11. Complete Lighting Survey (Form EF.L) and attach to end of Form L.1
12. Provide a brief description of the lighting retrofit.
This Lighting M&V Plan covers lighting efficiency and lighting controls measures only. The approach used in the
plan conforms to Option B of the International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP).
Section 2. Assumptions
13. State all substantive assumptions affecting the pre-installation and post-installation lighting usage, energy
consumption and/or energy savings.
Section 3. M&V Activities
This project contains lighting efficiency and/or lighting controls measures only. The following steps will be
completed to measure and verify the energy savings attributable to the lighting retrofit.
a. A pre-installation lighting audit will be completed and submitted on Form EF.L with the Detailed Energy
Analysis. The information on the form will document the existing (or baseline) lighting fixture type,
location, count, usage group, number of non-operating fixtures, existing control type, and hours of
operation. Form EF.L will also contain similar information for the anticipated post-installation condition.
b. The energy savings on Form EF.L will be based on hours of operation estimated from observation and
from discussions with the building owner. Pre- and post-installation fixture wattage will be based on the
NYSERDA Table of Standard Fixture Wattages, unless otherwise approved by NYSERDA (attach a copy
of the written authorization from NYSERDA).
c. A post-installation lighting verification will be completed and a revised Form EF.L will be submitted with
the Project Installation Report.
d. For lighting control measures the pre-installation hours of operation will be determined from metering a
representative sample of fixtures, as indicated using the NYSERDA Sample Size Calculator.
e. For lighting efficiency and lighting control measures post-installation hours of operation will be
determined from metering a representative sample of fixtures, as indicated using the NYSERDA Sample
Size Calculator.

Section 4. Calculations and Adjustments
Form EF.L will be used to calculate the energy savings resulting from the lighting efficiency and/or lighting control
retrofit. When multiple points within a single usage group are monitored; a simple, unweighted average of all the
monitored values will be used to calculate the hours of operation for the entire usage group. When more than one
monitoring period is required for a usage group, the annual hours of operation for each monitoring point will be
determined and then multiple points will be averaged together.
14. State any adjustments to the baseline that was required when completing form EF.L. Note if qualifying fixture
codes were used in place of existing fixture types attach a listing of the adjustments made.
Section 5. Metering Plan
15. Enter relevant information into Table 1 to describe the monitoring approach to be used.
Table 1. Monitoring Approach

Pre-Installation Hours of Operation
(For Lighting Control Measures Only)
Post-Installation Hours of Operation
16. Enter the number of usage groups in Table 2. Refer to the Instructions for the recommended minimum
number of usage groups. Add additional lines if necessary.

17. Use the NYSERDA Sample Size Calculator to determine the minimum number of monitoring sample points
required. Enter the number of monitoring points in each usage group in Table 3. Attach a print out of the
NYSERDA Sample Size Calculator report.
If you would like NYSERDA to perform this step, initial here:

*Use LE for Lighting Efficiency measure and LC for Lighting Control measure.
For Lighting Efficiency measures only post-installation monitoring is required.
For Lighting Control measures pre- and post-installation monitoring must be completed
18. Specify in Table 4 the line items from Form EF.L that were randomly selected to be monitored.

Section 6. Accuracy and Quality Assurance
The NYSERDA Sample Size Calculator seeks to achieve a 90% confidence and 20% precision at the lighting
project level. A calibration report for each of the transducers or meters used in the monitoring must accompany
the M&V plan submittal, if appropriate.
20. Describe any additional steps taken to ensure the accuracy of results and quality assurance.
21. If appropriate, attach calibration reports for any transducers or meters used.
Section 7. Reports to be Prepared
The M&V Report submitted to NYSERDA will contain the following:
a. Form SPC.1 – ESCO and Project Information (updated as necessary)
b. Form SPC.2 – Site Information (updated as necessary)
c. Form EF.L – Lighting Survey. Updated from the version submitted with the Project Installation Report to
reflect actual hours of operation derived from monitored data. The revised savings shown in Form EF.L
will be used in the calculation of financial incentive paid to the ESCO.
d. An overview of the M&V activities completed, including:
- tabular data summary presenting the data for each monitored point,
- tabular data summary presenting the average hours of operation for each usage group, and
- graphical presentation of weekday and weekend usage profiles for each monitored point.
e. A marked-up floor plan (on 8-1/2 x 11 sheets) showing the location of each data logger.
f. M&V activities may continue for two years after project installation. After the first year, an M&V report will
be submitted. For a complete description of duration of M&V period, please refer to Part B, Section 1.2 of
the C/I Performance Program Manual.
Electronic files of raw and compiled monitored data will be maintained by the ESCO, and made available to
NYSERDA upon request, throughout the duration of the SPC agreement.
