The solar installations and incentives will serve 156 units all with 60% MFI or below.
..De Posting Language ..Title Approve issuance of capacity-based incentives to the Housing Authority of the City of Austin for the installation of solar electric systems on the new multifamily affordable housing community Pathways at Chalmers Courts East, located at 300 Chicon St., for an amount not to exceed $323,360. (District 3) Lead Department Austin Energy Fiscal Note Funding is available in the Fiscal Year 2020-2021 Operating Budget of Austin Energy. Prior Council Action: For More Information: Jeff Vice, Director, Local Government Issues (512) 322-6087; Tim Harvey, Customer Renewable Solutions Manager (512) 482-5386 Council Committee, Boards and Commission Action: May 13, 2021- To be reviewed by the Electric Utility Commission. May 18, 2021- To be reviewed by the Resource Management Commission. Additional Backup Information: Austin Energy requests approval to issue a total of $323,360 in capacity-based incentives to the Housing Authority of the City of Austin (HACA) for the installation of solar electric systems at its multifamily affordable housing community Pathways at Chalmers Courts East, located at 300 Chicon St., 78702. The proposed 323.36 kW-DC solar installation includes 752 solar modules, each with a rating of 430 watts, and is expected to produce approximately 202,568 kilowatt hours (kWh) per year. This installation will serve all 156 units at the property which is designated for tenants with a median family income (MFI) of 60% or lower. The total estimated installation cost is $572,922.11 and the incentive will cover approximately 56% of the cost. The purpose of the installation is to provide affordable, renewable energy to underserved populations and leverage the Value-of-Solar benefit to reduce electric bills for the occupants of the multifamily affordable housing properties. In order to provide these benefits to tenants of the property, this project will be included in Austin Energy’s Shared Solar Program, the purpose of which is to enable more cost-effective solar installations on individually-metered, multi-tenant properties for low-to-moderate-income customers. This additional functionality will allow Austin Energy and HACA to distribute the benefit of the solar installation across all tenants on each property, effectively reducing their energy bills. According to the Austin Energy Resource, Generation and Climate Protection Plan, “Austin Energy must be financially sound, the cost of electric service must be affordable for all classes of customers (with particular attention to the low income and underserved customers), and rates must be competitive to ensure the retention and attraction of businesses for a strong local economy.” In …

There were no carryover funds in the Fiscal Year 2018-2019. The total unspent amount in Fiscal Year 2019-2020 for the Weatherization Assistance Program is $1,165,887.
