9th Annual Municipal Green Building Conference & ExpoHot Topics: Retrofits ROI - What's driving the Numbers Presented by USGBC Los Angeles Commercial Real Estate & Finance subcommittee Presenters: Partner Energy Ryan McEvoy, GAIA Development James Finlay, Wells Fargo Bank Successful energy efficiency building upgrades and distributed power, always involve the same four key steps: analysis and financial projections, finding the money, monitoring/optimizing and finally gaining recognized value. This panel will examine the initial energy/resource auditing process with an eye on the best risk adjusted return, where those first dollars should be spent. Actual construction brings its own unique issues and the key lessons learned from past projects will be discussed. After the energy efficiency and/or on-site power systems are completed, is the benefit going to be recognized by an appraiser or bank underwriter? Retrofits are always unique but the experienced panel will focus on the highest value tools and knowledge needed to make the best financial decisions. Emphasis will be on the bottom line, applied to real world circumstances, what worked, what didn’t and what to do next time. Applications for both owner-occupants, tenants and building owners.
