ENERGY BENCHMARKING + BUILDING PERFORMANCE STANDARDS COMPLIANCE
Expert Compliance Strategies for Benchmarking and BPS Programs
There are more than 50 municipalities, counties, and states across the country who have enacted some variation of an energy benchmarking ordinance. The goal is typically simple: to track energy consumption of the locale’s building stock and benchmark their performance against their peers to drive a market-based desire to improve energy efficiency and lower utility costs.
There are three general variations of these regulations:
Gather and report data
Gather and report data, and periodically verify the data
Gather and report data, periodically verify the data, and enact energy conservation efforts
