as part of FPL's Commercial & Industrial Thermal Energy Storage Program.
REGARDING THE FEASIBILITY STUDY:
1. FPL AGREES TO:
Reimburse Customer the reasonable and customary costs of a Thermal
Energy Storage Feasibility Study, up to a maximum of $5,000 per TES
system, subject to the Feasibility Requirements shown in Appendix A.
Payment shall be made pursuant to Section 3 of this agreement.
2. CUSTOMER AGREES TO:
2.1 Commission a Professional Engineer, licensed and insured in the State of
Florida, to perform a Study which will analyze the cost effectiveness of
thermal energy storage cooling located at the site with the following address:

and legal description:
2.2 Assure that the Study shall bear the signature and seal of the Professional
Engineer responsible for the Study and the name, addreas, and telephone
number of the consulting firm producing the FS.
2.3 Assure that the FS follows FPL's Feasibility Study Requirements shown in
Appendix A.
2.4 Deliver to FPL two legible, bound copies of the FS to 7~,~ ?Z'~YE of FPL
within 90 days of execution of this agreement. ~,~/-4,~ y ~,,~.v
2.5 Inform z~,~>, ,d~,..~/of FPL, within 60 days of this agreement whether or not
it is going to commission a Feasibility Study.
3. METHOD FEASIBILITY STUDY FUNDING:
A payment of $2,500 or 1/2 the cost of the FS shown on the Professional
Engineer's invoice, whichever is less, shall be made to the Customer after
two copies of the FS and Professional Engineers invoice are delivered to
the FPL representative narnad in Section 2.4, and the FPL representative
approves this FS as to form and substance. Such approval is not to be
unreasonably withheld. The other 1/2 of the cost of the FS, up to an
additional $2,500, will be awarded to the Customer upon installation and
verification of the TES system located at the address shown in section 2.1
by an FPL representative under FPL's Commercial/Industrial Thermal
Energy Storage Program.
SHOULD CUSTOMER ELECT TO PURSUE THE INSTALLATION OF AN OFF,
PEAK COOLING SYSTEM UNDER FPL'e COMMERCIAL & INDUSTRIAL
THERMAL ENERGY STORAGE PROGRA!VL THEN:
4. FPL AGREES TO:
Provide an incentive to the Customer in the mount of $250/ton removed
from FPL's summer on-peak time period. The tonnage ramovad from FPL's
summer on-peak time period will be determined pursuant to Section 6.1
below. This incentive amount may be adjusted to agree with the actual TES
system installed, Payment will be made pursuant to Section 6.2 below.
5, CUSTOMER AGREES TO:
5.1 Demonstrate to FPL within 180 days of receipt of FPL's first FS funding
payment, if Customer conducted a FS, or within 180 days of execution of
this agreement, ff Customer did not conduct a FS, its commitment to install
an off-peak cooling system by providing FPL with a written commitment to
purchase said system.
5.2 Install an off-peak cooling system at the location given in Section 2.1, which
during FPL's on-peak time period will supply all or a portion of the cooting
needs through a permanent storage system electrically chargad at times
other than FPL's on-peak time period.
2
5.3 Allow FPL to review final TES system design before commissioning of TES
installation.
5.4 Conduct TES system final design subject to the Minimum TES Design
Requirements shown in Appendix B.
5.5 Commence operation of the off-peak cooling system within two years from
the date of execution of this Agreement end continue operation of the off-
peak cooling system for a minimum of five (5) years from the date operation
commences and purchase electddty from FPL to charge the off-peak
cooling system. Failure to purchase electricity from FPL for charging its off-
peak cooling system forthe five (5) year period shall disqualify the Customer
from any incentive payments described in Section 4 and 6.
5.6 Allow FPL personnel access at reasonable times to vedfy and monitor the
off-peak cooling system to ensure it is being charged during non-peak hours.
5.7 Provide an appropriate mete~' enclosure in close proximity to the Customer's
distribution equipment. This enclosure will house metedng equipment used
to determine the cooling system's effidency. Parameters to be monitored
may include, but are not limited to, chiller kW consumption, storage tank
Btu/hr, and chiller Btu/hr. Provide space and access to, and install this
monitoring equipment (exept for FPL's Solid State Data Recorder, SSDR)
subject to FPL guidelines.
5.8 Provide a telephone line by which to transmit the monitored parameters
listed in Section 5.7 above.
5.9 Install an alarm system which notifies customer of any condition in which
subsequent on-peak or non-optimized operation would occur. Parameters
which to be monitored could include: refrigerant pressure, storage
temperature, chilled water temperature(s), or other critical system operating
paramatere,
6, INCs=NTIVE DE"IIRMINATION & PAYMENT:
6,1 The tofal tonnage removed from FPL's summer on-peak period (hereafter
referred to as "tonnage removed*) must be datermined as follows:
i) Datermine the building design day 24 hour cooling load profile using
an industry standard houdy analysis program such as those provided
by Carrier or Trsne.
ii) Apply the appropriate TES chiller system 24 hour load profile
3
necessary to satisfy the cooling load profile above.
iii) Thetonnageremovedisthencalculatedbysubtractingthemaximum
value of the TES chiller load profile (ii) from the maximum value of
the building load profile (i) dudng FPL's on-peak pedod.
If Customer currently uses TES to satisfy the building's cooling
requirements, and is adding more storage and/or chiller capacity, the
tonnage removed will be calculated as follows:
iv) Determine the maximum tonnage supplied by the existing TES
system's chiller dudng FPL's on-peak period. (Note: This is only the
load supplied by the chiller, not the storage, during this peded).
v) Apply the appropdste proposed TES chiller system 24 hour load
profile necessary to satisfy the cooling load profile above.
vi) The tonnage removed is then calculated by subtracting the maximum
value of the proposed TES chiller load profile (v) from the maximum
value of the existing TES chiller load profile (iv) during FPL's on-peak
perled.
6.2 A single incentivepayment will be roads to Customer upon verification of
TES system installation and operation by an FPL representative.
7. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT:
7.1 This Agraeroent is an incentive cemroitment on FPL's part for 9nly the
facility identified in Section 2.2 of this Agreement.
7.2 FPL is not coromitted to future projects or expansion of this project, under
the terms of the Agreeroent. Future coromitments are subject to availability
of funds, program rules and requirements in effect at this time.
7.3 Partidpation in this program does not exclude Customer fro ro participating
in any other of FPL's Malt, eting Programs.
7.4 In the cese of a retrofit, the electrical power to the facility located at the site
described in Se~ion 2.1 must be supplied se~ely by FPL service through a
permanent metering arrangement.
7.5 All manufactures of TES systeros must have a miniroum of 10 TE$ systems
installed which have been operating for st least 3 years, other systems must
be pre-approved by FPL to qualify for FPL's program.
