Is EPC a cost effective way to reduce energy use?

EPc is widely considered a cost effective means for reducing the energy and co2 intensity of buildings, considered responsible for 40% of global energy use and co2 emissions.

What are the components of an EPC contract?

There are four influential components of the EPC contract. To understand cost risk, you must first understand how an EPC contract is priced (when done correctly): 1. A Front-End Engineering & Design (FEED) package is completed, often utilizing the Front-End Loading (FEL) process.

How does an EPC work?

EPCs maintain and retain access to a large amount of data. They know exactly how much time it takes a pipefitter to install (run) 2-inch small-bore carbon steel pipe by the linear foot. Thus, the only missing part of the equation is how much footage is there to install. Multiply the two and you get the number of man-hours required to do so.

What is an EPC pricing effort?

When done properly, an EPC pricing effort is an aggregate of producing material takeoffs (MTO’s), completing labor studies, adequately negotiating major equipment packages, and defining the balance of plant cost risk. In other words, data-driven analysis, and assumptions.

What does EPC stand for?

there is no one commonly accepted definition for EPc. annex i provides a non exhaustive list of some of the definitions of “EPc,” “energy service company” (or “Esco”), and related terms, illustrating how definitions can vary considerably from one organization to the next.

Should European EPC be standardized?

creating standard European definitions, processes and contract models for EPc may help to address these issues while catalyzing the European EPc market, which is far from reaching its full potential and which remains underdeveloped in com pari son with the united states and, increasingly, advanced developing countries.
