Energy Benchmarking
Energy benchmarking compares a building's energy usage to other similar buildings. It enables property owners to assess opportunities for energy efficiency improvements and can be used to demonstrate compliance with applicable local regulations. It is often a requirement for local incentive programs and certain certifications.
Energy Benchmarking Regulations
There are mandatory benchmarking regulations across the United States. ReVireo's benchmarking services can be used to comply with benchmarking regulations, including New Jersey’s Clean Energy Act Energy and Water Benchmarking Program, Philadelphia's Building Energy Performance Program (BEPP), and New York City's Local Laws 84 & 133.
Energy Benchmarking for Incentives and Certifications
Benchmarking is often required as part of local energy efficiency incentive programs, such as the New Jersey Clean Energy Program. It is also required for Enterprise Green Communities and ENERGY STAR certifications for existing buildings. ReVireo's benchmarking services can be used to earn such incentives or certifications.
