(3) The cost of implementing appropriate industrial
energy conservation projects or industrial solar energy projects
and the savings in energy costs that are likely to result from
the implementation of such projects.
(j) "Industrial energy conservation project" means:
(1) With respect to an industrial building or an
industrial process for the production or manufacture of raw
materials or products, the purchase or installation or the

plant and distribution system, including:
1. A replacement burner, furnace boiler,
or any combination of these items, which increases the energy
efficiency of the heating system;
2. Any devices for modifying a flue
opening that will increase the energy efficiency of the heating
system; and
3. An electrical or mechanical furnace
ignition system which replaces a standing gas pilot light;
(vii) The replacement or modification of a
