RESIDENTIAL ENERGY CONSUMPTION

Space heating and cooling—which combined account for

54% of site energy consumption

Tankless, hot water heaters are 25-35%

more efficient than conventional

systems.

Solar PV systems can reduce your

electricity bills by up to 80%, saving you

money and enabling you to produce your

own energy from a clean, sustainable

source.

Recent survey from McGraw Hill Construction and the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB)

FORECAST: McGraw Hill Construction anticipates that green single-family

housing alone will account for approximately 26-33 percent of the U.S. market by

2016, equating to an impressive $80-101 billion dollars.

YGRENE PROFILE

WHAT IS PACE PACE stands for “Property Assessed Clean Energy”

PACE (Property Assessed Clean Energy) is a simple and effective way

to finance energy efficiency, renewable energy, and water conservation

upgrades to buildings. PACE can pay for new heating and cooling

systems, lighting improvements, solar panels, water pumps, insulation,

wind mitigation and more for almost any property – homes,

commercial, industrial, non-profit, and agricultural.

The concept was first conceived and proposed in the Monterey Bay

Regional Energy Plan in 2005.

FLORIDA: passed its PACE enabling statute (Section 163.08, F.S.) in

2010, thanks to strong bipartisan legislative support and the efforts of

many to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy measures

for homes and commercial buildings throughout the state.

PACE IN FLORIDA

163.08 Supplemental authority for improvements to

real property.—

(1)(a) In chapter 2008-227, Laws of Florida, the Legislature

amended the energy goal of the state comprehensive plan to

provide, in part, that the state shall reduce its energy requirements

through enhanced conservation and efficiency measures in all end-

use sectors and reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide by promoting

an increased use of renewable energy resources. That act also

declared it the public policy of the state to play a leading role in

developing and instituting energy management programs that

promote energy conservation, energy security, and the reduction of

greenhouse gases.

Broward Rolls Out Innovative PACE

Program “Broward County Commissioners have approved a county-wide

property assessed clean energy (PACE) program that allows

property owners to receive upfront financing for a variety of

energy-related home improvements. Property owners then repay

the debt through voluntary assessments on their property tax

bills. This method of financing allows people to make significant

energy improvements that may otherwise be cost prohibitive, and

without impacting their credit scores”

Ygrene accelerates to statewide PACE Alliance lowers buy-in cost for local governments

“Since launching a few years ago, Ygrene

(ygrene.us) has financed $140 million in

approved projects in six counties with 40 cities,

including Sacramento and Florida”.

PACE NEWS

Improve your home, and take your time paying

"In many cases, the project can be structured so that utility-bill

savings are greater than the annual payment" due through

PACE, Spector said. "So, basically you can replace your air

conditioner for free.“

“So far, the Ygrene Green Corridor district has funded some 50

projects at an average loan amount of $22,250 each, Spector

said”.

PACE Loan program for home energy improvements

stalled January 9, 2015

“More than $7 million in PACE projects for homes and businesses have been

financed in Miami-Dade since mid-2013”.

"We now have more than 1,000 applications received" for PACE projects in Dade

cities, Spector said. "They're coming in at a rate of 20 to 30 per day. When we

started, it was slow. We'd get maybe 10 a month.“

“Ygrene expects to offer up to $25 million in PACE loans in Dade cities this year.

PACE funding for homes and businesses countywide in Broward could top $50

million yearly, Spector estimates”.
