This objective primarily aims to increase the funding in Revolving Loan Funds (RLFs). There are currently two RLFs: 1) The campus RLF is managed by Facilities and Services Utilities and Energy Services.  2) The Illini Union Revolving Pool is managed by the Illini Union.  By summing $3.9 million in campus RLF and $1 million in the Union RLF we get a total of $4.9 million, leaving much room for improvement compared to our aspirational peers.    The campus RLF can grow through three ways: 1) a direct allocation, such as from the Chancellor, President, or SSC, 2) grant funding, such as from the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity or Illinois Clean Energy Community Foundation, or 3) 1% interest rate of the payback of conservation projects. For allocating campus RLF, the project proposals are reviewed and picked by the RLF selection committee, and the selection criteria can be found in the Related Files including RLF guidelines on RLF page.   If your office wants to start an RLF, you can consider either of the above systems as a model.     Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) is handled through F&S, and more information can be seen on that project page.  F&S Utilities & Energy Services, in collaboration with the provost office and capital programs, is investigating potential solutions for funding future EPC projects.
