Abstract:
This is the April 2008 edition of energy price indices
and discount factors for performing life-cycle cost
analyses of energy and water conservation and renewable
energy projects in federal facilities. It will be
effective from April 1, 2008 to March 31, 2009. This
publication supports the federal life-cycle costing
methodology described in 10 CFR 436A and OMB Circular
A-94 by updating the energy price projections and
discount factors that are described, explained, and
illustrated in NIST Handbook 135 (HB 135, Life-Cycle
Costing Manual for the Federal Energy Management
Program.) It supports private-sector life-cycle cost
analysis by updating the energy price indices that are
described, explained, and illustrated in NBS Special
Publication 709 (SP 709).
