This is for approval for allocation of Commercial Paper for a previously approved project within the previously authorized amount.

Expected Impact:
This is a project to pilot on-site energy solutions by installing solar panels and battery storage in County facilities. The main project goal is to allow the facilities to be less reliant on the electricity grid, reduce energy usage, and increase energy resilience and load flexibility. The pilot will be performed at 12 County buildings (to be identified later), with the potential of expansion if the pilot project is proven successful. The current PIM is asking for funding for the analysis and design of the project.
Alternative Options:
The County could choose not to go forward with this pilot and not improve the energy resilience or decrease operation cost of its facilities.
