D10a. Does your project <br />save on electricity (solar <br />projects should say "yes" <br />to this)? <br />Yes <br />Is your project a solar <br />project? <br />No <br />How many kW h are saved per year? (Solar projects should provide the number of kW h produced per year and should enter <br />25 for the number of years that the project will have an impact.) <br />Criterion 2_ kW h CO2e (3).xlsx <br />D10b. Does your project <br />save on gasoline? <br />No <br />D10c. Does your project <br />save on natural gas? <br />No <br />D10d. Does your project <br />save on food waste? <br />No <br />D10e. Is your project <br />nature-based? (For <br />example, community <br />gardens, tree plantings, <br />soil health practices, and <br />prairie restoration <br />projects) <br />No <br />D10f. Does your project <br />reduce emissions in <br />some way other than <br />what was listed above? <br />Yes <br />How does your project <br />reduce greenhouse gas <br />emissions and what <br />metrics can you share to <br />support this number? (An <br />example metric is acres <br />of land) <br />The double-paned W in core 5400 series windows that will be installed are ENERGY STAR <br />complaint and will save more than $325/year in energy costs per household compared to single <br />pane windows, corresponding to 20.1 Million Btu or 5,891 kwh per residence per year (employing <br />August 2004 estimates). Reference: U.S. Department of Energy (2005), <br />https://www.energystar.gov/ia/partners/manuf_res/windows/ES_W indows_Cost_Energy_Savings.pdf <br />. <br />For 7 residential units, this totals at least 41,237 kW h/year. The windows are guaranteed for 20 <br />years, so that the total energy savings for this project is calculated to be at least 41,237 x 20 <br />=824,740 kWh. <br />This calculation does not account for energy usage reduction in our lower level units as a result <br />of improved insulation and ventilation for the building overall. <br />D11. How many TOTAL <br />metric tons of <br />greenhouse gas <br />emissions will your <br />project reduce or avoid <br />OVER THE LIFETIME of <br />the project? [Please use <br />the number(s) calculated <br />above (row 4 of tables), <br />or provide your own <br />estimate if those figures <br />were insufficient or if you <br />have additional <br />measures to include.] <br />172 <br />Docusign Envelope ID: 9BD8B7A7-7606-416D-8B35-9C4C6D7EF1DB
