SCS/HB 2087 - This act allows the Division of Design and Construction to contract for guaranteed energy cost savings. Contractors must be selected based on experience, capability, past performance and proximity of the firm. The contract must reduce the estimated energy consumption or reduce the cost of energy and related savings by a minimum of 12%. The contract must otherwise be in accordance with Section 8.231, RSMo.

This act also limits the projects to which energy conservation assistance can be made. The payback period is also changed to 10 years or eighty percent of the expected useful life of the energy conservation measures when the expected useful life exceeds 10 years.

This act is similar to SB 821 (2002).
