DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
 

Kansas City Support Office, Buildings Energy Analysis Service; 
Notice of Solicitation of Grant Proposal.

AGENCY: U.S. Department of Energy.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Kansas City Support 
Office (KCSO) is soliciting grant proposals to pursue innovative 
concepts to develop a viable process for utilizing engineering students 
in a buildings analysis program. The program will focus on a integrated 
(holistic) systems analysis and development of a management/
recommissioning plan to facilitate the implementation of 
recommendations. The analysis will include the operations, maintenance, 
and restoration needs of heating, ventilating, air-conditioning, 
lighting, domestic water systems, and the energy accounting procedures 
currently being used. The project team will also implement a utility 
accounting system in cooperation with the participating building owner/
operators to analyze historic and future utility usage. The target 
facilities will be schools and other public institutional buildings in 
the four state KCSO region. The program will pattern certain aspects 
after the DOE's Energy Analysis and Diagnostic Center (EADC) program 
but will emphasize measurement of results, institutional partnerships, 
funding mechanisms to perpetuate the process, training requirements and 
identification of public and private resources to assist clients in 
implementing the recommendations. The development of means to sustain 
the process, assurance of implementation of recommendations, and 
measurable results are key goals of the program. Projects shall be 
located in Federal Region VII consisting of the following states: Iowa, 
Kansas, Missouri, and Nebraska. The successful grantee will be expected 
to present the pilot program results in a round-table evaluation forum 
of appropriate stakeholders and governmental officials. Each proposal 
submitted will be reviewed and evaluated against established 
qualification and evaluation criteria. The DOE grant will not exceed 
$65,000. Cost sharing is not mandatory, but will be included in the 
evaluation criteria. Grant award is expected to be made by September 
30, 1994.
