TCAAP Energy Integration Resiliency Framework <br />Exhibits <br /> <br /> <br /> 100 <br />than its cost-of-capital, then the company will be better off by liquidating its assets and depositing the proceeds <br />in a bank. <br />Seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) – Ratio of the cooling output divided by the power consumption. It is the <br />Btu of cooling output during its normal annual usage divided by the total electric energy input in watt hours <br />during the same period. This is a measure of the cooling performance for rating central air conditioners and <br />central heat pumps. <br />Service line/service piping/customer connection – The segment of the district heating distribution system that <br />extends from the main lines to the inside of the customer building. The service line is typically sized to meet the <br />peak hot water flow requirements for the individual building served by the piping. <br />Square Foot (SQ FT or ft2) – Unit of measure to quantify the footprint area of a customer building, used to <br />estimate the Load of a building based on the usage of the building. <br />Source Energy - The total amount of raw fuel that is required to operate an energy-using device or facility. <br />Source energy includes all transmission, delivery, and production losses, thereby enabling a complete <br />assessment of energy efficiency in a building. On the other hand, “Site Energy” is the amount of heat and <br />electricity consumed by a building as reflected in utility bills. <br />Solar cooling – The use of solar thermal energy or solar electricity to power a cooling appliance. <br />Solar Photovoltaic Systems (PV) – Systems that directly convert sunlight into electricity either for use locally or <br />for delivery to the electric grid. <br />Solar Thermal – Systems that directly convert sunlight into heat, generally for domestic hot water though they <br />can also be used to produce space heating. <br />Substation – Facility equipment that switches, changes, or regulates electric voltage. <br />Sustainability - Meeting the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future <br />generations to meet their own needs. <br />Therm – One hundred thousand (100,000) Btu <br />Thermal energy – Energy that is generated and measured in the form of heat. <br />Thermal Energy Storage – The storage of heat energy during utility off-peak times at night, for use during the <br />next day without incurring daytime peak electric rates. <br />Thumb – That portion of the Rice Creek Commons development that is at the extreme northwest of the site, and <br />is separated from the remainder of the site by Rice Creek. <br />Transit Oriented Development (TOD) – Land development that takes into account transportation choices as a <br />means of reducing oil and other energy use. Typically it would combine public transit with walkable, mixed-use <br />communities, and approaches to minimize the impact of individual vehicles and commuting.
