| To
bring your property under the ENERGY
STAR label, we gather facility information
such as size, occupancy, and hours of operation,
and review utilities over an extensive period
of operation. The results are compared with the
existing national average in energy efficiency.
The ENERGY
STAR Program is a great way to get started
on reviewing your facility for energy efficiency
or to validate the effectiveness of recent energy
efficiency programs and projects. It is also a
powerful marketing tool for identifying your facility
as a leader in conservation.
The ENERGY STAR benchmarking process
involves several steps – information gathering,
use of the EPA
benchmarking software tool, a site visit by a
licensed professional engineer and then application
for and receipt of the plaque. |
