Technology Deployment List
To help Federal agencies identify emerging and underutilized energy-saving technologies, FEMP developed a list of the most promising technologies available for Federal deployment. Federal agencies should review the technologies available for deployment to identify potential energy savings, resources, and points of contacts for each technology.
Categories
The most promising emerging and underutilized categories for Federal deployment include:
FEMP Federal Financing Specialists and project facilitators typically review these technologies with the participating agency to assist with the selection and procurement. Energy service companies (ESCOs) and utility companies are often invited to speed plan development.
Ranking Criteria
Ranking hinges on three major attributes derived from specific capabilities and qualities of that technology in the Federal marketplace. Each attribute is weighted and scored individually. The ultimate ranking score is a summation of scores and weightings of each attribute, such as:
- Federal Impact (50% weighting): Combination of energy savings potential and applicability in the Federal market.
- Cost Effectiveness (30% weighting): Relative cost of the implementation and average expected return typically reported in case studies as simple payback period.
- Probability of Success (20% weighting): Combination of the qualitative characteristics scored separately and averaged to determine probability of success. Criteria include strength of supply chain, knowledge base, implementation difficulty, and customer acceptance.
