Published

Author(s)

Amy S. Rushing, S Fuller

Abstract

This is the April 2003 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, 2003, to March 31, 2004. This publication supports the Federal life-cycle costing methodology 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 also 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). This edition includes changes in the discount factor tables based on updated energy price projections and discount rates.
