Energy Innovations to Transform our Communities Just for fun Because we have to think ahead We need new solutions It’s innovation and economics It can improve our lives Two of my favorites …..

Onyx Solar You used to have to put rooftop solar on either side of skylights Not anymore ….

Now Skylights are Solar Onyx Magazine

HyperSolar If only you could put particles the size of ice cubes into water and produce hydrogen. Hyper solar Video

Presentation Overview 1) California and Israel 2) Emefcy 3) Flowless Leak Memorandum of Decentralized Detection Understanding WWTPs

1. California – Israel Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)

“ “Through this agreement, California and Israel will build on their respective strengths in research and technology to confront critical problems we both face, such as water scarcity, cyber security, and climate change.” - Governor Brown

MOU Overview ▷ Agreement between CA, Israel, and US (signed 3/5/2014). ▷ Formal relationship to foster economic cooperation / development; facilitate joint industrial research / development; and enhance business relationships and educational opportunities to foster job creation and incubate global solutions.

MOU Overview ▷ 1) Convene bilateral, ▷ 2) Facilitate collaborations ▷ 3) Professional interagency, and inter- between Israeli and CA exchanges between Israel ministerial working groups. entrepreneurs and and CA in key sectors researchers. including, but not limited to: water conservation and mgmt., alternative energy, health / biotech, cyber security, arts and culture, education, and ag tech. ▷ 4) Create public – ▷ 5) Support and ▷ 6) Collaboration between private partnerships encourage the CA and Israeli universities. between CA and Israel strengthening of sister entities. programs between Israeli and California cities.

2. Emefcy Decentralized WWTPs

Emefcy Overview ▷ Decentralized, modular WWTPs with highly- treated effluent that can be used for irrigation. ▷ Neighborhood and (larger) building / campus scales. ▷ Quiet, odorless, ability to scale as community / campus grows, energy efficient (90% less electricity) and automated (one person can support many plants).

Emefcy Overview ▷ Membrane Aerated Bioreactor (MABR) technology – oxygen-permeable material allows oxygen in and aerobic bacteria develop to treat wastewater using negligible energy.

Emefcy Overview - Decentralization Decentralized Centralized

3. Flowless Leak Detection

Flowless Overview ▷ Terminal hub on a floor of building that monitors water flow for ~ 30 devices. ▷ Technology understands how each device uses water and monitors for leaks; granular looks at water use. ▷ 2 – 3 year ROI.

SunWork Mission Expand the use of renewable energy by reducing the cost of installing solar electricity systems with the help of trained volunteers

SunWork Nonprofit Model Professionals plus trained volunteers Benefits  Savings – up to 30%  Provides hands on experience for future green collar workers

Markets Served Nonprofit Home Owners Organizations (80%) (20%) • Average electric bill • Examples  Church less than $100 per month  Preschool (excluding EV usage)  Low income housing • All electric home, bill  Social welfare organization averages less than $140/mo • Maximum size - 35 kW (DC) • CARE customers  no use limit

SunWork Volunteer Training for Solar Installation • Electrical theory • Solar power basics • Construction safety and best practices • Next training • Dec. 17 in Berkeley (2 – 5pm) • Jan. 14 in Redwood City (9- noon) • To register for training SunWork.org/volunteertrainings • If OSHA 10 or NABCEP certified – volunteer orientation training not required - email certification to info@SunWork.org

Rebuilding Together Peninsula - 21 kW Solar System Electric Bill reduced 90%

SunWork Solar Installation Example: $90/month electric bill Solar System: • 3.36 kW (DC) system (12 solar panels) • Central inverter with Secure Power feature • Installed Cost: • $6,125 after 30% tax credit ($1.82/W) • $8,750 before tax credit ($2.60/W) Economics: • $942 annual savings • 6.5 year simple payback • 18% IRR over 25 years Assumptions: • South-facing roof (asphalt shingles) • 5% shading • PG&E ETOU-A Rate, X Baseline • $10/mo minimum usage fee included Inverter options: 1) microinverter solution increases cost by $525 after tax credit 2) central inverter without Secure Power feature saves $140 after credit SunWork works with the following types of roofing materials: asphalt shingle (also called composition shingle), modified bitumen membrane, and select metal seam roofs. www.SunWork.org
