MEMORANDUM FOR PRESIDENT CLINTON

FROM: Debbie Shock, Director of Facilities

CC: Bruce Lindsey, Stephanie Streett, Lena Moore
RE: Clinton Presidential Center Energy Efficiency Briefing
Date: December 7, 2012
The purpose of this memo is to provide a summary of the potential options to assess, modify,
expand and/or replace the energy systems in an effort to maximize efficiency at the Clinton
Presidential Center. Please see the following information and proposals for consideration:

The Centers Choctaw Station has been registered with the U.S. Green Building Council
(USGBC) LEED for Existing Buildings (EB) program. In February 2013, we will begin
the application process for a USGBC rating. We anticipate at least a LEED certification
level or possibly a Silver LEED rating. Once awarded, the Choctaw building will be one
of the oldest buildings in the country to achieve this status. Over the past 28 months, we
made several improvements to the Choctaw building which have resulted in substantial
energy savings. We have collected data for the past 12 months to prove our savings; the
data collected thus far reflects a 50% reduction in energy usage.

We have been collaborating with Rick Fedrizzi and his team at the USGBC on
optimizing energy performance at the Center. Rick highly recommended Steve Wiggins
from Newcomb and Boyd as a project manager, as he has extensive experience in
performance contracts. Steve and his team have reviewed the construction drawings of
the Center. As a result, he proposes conducting an investigation of the existing
mechanical, plumbing and electrical systems for opportunities to improve equipment
control and staging, and to optimize efficiency. His proposal consists of a
retrocommissioning of the Center which includes on-site staff and occupant interviews, a
survey of the HVAC, plumbing, electrical and control systems, minor system
adjustments, and a report documenting his teams findings. Newcomb and Boyds
proposed fee for basic services (Planning phase, Site investigation, and Report phase),
including expenses, is $306,672.

We contacted a local company, TME, which retrocommissioned the Center for its
Platinum certification in 2007. Steven Ward with TME has submitted a
retrocommissioning proposal, which will involve the review, identification,
implementation, and verification of energy cost reduction savings at the Center. The
proposed fee is $95,000 plus reimbursable expenses.

Ennead Architects, in coordination with Clark Construction, has submitted a proposed

concept site plan for a solar parking canopy and for the installation of solar panels on the
Clinton Presidential Bridge. The estimated cost for the solar parking canopy is
$12,363,763 and $4,498,598 for the solar panels to be installed on the Bridge; the total
proposed preliminary budget for the concept site plan is $16,862,361. According to
Ennead, the proposed SunPower E20 panels are the highest efficiency panels available
and the potential productivity would be approximately 38%.

Sterling Bowen with PowerSecure Solar has submitted a proposal to engineer, procure
the materials for and construct a solar generation facility on a canopy in the parking lot of
the Center. PowerSecure has also proposed the installation of four Sundial solar
sculptures along the sidewalks at the Center. According to PowerSecure, the potential
productivity of this solar generation system would be approximately 15%. The estimated
cost for the canopy in the parking lot is $2,516,000 and $260,000 for the four Sundial
structures; total estimated cost is $2,776,000. Additionally, PowerSecure would like to
explore the potential to utilize the canopies to collect rainwater for irrigation. Sterling is
in the process of assessing this option and will submit a proposal by year-end.

As you know, William Brady with Progeny Solar, Inc. confirmed the compatibility of the
Sunny Boy Inverters with his new panels. However, William has established that only
204 of his panels can be installed in the current designated PV area (Compared with 240
currently). William is in the process of reviewing construction drawings for the roof on
the NARA building to determine the feasibility of installing an additional 36 panels. We
expect a proposal by year-end. William is currently applying for his UL certification to
install PV panels in the United States; he is still in pursuit of a certified PV panel
installer. Since William is not currently licensed in the U.S., we are also consulting with
Sterling Bowen with PowerSecure, Tony Clifford with Standard Solar, and Rhone Resh
with Solar Energy Industries Association on our efforts to increase the efficiency of our
current panels, as well as additional solar options at the Center. We expect proposals
from all entities by year-end.

Eddie Rood with Rood Inc. Heating and Cooling and his partner, David Dean, with GeoEnergy Solutions (Arkansas Companies) conducted a site visit on November 20, 2012, to
discuss the possibility of geothermal to reduce our energy usage. Their proposal will
include the elimination of the cooling tower, most of the chillers, and boilers, which
could decrease our energy usage in a vast amount; we expect them to submit their
proposal by year-end.
