CCC IOU Program
California Community College Investor-Owned Utility Partnership Program for Energy Efficiency
Purpose – to help CCC’s identify and install energy-efficiency projects
Provides financial incentives for energy efficiency projects including technology projects
KCCD Green IT initiatives qualify for CCC-IOU rebates
KCCD’s Green IT Initiatives
Identify initiatives that: Have a high Return on Investment Lead to more effective operations Lower Total Cost Ownership Eligible for CCC IOU rebate programs
Server Virtualization
Virtualization is a method of partitioning a server computer into multiple servers such that each has the appearance and capabilities of running as its own dedicated server.
Server virtualization is often used to consolidate multiple smaller (or older) servers onto a single, large server, without changing how the applications perform or are managed.
Server Virtualization
Benefits beyond energy savings Lower management costs Significantly lower replacement costs More flexible and responsive to requests Additional Disaster Recovery Capabilities
College and District IT Operations ALL implementing District-wide training soon DO & CC – Implement by June 2009 BC & PC – Summer/Fall 2009
Desktop PC Consolidation
Desktop PC consolidation places minimal equipment on the desktop connected to high performing systems to provide a virtualized PC for the user.
Benefits Energy efficient Significantly lower replacement cost Lower management costs
Next Green IT initiative College led initiative
PC Power Save Software
Evaluated by Bakersfield College IT Department
Recommendation to not implement Too many technical challenges Too long to implement Evaluating Desktop Consolidation

Sustainability?
What is Sustainability
Preserve resources such that future generations will have same resources we have
The total eco system is improved with a positive impact on tomorrow compared to today
Reduced carbon footprint or at least maintain our current level with no increases
Why consider Sustainability in Facilities?
Worldwide, Buildings account for the following: 36% of total energy use 65% of electricity consumption 30% of greenhouse gas emissions 30% of raw materials use 30% of waste output 12% of potable water consumption
Source: Annually for all US residential and commercial buildings. US DOE Energy Information Administration
Why consider Sustainability in Facilities?
All education sectors represent: 55 million students 5 million faculty 20% of America’s Population
Global CO2 emissions by sector: #1 – Buildings #2 - Transportation #3 – Industry
Benefits of Green Facilities: Reduced environmental impacts Facilities operate at optimal design conditions Improved productivity of occupants Reduced operations cost
Facilities Approach to Sustainability Implementation
Implementing projects and resources to reduce our carbon footprint based upon ROI
Implementing strategies to reduce our dependence on fossils fuels where economically feasible
Migrating our new project processes towards proven LEEDS strategies including district facility standards
Evaluating our existing facility inventory to define phased improvements in sustainability thru recommissioning
Educating staff to understand operation impacts on sustainability and how to increase efficiencies
Facilities Approach to Sustainability Implementation
Planning Team Develop a long term energy plan (Pre-Initial Draft Form) Develop District Facility Standards (On going process) Monitor and evaluate emerging technologies and products Research, evaluate and recommend funding opportunities
Construction Team Implement projects as developed Continue to work with CCIOU Partnerships to take
advantage of funding opportunities Develop and implement a building recommissioning strategy Training District Staff, Architects and users of Sustainability
practices and procedures including LEED strategies.
What is LEED?
Facilitate POSITIVE RESULTS for the environment, occupant health and financial return
Define “GREEN” by providing a standard of measurement
Prevent “GREENWASHING”Promote “WHOLE-BUILDING”, integrated
design process
LEED = Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design
What is LEED?
LEED-New Construction RatingsLEED Certified – 26-32 pointsLEED Silver – 33-38 pointsLEED Gold – 39-51 pointsLEED Platinum – 52-69 pointsModernizations fall under new construction for
LEED. LEED has a new category for existing buildings and has an excellent
recommissioning process that will pay dividends that sh0uld be ROI positive
Sustainability Report Card
Bakersfield College BC Thermal Energy Storage Project (Construction) BC PV, we have secured a reservation thru PGE and currently
evaluating our opportunities and taking proposals to facilitate this opportunity, up to 1 megawatt, (Pre planning only)
BC Chiller Loop Project (Completed) Campus Energy Audit performed and implementing many small
energy projects with less than 2 year return on investment. Commissioned Trane to create a report on other renewable energy
options ie PV, Solar thermal (hot water), fuel cells and others BC SAM Modernization will be first building where goal is LEED
certification if ROI does conflict with implementation costs Cool roofs, occupancy sensors, smart vending machines and others
Sustainability Report Card
Cerro Coso College Combined all meters into one to allow additional savings and
generation energy opportunities Evaluating the existing PV field to determine opportunities to
increase generation. This will be driven by ROI. Upgrading facility standards i.e. light fixtures, HVAC equipment
and related items to current technologies where ROI is the driver.
Cool roofs, occupancy sensors, smart vending machines and others
Evaluating main plant expansion in upcoming capital projects to reduce utility impacts
Upgrading envelope, glass and etc where ROI fits into current projects.
Main Building Modernization will be first building where goal is LEED certification if ROI does conflict with implementation costs
Sustainability Report Card
Porterville College Evaluating looping chillers and cost effectiveness of a Thermal
Energy Storage projects Evaluating PV opportunities with tracker systems and thin film.
This will be driven by ROI. Upgrading facility standards i.e. light fixtures, HVAC equipment
and related items to current technologies where ROI is the driver. Cool roofs, occupancy sensors, smart vending machines and
others Evaluating fuel cell opportunities using bio waste. Upgrading envelope, glass and etc where ROI fits into current
projects. Applied Technologies Building will be first building where goal is
LEED certification if ROI does conflict with implementation costs
Sustainability Report Card
College Centers Land set aside for PV fields in Master Plans all new sites. Proposed new Eastern College Center will be a focused
development on renewal energy and our goal is make this our showcase for LEED certification based on ROI.
Site planning for new facilities has been done with LEED strategies to gain additional points to help facilitate certification endeavor.
Upgrading facility standards i.e. light fixtures, HVAC equipment and related items to current technologies where ROI is the driver.
District standards will drive reduction in utility costs LRC Delano Center Building will be our first college center
building where goal is LEED certification if ROI does conflict with implementation costs
Sustainability Report Card
LEED is being phased in by non certified compliance. Projects take many years to develop and phasing in LEED strategies has to be done incrementally due to funding limitations and available resources to change directions.District staff and architectural consultants have embarked on a LEED awareness and education over the last 12 months, attending conferences, becoming LEED accredited and understanding sustainability opportunities in this endeavorMany current projects have been evaluated as LEED approvable but have not gone thru the process due to resources, timing, additional cost for certification, retooling of construction documents for the architects and contractors. This retooling is in process such that many future projects may be candidates for LEED certification. Regardless of certification, many LEED strategies are being implemented.
What’s can be in our Future for Sustainability?
Reduced energy usage at each delivery sitePV or equal at each major delivery siteOver generation used to off set consumptionEnergy management systems each site
allowing measurement, savings verification and utility usuage micro management.
Continued reduction of our Carbon FootprintReduction of operations cost, such that
savings can be used for educational purposes
