			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Municipal Wastewater Retro-commissioning Project (MWRP) is focused on increasing energy efficiency in the rural wastewater sector. The MWRP works closely with local<br />
governments in small communities primarily in California’s Central Valley. While MWRP has been successful in moving the program forward in PG&amp;E’s service territory, we have been<br />
unable to gain funding for complete installations in Southern California Edison’s (Edison) territory. For this reason we seek funding to bring the MWRP to rural communities in Edison’s<br />
territory. Using the CPUC’s program definitions, MWRP can be described as follows. <span id="more-46"></span></p>
<p>Program Type &#8211; Local Energy Efficiency Program<br />
Program Strategy – Incentives<br />
Program Segment &#8211; Nonresidential Process Overhaul<br />
Customer Segment/Type &#8211; Small and Medium Usage, Non-residential Hard to<br />
Reach (Geographic &#8211; rural)<br />
The MWRP has received startup funding from PG&amp;E and the California Energy Commission.</p>
<p>These resources have helped move the MWRP forward by funding marketing databases and materials, outreach through site visits, and eight initial installations of our process control/optimization technology. The Quantum Consulting and BacGen Technologies (QC/BacGen Team) seeks additional resources to fully fund eight (8) installations in Year 1 and to partially fund (60 percent) five (5) installations in Year 2. It is our belief that by Year 3 we should have sufficient proof of concept (case studies) for this conservative and skeptical industry such that future funding will be unnecessary. Our goal is to have a sustainable business by Year 3. Key to achieving this goal is convincing facilities to partially fund installations, which will only happen with a sufficient number of case studies. To assist the QC/BacGen Team in developing a market for process control/optimization technology we seek  $1,605,150 in funding to push the program in Edison’s territory, for which we will deliver more than 6,500 MWh in energy reduction annually and more than 104,000 MWh in net life cycle<br />
savings.1 Candidate facilities have already been identified and the QC/BacGen Team is ready to move forward.</p>
