All installed equipment must meet or exceed the specifications given in the application and be installed in facilities served by AEP Ohio in the State of Ohio. Customer must have a valid AEP Ohio account number on an eligible AEP Ohio non-residential rate (see terms and conditions for eligibility requirements).

Step 2: Submit Pre-Approval Application to Reserve Funds * Strongly recommend submitting a pre-approval application to determine qualification and reserve program funds
for project. Pre-approval is required for some prescriptive measures and for all custom measures. Check the specifications page for details. For some projects, a pre-installation inspection will be required, and you will be contacted to schedule it. Submit a Pre-approval Application. The Pre-Approval Application is the same form as the Final Application. Complete the left-hand side of the checklist page and attach the documentation listed: completed customer information sheet, a proposed scope of work (type, quantity and wattage of old and new equipment), and specification sheets for all equipment installed showing that it meets the program specifications. You may submit the application via mail, fax, or e-mail.

Step 3: Install Equipment or Perform Project Work


Incentive funds are reserved for 90 days, so you have 90 days to complete your project. Contact the AEP Ohio Business Incentives for Energy Efficiency team for specific questions regarding funding reservations and extensions. Be sure that the equipment installed meets or exceeds the specifications and requirements found on the Specifications pages.

Step 4: Submit Final Application Submit a final application as soon as possible after the project is completed (it must be submitted within 60 days of
project completion). The final application is the same form as the pre-approval application. Complete the right-hand side of the checklist page and attach the documentation listed: a signed Final Payment Agreement, a scope of work (type, quantity and wattage of old and new equipment), dated and itemized invoices for the purchase and installation of all equipment installed and specification sheets for all equipment installed showing that it meets the program specifications.

The program team will review your Final Application. For some projects, a final inspection will be part of the final review, and you will be contacted to schedule it.

Step 5: Receive Incentive Payment The program team will send incentive payment four to six weeks after the final project has been approved, all
measures are verified and the project is approved. Submit your application to: Email: gridsmartohio@kema.com AEP Ohio Business Incentives for Energy Efficiency 2740 Airport Drive Suite 160 Columbus, OH 43219 Call: (877) 607-0739 Fax: (877) 607-0740 Visit our web site at gridsmartohio.com

TERMS AND CONDITIONS


AEP Ohio is offering prescriptive and custom incentives under the AEP Ohio Business Incentives for Energy Efficiency program to facilitate the implementation of cost-effective energy efficiency improvements for nonresidential (commercial and industrial) customers. Please note that funds are limited and subject to availability. Program Effective Dates AEP Ohio Business Incentives for Energy Efficiency program incentives are offered until approved funds are exhausted or November 16th of each program year, whichever comes first. The effective dates of the current AEP Ohio Business Incentives for Energy Efficiency program and application submittal requirements are as follows:

Projects with a final completion date before January 1, 2012 must apply on a Self-Direct Application. All 2012 AEP Ohio Business Incentives for Energy Efficiency program projects must be completed and Final Applications received no later than November 16, 2012 in order to qualify for incentives identified in this application. Subsequent program year budgets and plans will be made available towards the end of the existing program year. AEP Ohio currently has filed with the PUCO to offer this program through the 2014 program year.

Program and Project Eligibility The AEP Ohio Business Incentives for Energy Efficiency program offers both prescriptive incentives for some of the more common energy efficiency measures and custom incentives for those eligible improvements not included on the list of prescriptive measures. Program incentives are available under the AEP Ohio Business Incentives for Energy Efficiency program to include non-residential accounts served on AEP Ohios regulated retail rates. Qualifying projects must be installed in a facility in AEP Ohios electric service territory in Ohio. These incentives are available to all non-residential customers who pay into the Energy Efficiency and Peak Demand Response (EE/PDR) rider and receive their electricity over AEP Ohio wires, regardless from which retail electric supplier the customer has chosen to purchase power. A customer may neither apply for nor receive incentives for the same product, equipment or service from more than one utility. Custom projects must involve measures which result in a reduction in electric energy usage due to an improvement in system efficiency. Projects that result in reduced energy consumption without an improvement in system efficiency are not eligible for a custom incentive. The project simple payback prior to the incentive payment generally should fall between 1 to 7 years, or pass cost effectiveness test(s) determined by AEP Ohio to qualify for an incentive. Incentives are calculated based on first-year energy savings and peak demand reduction. Peak demand reduction is defined as the reduction in average load over the Performance Hours by the replacement of existing electrical equipment with more efficient electrical equipment. Peak Performance Hours is defined as the time between June 1st and August 31st on weekday, non-holidays, between the hours 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM Eastern Time.

Projects involving measures covered by the prescriptive incentive portion of the program are not eligible for a custom incentive. However, the applicant has the option to apply for a custom incentive for whole building integrated projects or systems, even if they include prescriptive measures. The prescriptive elements may be capped at the deemed savings and/or incentive level.

Rev Mar/2012

TERMS AND CONDITIONS


Project requirements under the AEP Ohio Business Incentives for Energy Efficiency program include the following:

Projects must involve a new facility improvement that results in a permanent reduction in electrical energy usage (kWh). Projects that are NOT eligible for an incentive include the following: Fuel switching (e.g. electric to gas or gas to electric) Changes in operational and/or maintenance practices or simple control modifications not involving capital costs On-site electricity generation Projects involving gas-driven equipment in place of or to replace electric equipment (such as a chiller) Projects focused primarily on power factor improvement Projects that involve peak-shifting (and not kWh savings) Renewables (Please visit www.gridsmartohio.com for Renewables Program)

Any measures installed at a facility must be sustainable and provide 100% of the energy benefits as stated in the Application for a period of at least five (5) years or for the life of the product, whichever is less. If the Customer ceases to be a delivery service customer of AEP Ohio or removes the equipment or systems at any time during the 5-year period or the life of the product, the Customer may be required to return a prorated amount of incentive funds to AEP Ohio. Used or rebuilt equipment is generally NOT eligible for an incentive. All installed equipment must meet state, federal, and local codes and requirements. Projects must be installed on the AEP Ohio electric account in Ohio served by an eligible electric rate type listed on the application. Equipment must be purchased, installed, and operating (or capable of operating in the case of seasonal uses) prior to submitting a final application for an incentive. AEP Ohio will issue incentive payments in the form of checks, not utility bill credits. The incentive is paid as a one-time, one-program offer and cannot be combined with incentive payments from other AEP Ohio programs. The customer may be eligible to participate in other programs offered by AEP Ohio, as long as no project receives more than one incentive.

Incentive Payment Limits


The total incentive payment shall be the lesser of: 1) The calculated incentive as approved by AEP Ohio, or 2) 50% of Total Project Cost (not including internal labor).

Rev Mar/2012

TERMS AND CONDITIONS


Incentive Limits and Tiering The cap for each project is $300,000 The limit for each business entity (corporation, LLC, partnership, etc) is based on their tariff, indicated below. TARIFF
General Service Tariffs 1,2, & 3 General Service Tariff 4

LIMIT PER BUSINESS ENTITY


$600,000 per year $600,000 overall for years 2012-2014

The total incentive paid for any retrofit application cannot exceed 50% of the total project cost (not including
internal labor). In addition to the above project cost limit, incentive payment rates vary when a customer's calculated incentive exceeds the tiers listed below:

Tier 1 $0 - $100,000 = 100% of eligible calculated incentive value Tier 2 $100,001 - $300,000 = 50% of eligible calculated incentive value Tier 3 $300,001 - $500,000 = 25% of eligible calculated incentive value Tier 4 $500,001 - Beyond = 10% of eligible calculated incentive value Application Review Process
Applications are not a guarantee of program acceptance and incentive payment. AEP Ohio will review applications for eligibility and completeness. Completed applications will be reviewed in the order received. Funds are reserved for the project when AEP Ohio receives a complete pre-approval application and determines that the project meets the program eligibility requirements. Applicants who submit incomplete applications will be notified of deficiencies upon review of the application, and may lose their place in line in the review process until all requested information is received. Applicants are encouraged to call the program hotline if they have any questions about documentation requirements.

Pre-approval Application Prescriptive projects requiring Pre-approval: NEW T8/T5 fixtures, Delamping, LED, Induction, Lighting Controls,
Guestroom Energy Management System, VSD on HVAC Chiller, EMS, Air-Side Economizers, Toilet Room Exhaust Occupancy Sensor, Window Film, Compressed Air Measures.

ALL Custom projects require Pre-approval Final Application


The Final Application must be submitted within 60 days of project completion. Project documentation, such as (but not limited to) copies of dated invoices for the purchase and installation of the measures, equipment specification sheets, energy savings analysis, complete application, W-9 forms (LLC, Individual, Partnership, Property Management Companies), is required. The location or business name on the invoice must be consistent with the application information. Final Applications and all required supporting documentation must be received by Nov 16, 2012 to be applicable for the 2012 program year. The invoice should provide sufficient detail to separate the project cost from the costs of other services not related to the energy efficiency project and other repairs. AEP Ohio reserves the right to request additional supporting documentation as deemed necessary to ensure measure eligibility and verify that the expected energy savings will occur. Confidential information contained in any documents associated with this application will be protected from public filings. However, this information may be disclosed to the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) and the evaluators. Requested information could include: equipment purchase dates, installation dates, proof that the equipment is operational, manufacturer specifications, savings calculation documentation, monitoring data, warranty information, and proof of customer co-payment.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS


Inspections
AEP Ohio reserves the right to inspect all projects to verify compliance with the program rules and verify the accuracy of project documentation. This may include pre-installation and/or post-installation inspections, detailed lighting layout descriptions, metering, data collection, interviews, and utility bill or monitoring data analyses. The customers are required to allow access to project documents and the facility where the measures were installed for a period of five years after receipt of incentive payment by AEP Ohio.

Tax Liability
Incentives are taxable and, if more than $600, will be reported to the IRS unless the customer is exempt. AEP Ohio is not responsible for any taxes that may be imposed on your business as a result of your receipt of payment. W-9 (for LLC, Individual, Partnership, Property Management Companies) must be provided along with all applications.

Requirements for Custom Project Electricity Savings Calculation


The annual electricity savings must be calculated for custom projects using industry-accepted engineering algorithms or simulation models. The applicant may estimate the annual electricity usage of both the existing and proposed equipment based on the current operation of the facility. Where equipment is replaced prior to the end of its rated service life in order to achieve energy savings, the existing equipment performance may be used as the baseline in the energy savings calculations. Where equipment is replaced due to failure or for other reasons (such as obsolescence or a need for more capacity), the baseline performance used in the savings calculation should be either the minimum performance that would be required by code for that equipment type and application (where a code applies) or the performance of the equipment that would have been selected as the customer's "standard practice" when a code does not apply. The applicant must be able to clearly describe the method used to calculate the savings. The applicant must provide all assumptions used in the calculations and document the sources for these assumptions. If no savings analysis is provided by the customer/contractors, AEP Ohio reserves the right to utilize their approved methodology and analysis to determine energy savings. The method and assumptions used by the applicant to calculate the annual savings will be reviewed by AEP Ohio. AEP Ohio is solely responsible for the final determination of the annual energy savings and peak demand reduction to be used in calculating the incentive amount. AEP Ohio also reserves the right to require specific measurement and verification activities including monitoring both before and after the retrofit to determine the incentive. AEP Ohio may need to conduct inspections both before and after retrofit projects to verify equipment and operating conditions. For custom projects, the applicant is required to submit a Pre-approval Application while the existing equipment is still in operation in order to allow AEP Ohio the opportunity to verify the existing equipment.

Disclaimer
AEP Ohio does not guarantee the energy savings and does not make any warranties associated with the measures eligible for incentives under this program. AEP Ohio has no obligations regarding and does not endorse or guarantee any claims, promises, work, or equipment made, performed, or furnished by any contractors or equipment vendors that sell or install any energy efficiency measures. AEP Ohio is not responsible for the proper disposal/recycling of any waste generated as a result of this project. AEP Ohio is not liable for any damage caused by the operation or malfunction of the installed equipment.

CUSTOM PROJECTS SPECIFICATIONS


All Custom Applications Require a Pre-Approval Application Qualification for Custom Projects Custom project incentives are based on first year energy (kWh) savings and average on-peak demand savings. Eligible projects must result from a permanent facility improvement that results in a permanent reduction in electrical (kWh) energy usage due to an improvement in system efficiency. On-peak demand savings occur during the Peak Hours which are defined as the time between June 1st and August 31st on weekday, non-holidays, between the hours of 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM. Projects involving measures covered by the prescriptive incentive portion of the program are not eligible for a custom incentive.

Equipment Information Submittals A list of the present and proposed equipment and components to be installed, including manufacturers catalog/model number Manufacturers specification sheets showing capacities and performance for all major components All equipment purchased for custom projects must be new. The applicant is required to submit a Pre-approval application for all custom projects while the existing equipment is still in operation in order to allow AEP Ohio the opportunity to verify the existing equipment. Project payback equals the ratio of the project cost divided by the annual energy bill savings. Project payback must be greater than or equal to one year and less than or equal to seven years to be eligible for a custom incentive. Projects that are NOT eligible for a custom incentive include the following: Fuel switching (e.g. electric to gas or gas to electric) Changes in operational and/or maintenance practices or simple control modifications not involving capital costs On-site electricity generation Projects that involve peak-shifting (and not kWh savings) Renewable energy Energy Savings Calculations Custom applications must be accompanied by detailed engineering calculations using industry standard engineering algorithms or simulation models that document the annual total energy savings and on-peak demand savings. The applicant must submit calculations and methods used to derive the savings. The applicant must provide all assumptions used in the calculations and document the source for these assumptions. AEP Ohio will review the submittal. AEP Ohio is solely responsible for the final determination of the annual energy savings to be used in calculating the incentive amount. AEP Ohio may need to conduct inspections both before and after the retrofit projects to verify equipment and operation conditions. AEP Ohio also reserves the right to require specific measurement and verification activities including monitoring both before and after the retrofit and to base the incentive payment on the results of these activities. The following serves as guidelines for the minimum required documentation. The program team may be able to assist in calculating savings. Please contact the team for more details. Calculations may be performed by hand, but spreadsheet analysis or more rigorous modeling is preferred. All analysis should be provided in electronic format. All assumptions such as operating hours, existing and proposed equipment operational details must be presented. Engineering algorithms and procedures from recognized technical organizations such as ASHRAE, SMACNA, ANSI, etc. must be used. Use rated performance factors tested under accepted procedures specified by recognized rating agencies such as AHRI, ANSI, ASTM, etc. Provide an explanation when equipment performance rating conditions vary from standard conditions.

CUSTOM PROJECTS SPECIFICATIONS


In support of the calculations, extensive documentation must be provided that provides the basis for the savings estimates. The documentation must provide information on the equipment operating schedule, daily and seasonal load profile, and baseline AND energy efficient equipment performance at the operating loads. Typical documentation for custom projects often includes: Baseline/existing and proposed equipment make and model number including operating voltage and rated full load amps. Existing equipment condition and age Engineering or architectural drawings and equipment schedule sheets Component specification sheets that include part load efficiency or performance factors Spreadsheet calculations or input/output files and results from system modeling or other engineering analysis using accepted engineering algorithms and practices Log sheets, trend logs from a building management system, or other operating documentation that are often necessary to document operating hours and equipment loading, and used as a basis for the calculations (in some cases, short term monitoring may be required to document the load profile) Control sequence of operations that are necessary where controls play a part in the savings equation Additional documentation, other than that described in the application, may be required for program participation. Larger projects may also require pre and post project sub-metering, or monitoring of loads and/or power input as part of another measurement and verification activity to demonstrate the actual energy savings realized. Baseline for Custom Analysis Where equipment is replaced prior to the end of its rated service life (more than 5 years) in order to achieve energy savings, the existing equipment performance may be used as the baseline in the energy savings calculations. Where equipment is replaced due to failure or for other reasons (such as obsolescence or a need for more capacity), the baseline performance used in the savings calculation should be either the minimum performance that would be required by federal or local energy code for that equipment type and application (where a code applies) or the performance of the equipment that would have been selected as the customer's "standard practice" when a code does not apply.
