MACDILL AFB METERING
• DOD Implementation Guidance
– MAJCOM Energy Mangers shall plan for meters
within the “fence line”
– Generally assumes sub-meters in buildings is not
cost effective
94% of fence line energy now metered at building
level and documented by support group
Proprietary Information Of Energy 2013
MACDILL AFB METERING
• 3 Categories
– Required by Congressional Mandates
• EPAct2005, EIASA07
– Required to meet Reqs of DoDs Utilities Meter Policy.
– Other meters not required by mandate/policy, but deemed
appropriate by Base MAJCOM for reimbursements
(dictated by Civil Engineering Resources at MacDill)

• DOD Policy to install advanced meters
• Electricity:
– Capture a minimum of 60% of electricity use
– Goal of 85% electricity use by end FY20
– Energy intensive bldgs. should be sub-metered to identify
use by major systems
94% of electricity usage captured at usage level at this time

• Natural Gas
– Capture a minimum of 60% of natural gas use
– Goal of 85% natural gas use by end FY20

• Privatized Utilities
– Partner with system owners to share existing meter data or
negotiate acceptable terms of cost sharing
– Each Installation shall have the capability to monitor
energy and water use through:
• Shadow Advanced Meter
• Data sharing agreement.
Data sharing agreements in place with all partners

• Meter Data Management
– Advanced meters at minimum measure and record regular interval use
and communicate data with automatic metering system (AMS).
– AMS must automatically and reliably collect and analyze regular
interval data from meters.
– Meters that can’t connect should store data internally for manual
incorporation into an AMS
– ION 8600 meters meet or exceed all the above
requirements

• Meter Data Management @ MacDill
– All data logged within Automated Metering servers
– Alarms set on key parameters (peak demand, over amperage,
harmonics and over/under voltage)
– Graphical and tabular interval data reports made available to
concerned parties in the event of anomalies
– Cost reporting available on each advanced metered facility down to
15-minute interval detail
– All consumption, costs and billing maintained in master Excel
workbook to provide direct audit trail from metered data to bill
generation in CE Resources
Proprietary Information Of Energy 2013
MACDILL AFB METERING
• Maximization of impact of meter investments
– Ensure meters provide only necessary capability for targeted facility
– Meter should measure harmonics, power factors, reactive power only
when necessary
– Contract for meter installation
Currently over 150 advanced meters installed and reporting to automated
servers
~150 advanced meters, or meter communications remain to be installed

• Installation Cost reduction
– Major cost attributed to wired network infrastructure.
– Costs can be reduced if components certify and accredit
wireless configurations in accordance with guidelines.
– MacDill system is 100% wireless communication
– Many meters installed within large infrastructure projects

• Wireless Guidelines
– Information Assurance
• Advanced Meters and AMS must maintain compliance with DODs Information Assurance/Cyber
Security 8500 series of directives
• Must comply with Committee for National Security Systems Instruction 1253 standard overlay,
Appendix K
• Components can leverage the certification and accreditation work performed by others
through Reciprocity as outlined in memorandum dated July 23, 2009, thereby reducing the
time and cost of certification.
• Comply with ETL 11-1, Civil Engineering Industrial Control System (ICS) information assurance
compliance.
– 3eti radio equipment in place has 128-bit encryption and maintains compliance with
DoD Information Assurance/Cyber Security 8500 directives and instructions
– Equipment reviewed by SATCOM, USSOCOM and DISA locally on base
