Benefits Analysis Sample Clauses

Benefits Analysis. The goal of this task is to analyze ARFVT Program data to gauge progress toward ARFVT Program goals, relying upon a range of benefits metrics. The Contractor shall: • Develop benefit estimates for both Expected and Market Transformation Benefits, relying upon and expanding the benefits analysis framework established in the Phase I CEC-NREL contract. Expected Benefits are benefits directly associated with vehicles and fuels deployed through projects receiving ARFVTP funds. These include, but are not limited to, reductions in petroleum fuel use, criteria and particulate emissions, and GHG emissions, and public health benefits. Market Transformation Benefits are benefits which accrue due to the influence of ARFVTP projects on future market conditions to accelerate the adoption of new technologies. These include increased availability of public electric vehicle supply equipment and hydrogen refueling stations, consumer incentives for zero‐emission vehicles (ZEVs), investments in zero‐emission vehicle demonstrations and manufacturing facilities, and deployment of next‐generation fuel production facilities and advanced medium- and heavy- duty vehicle demonstrations. • Assess Expected Benefit estimates, by developing a more comprehensive and integrated set of benefit metrics to address program requirements, based on advisory committee members and other expert stakeholder recommendations. This will ensure consistency in how metrics are evaluated across projects and fuel/vehicle categories. For example, the Contractor shall perform time series analysis by drawing from the same electricity grid projections for California and other regions, relying upon the Contractor’s grid modeling capabilities, existing published studies, and baseline suggestions from state agencies. Similarly, the GREET model LCA framework (national, or California GREET) and inputs will be relied upon for fuel carbon intensities. This will involve the following: • Metrics framework will exceed anticipated reporting requirements for AB 8 (e.g., will include a broader range of metrics). • Compilation of existing publicly-available data, not collected by the Contractor from individuals, related to analysis of social equity issues, including income, race, and age. • Publicly-available health impact data from EPA, including criteria emission impacts at the county level and any underlying aggregated data on vehicle operation or usage patterns. • Social cost of carbon estimates and guidance on appropria...

  • Escrow Analysis If applicable, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Seller has within the last twelve months (unless such Mortgage was originated within such twelve month period) analyzed the required Escrow Payments for each Mortgage and adjusted the amount of such payments so that, assuming all required payments are timely made, any deficiency will be eliminated on or before the first anniversary of such analysis, or any overage will be refunded to the Mortgagor, in accordance with RESPA and any other applicable law;

  • Sampling and Analysis The sampling and analysis of the coal shall be performed by Seller upon loading of the coal, and the results thereof shall be accepted and used as defining the quality and characteristics of the coal under this Agreement and as the Payment Analysis. All analyses shall be made in Seller’s laboratory at Seller’s expense in accordance with ASTM standards where applicable, or industry-accepted standards in other cases. Samples for analyses shall be taken in accordance with ASTM standards or other methods mutually acceptable to both parties. Seller shall transmit its quality analysis to Buyer as soon as possible. Each sample taken by Seller shall be divided into four (4) parts and put into airtight containers, properly labeled and sealed. One (1) part shall be used for analysis by Seller. One (1) part shall be used by Seller as a check sample, if Seller in its sole judgment determines it is necessary. One (1) part shall be retained by Seller until thirty (30) days after the sample is taken (“Disposal Date”), and shall be delivered to Buyer for analysis if Buyer so requests before the Disposal Date. One (1) part (the “Referee Sample”) shall be retained by Seller until the Disposal Date. Buyer, on reasonable notice to Seller, shall have the right to have a representative present to observe the sampling and analyses performed by Seller. Unless Buyer requests an analysis of the Referee Sample before the Disposal Date, Seller’s analysis shall be used to determine the quality of the coal under this Agreement and shall be the Payment Analysis. The Monthly Weighted Averages of specifications referenced in §6.1 shall be based on the individual Shipment analyses. If any dispute arises with regard to the analysis of any sample before the Disposal Date for such sample, the Referee Sample retained by Seller shall be submitted for analysis to an independent commercial testing laboratory (“Independent Lab”) mutually chosen by Buyer and Seller. For each coal quality specification in question, if the analysis of the Independent Lab differs by more than the applicable ASTM reproducibility standards, the Independent Lab results will govern, and the prior analysis shall be disregarded. All testing of the Referee Sample by the Independent Lab shall be at requestor’s expense unless the Independent Lab results differ from the original Payment Analysis for any specification by more than the applicable ASTM reproducibility standards as to that specification. In such case, the cost of the analysis made by the Independent Lab shall be borne by the party who provided the original Payment Analysis.
