MASH Program expenditures to date, see Table 4.9. The incentive allocation equates to 889/D of each PA's budget while the remaining 12% is reserved for marketing and outreach, evaluation, and other administrative expenditures. The PAs must spend 2% on evaluation; however, the remaining 10% can be split between general administration and marketing and outreach at the PA's discretion. MASH Semi-Annual Report, January 20, 2010 20 3. Program Progress The MASH PAs have made significant progress since the creation of the program. This section of the report presents program achievements and milestones to December 31, 2009. 3.1. Drogram Implementation to December 31, 2009 The Commission presented an implementation plan for the MASH program in D.08-10-036 and its Appendix A. The requirements of the implementation plan (shown in italics) and the progress to December 31, 2009, are identified below: ■ Within 60 days the Program Administrators shall jointly file an advice letter with proposed amendments to the CSI Handbook to incorporate the MASH program. The handbook should address Track 1 incentives and all elements of the MASH program necessary for implementation of Track 1 c On behalf of the PAs, CCSE filed CCSE Advice 2, SCE Advice 2297-E, and PG&E Advice 3378-E with the Commission on December 15, 2008, which was approved on January 22, 2009 with an effective date of January 14, 2009. This advice filing implemented the MASH section in the CSI Handbook, which describes Track 1 and associated requirements. ■ Within 90 days of this order, the Program Administrators shall jointly file an advice letter with a standardized statevnlide Track 2 application and review process as in/eU as the handbook changes necessary to implement Track 2. c On behalf of the PAs, PG&E filed PG&E Advice 3402-E, SCE Advice 2310, and CCSE Advice 4 with the Commission on January 14, 2009, which proposed modifications to the CSI Handbook to incorporate Track 2 of the MASH Program. The Energy Division issued an Advice Letter Suspension Notice on February 11, 2009, because the filing did not include the Track 2 application and review process. o On behalf of the PAs, PG&E filed PG&E Advice 3402-E-A, SCE Advice 2310-E- A, and CCSE Advice 4-A on March 11, 2009, which included the Track 2 application and review process requested by Energy Division. The Commission approved the advice filing on May 27, 2009, with an effective date of May 22, 2009. PG&E, SCE, and SDG&E shall each file an advice letter, within 120 days of this order, proposing a VNM tariff applicable to individually metered multifamily affordable housing properties that install a solar energy system through the MASH program. MASH Semi-Annual Report, January 20, 2010 21 Each utility's VNI0 tariff must comply with § 2527 and Appendix B of this order. On February 13, 2009, PG&E riled Advice 3422-E, Establishment of Rate Schedule NEMVNM - Virtual Net Energy Metering Tariff in Compliance with Decision 08-10-036. A supplemental filing (Advice 3422-E-A), Establishment of Schedule NEMVNMA - Virtual Net Energy Metering (VNM) Service for Individually Metered Residential Units and Owners with Housing Receiving Incentives from the Multifamily Affordable Solar Housing (MASH) Program or the New Solar Homes Partnership (NSHP) Affordable Housing Program was filed on April 10, 2DD9. Energy Division approved Advice 3422-E-A on June 12, 2009, with an effective date of June 8, 2DD9. a SCE filed Advice 2322-E establishing a MASH Virtual Net Metering schedule (MASH-VNM) with the Energy Division on February 13, 2009, and filed supplemental Advice 2322-E-A on April 14, 20D9, to incorporate revisions to the tariff sheets as advised by the Energy Division. Energy Division approved Advice 2322-E-A on June 12, 2DD9, with an effective date of June 8, 2009. On February 13, 2009, SDG&E filed Advice Letter 2064-E, Establishment of Schedule VNIA-A in compliance with D.08-10-036. Per the request of the Energy Division, a supplemental filing (2064-E-A) was submitted to the Commission on April 17, 2009, to provide additional clarifications to SDG&E's Virtual Net Energy Metering proposal. Advice Letter 2064-E-A was approved by the Energy Division on June 12, 2009 with an effective date of June 8, 2009. Within four months from the Commission order adopting the program, the DASH shall be implemented in the service territories of PG&E, SCE, and SDG&E such that applications are available to the public. On February 17, 2009, the PAs launched MASH Track 1 and made the Track 1 Reservation Request Form, Proof of Project Milestone Form and Incentive Claim Form, along with a list of the necessary supporting documents available on their respective web sites. t By the end of 2010, the Program Administrators shall have made reasonable efforts to identify the eligible population across the state within the PG&E, SCE, and SDG&E service territories, and have attempted to contact them about the MASH program. The PAs immediately reached out to affordable housing community. In the first six months after launch of the MASH Program, the PAs held workshops, served on panels in relevant statewide and local affordable housing conferences, and met with representatives of the affordable housing community to discuss their concerns with the MASH Program as designed. The PAs also reached out to key MASH Semi-Annual Report; January 20, 2010 22 stakeholders, including the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development and non-profit developers, and leveraged upon their respective Lour Income Energy Efficiency departments within each service territory. By the end of 2012, 50 affordable housing buildings should install solar energy systems through the program. While the PAs have not yet reached this milestone, 179 applications have been reserved and, assuming they meet their installation deadline as listed in their respective reservation confirmation letters, approximately 179 projects should be installed by the deadline. Currently, two projects have been successfully interconnected to the electrical grid in SCE's service territory. 3.2. Program "Taidist As of October 26, 2009, PG&E had received more applications than sufficient to exhaust its Track 1 allotted budget of $32.9M in its service territory and created a waitlist for all new applications. Each day that PG&E receives project applications, a lottery is conducted to determine an individual application's position on the waitlist. PG&E funds waitlisted projects as funding becomes available through attrition or system size reduction for reserved projects. As of December 31, 2D09, PG&E has a waitlist of 53 projects totaling $15.2 million. On December 28, 2009 GCSE began a waitlist following the same procedures as PG&E. As of December 31, 2009 CCSE has a waitlist of 1 project totaling $137,050. As of January 1, 201 D, PG&E is not accepting new applications for its MASH Track 1 Waitlist. If sufficient projects drop out or if more funding is added to the PG&E budget, PG&E will again begin to accept new applications for MASH Track 1 incentives. 3.3. How the Data Questions Called for in D.08-10-036 were Addressed Data points noted in D.08-10-036i0 were discussed in detail with the Energy Division to ensure clarity and consistency in reporting for all Program Administrators. New or revised data points are indicated in Section 4.1 and have been added at the discretion of the Energy Division. 10 D-08-10-036, Appendix A, p. 6 MASH Semi-Annual Report, January 20, 2010 10 23 4.

Conclusions and Program Recommendations • The PAs have satisfied all of the program implementation guidelines and milestones set forth in D.08-10-036. • Participation by the affordable housing community was initially slow, but the volume of applications rapidly increased, which resulted in almost complete subscription of Track 1 funds. • As expected, applications were concentrated in larger cities. Nevertheless, the PAs received applications from locations throughout their respective territories. • Track 2 did not satisfy program goals in the first funding cycle because submitted applications generally did not provide the tenant benefits required to receive incentives above the Track 1 level. • Given the speed of MASH Track 1 subscriptions, the PAs would support a review of the Track 1 incentive amount in order to ensure that the optimal number of eligible low-income customers may participate in the MASH program.

Others, frustrated by the prospect of forever being at the mercy of local and state utility providers are anxious to enjoy energy autonomy and are realizing how quickly an investment in a solar system ,will pay off as energy rates rise at a meteoric pace. Of all the energy sources available, solar has perhaps the most promise. Technically, the sun is capable of producing the raw power required to satisfy the energy needs of every human being on earth. Environmentally, it is the least destructive of all possible sources of energy. Practically, it can be adjusted to pourer nearly e1-er)- ing. For these reasons, solar power is clearly the energy resource of the future. 44 5/14/2010 in today's climate of gro«zng energy needs and increasing environmental concerns, millions of homeo-Anvers and businesses are seeking alternatives to the use of non-renewable and polluting fossil fuels.

The sun creates its energti through a thermonuclear process that converts hydrogen to helium. That process creates heat and electromagnetic radiation. The electroma rie-tic radiation (including -visible light, infra-relight and ultra-violet radiation) streams out into space in all directions. A small fraction of that radiation reaches the Earth. ';With the help of solar panels, that radiation can be harnessed and later converted into electricity. Solar Panels Photovoltaic (or PV) systems convert light energy into electricity. The term "photo" is a stem from the Greek "phos", «-hich means light. Volt is named for Alessandro Volta, a scientist who studied electricity in the 18th and 19th centuries. Photovoltaic systems are most commonly known as "solar systems." The primary' component of a solar system is an array of panels that directly converts sunlight into electrical energy. Solar panels contain cn°stal cells made of semiconductor material, usually silicon. These cells transform light from the sun into an electrical current. 46 http : //-.A-«w. abso lutely solar.com/about_photo,%,,oltaic.hunl 5/14!201 C Absolutely Solar Proposals 47 Cost Anol ysis Draft ~,ngelus Senior Housing Size 23.939 CEC-AC (kW) Production 42,111 kWh/year CSI System Size 713 905 Electricity Cost- $0.121 per kWh Electricity Production per year $5,116.35 Installation cost $150,121 MASH Rebate $78,887 System Owner out of pocket expenses _71,23 { Federal Tax grant $21,370 Net Cost $49,864 Depreciation savings** $24,828 Cost after 6 years 525,036 Payback time Total cost (after 6 yrs) $25,036 Electricity Production per year $5,116.35 Payback time: 4.89 years Energy production after 30 yrs*** $243,412.52 * Electricity cost calculation Total monthly bill $1,508.990 Total electricity used 12,420 Electricity cost 50.121 Depreciation calculation Project Cost (after Mash Rebate) $71,235 1/2 of Federal tax grant $10,685.18 Depreciation Basis= Pr Cost-1/2 tax gr. $60,549.33 Depreciation Basis $60,549.3 1st yr 20.OD% $12,109.9 41.00% $4,965.04 2nd yr 32.D0% $19,375.8 41.00% $7,944.07 3rd yr 19.20% $11,625.5 41.OD% $4,766.44 4th yr 11.53% $6,981.3 41.00% $2,862.35 5th r 11.52% $6,975.3 41.00% $2,859.87 y 6th yr 5.76% $3,487.6 41.00% $1,429.93 Total Depreciation after 6 yrs. $24,827.71 48 Angelus Senior Housing CostAna(ysis Draft ***Energy Production after 30 years Energy Price increase 3% p/year Yr 1 $5,116.35 Yr 2 $5,269.84 Yr 3 $5,427.94 Yr 4 S5,590.77 Yr 5 $5,758.50 Yr 6 55,931.25 Yr 7 $6,109.19 Yr 8 $6,292.47 Yr 9 $6,481.24 Yr 10 $6,675.68 Yr 11 $6,875.95 Yr 12 $7,082.23 Yr 13 $7,294.69 Yr 14 $7,513.53 Yr 15 57,738.94 Yr 16 $7,971.11 Yr 17 $8,210.24 Yr 18 $8,456.55 Yr 19 $8,710.24 Yr 20 $8,971.55 Yr 21 $9,240.70 Yr 22 $9,517.92 Yr 23 $9,803.46 Yr 24 $10,097.56 Yr 25 $10,400.49 Yr 26 $10,712.50 Yr 27 S11,033.88 Yr 28 $11,364.89 Yr 29 $11,705.84 Yr 30 $12,057.02 Total Production after 30 yrs. $243,412.52 49 Angelus Senior Housing 0 } m ~ I T i - i } r-4 ~ ~ L p Y N N } N N } M } ry I N } N > N O f6 N } N ` 0 ~ m } N ~p 0 r I 75 ~I c E _ Li u m Q } r" c i } rl ~ 0 m ~ O ~ V } d 1 W ~ ~ } fG I' p O ' u ( r I I } ~ o Y sf1 } c } N r } j e4 r o ° . 0 0 ° ° n C) L ~ arr L tr> ~Q Cost Anofysis Drcrjt Cost/Beneft Analysis Solar System Production Solar Energy Production Accumulated cost amortization Yr 1 $5,116.35 $5,116.35 $44,899.11 Yr 2 $5,269.84 $10,386.19 $37,755.03 Yr 3 $5,427.94 $15,814.13 $33,788.59 Yr 4 $5,590.77 $21,404.90 $31,726.24 Yr 5 $5,758.50 $27,163.40 $29,666.38 Yr 6 $5,931.25 $33,094.65 $29,036.44 Yr 7 $6,109.19 $39,203.85 $800.DD Yr 8 $6,292.47 $45,496.31 $900.0D Yr 9 $6,481.24 $51,977.55 $800.OD Yr 10 $6,675.68 $58,653.23 $800.00 Yr 11 $6,875.95 $65,529.18 $800.00 Yr 12 $7,D82.23 $72,611.40 $800.00 Yr 13 $7,294.69 $79,906.10 $8DO.OD Yr 14 $7,513.53 $87,419.63 $8DO.00 Yr 15 $7,738.94 $95,158.57 $800.OD Yr 16 $7,971.11 $103,129.68 $800.00 Yr 17 $8,210.24 $111,339.92 $800.00 Yr 18 $8,455.55 $119,796.47 $8DO.DD Yr 19 $8,710.24 $128,506.71 $800.00 Yr 20 $8,971.55 $137,478.26 $800.00 Yr 21 $9,240.70 $146,718.96 $800.00 Yr 22 $9,517.92 $156,236.88 $800.00 Yr 23 $9,803.46 $166,040.34 $800.00 Yr 24 $10,097.56 $176,137.90 $800.00 Yr 25 $10,400.49 $186,538.39 $800.00 Yr 26 $10,712.50 $197,250.89 $SDO.00 Yr 27 $11,033.88 $208,284.77 $&00.00 Yr 28 $11,364.89 $219,649.66 $800.00 Yr 29 $11,705.84 $231,355.50 $800.00 Yr 30 $12,057.02 $243,412.52 $800.00 51 Angelus Senior Housing r G a Q ~ i ~ of I ~ I I I Ln L ~ I a ~ t N } q } r ~ N I I h 1 ~ N Ln N L } N Y N L } ~ N N } I v'1 N I I F o } ~ ► I F L ~ } Q~ I r I r` L.
