Navigating your building’s energy consumption: Energy Star Portfolio Manager

More and more, local governments and provincial organizations are looking to require energy consumption tracking and reporting for buildings. This type of energy benchmarking can be a powerful tool to drive energy efficiency and lower GHG emissions. By benchmarking your building, you can compare its performance to historical use and similar buildings to see your conservation savings and catch problems early to avoid high costs. Join us in this rapid 30-minute webinar to learn more about the benefits of benchmarking and how BCNPHA can get you signed up for free, with minimal hassle.
