ATTACHMENT #2 Utility Committee Meeting of May 26, 2009 Memorandum Office of the City Manager PO Box 475 Dover, DE 19903 Phone: (302) 736-7005 FAX: (302) 736-7002 E-mail tdeprima@dover.de.us To: Mayor and City Council From: Anthony J. DePrima, AICP, ICMA-CM, City Manager Date: May 26, 2009 Subject: Oral Report on Status of Green Energy Fund The following is a written version of the oral report that I presented during the Utility Committee Meeting on May 26, 2009. I am providing this at the request of Chairman Ruane. The Green Energy Fund is financed by a small Green Energy Rate charged on everyone’s electric bill since June 2006. Dover receives between $10,000 and $14,000 per month depending on the time of year. It is a 50-50 matching program, and the owner must expand the monies before being compensated. To date the following types of projects have been funded: Geothermal–Commercial (1), Geothermal Residential (4); Photovoltaic Solar Commercial (5); Photovoltaic Solar–Residential (4); Solar Hot Water Heating (1). So far, $215,582 has been expended. The following projects have been approved for grants, and funds are being held in reserve until completion: Geothermal–Commercial (1); Geothermal Residential (3); Photovoltaic Solar Commercial (2). Up till now, $134,795 is being held in reserve. In addition, $5,581 was used on our thermal imaging equipment for our Home Energy Audit Program and $5,012 for our CFL Campaign and Education Kit. Also, $1,692 is expended monthly for the Energy Depot Website which is also a part of our Home Energy Audit Program. At the end of March the funds were -$6,174. When running in a negative, it means that the grants are paid out when funds are available. In other words, newer projects may have to wait for their reimbursement.
