Developing Contract-Driving Steam System ECMs for Performance Contracts This session explores strategies for identifying and evaluating contract-driving steam system energy conservation measures (ECMs) during the early stages of project development. It outlines how to recognize impactful opportunities, collect the right information, and support the development of cost-effective, performance-driven scopes across a range of facility types.

Learning Objectives:

• Recognize key indicators of high-value steam ECMs during preliminary assessments

• Understand what data is most important to gather for savings evaluation

• Apply best practices for qualifying steam opportunities early in the project lifecycle

• Align preliminary findings with the requirements of performance-based energy projects
