Energy Benchmarking
Know where your
building stands on Energy Costs. Do you
know how your building stacks up against other buildings in your market? If you own multiple buildings and are
deciding on energy upgrades, where are your best opportunities for
savings? Our Energy Benchmark Service is
a quick and easy way to assess the level of energy consumption and how it
compares to similar buildings. It is the
first step down the path to increased profitability and asset value through
lower operating costs.
Is your commercial building over 5,000 square feet? Contact
us for help with California AB1103 disclosure requirements http://www.energy.ca.gov/ab1103/
Let's Get Started!...
To prepare your report we will need
some information about your property to get started, including:
·
Property Address
·
Weekly Operating Hours
·
Gross floor area that is heated
and/or cooled
·
Indoor garage area (if any)
·
Number of Computers
·
Number of Works on Main Shift
·
Percent that can be Heated
·
Percent that can be Cooled
·
Area of lighted parking lot (if
any).
·
Type(s) of building: Office
Office refers to buildings used for the conduct of commercial or governmental business activities. This includes administrative and professional offices. Gross Floor Area should include all space within the building(s) including offices, conference rooms and auditoriums, kitchens used by staff, lobbies, fitness areas for staff, storage areas, stairways and elevator shafts.
We will also need energy utility billing data for at least 12 consecutive months. (The best way for us to get this is for you to give us access to your online account with your local utility. Next best is for you to provide us with a spreadsheet with the data, including: Month; kWh used; electric dollars; therms used; gas dollars. If more than one electric or gas meter, then include data for each meter. If using propane, oil, or another fuel, include the estimated monthly use.)
We will register you for a login in the Energy Star Portfolio Manager site with your new gmail account user name, set a temporary password that you can change later for your own updates and security. Later, we can help you easily forward emails from this account to your preferred email.
