Energy Star“, often heard in today’s “Green Industrial Boom”, is a tool used in many different areas but has 1 main goal – to help save & reduce energy use.
You can purchase Energy Star rated products, like computers, printers, fridgerators, washing machines, etc. and typically save 30% energy use vs. the standard product.

Energy Star can also be used to track buildings energy performance on an ongoing basis.  Their website can be used to setup a “Portfolio Manager” Tool, giving users the ability to review multiple buildings under one portfolio.

In Energy Star, you can track the following types of buildings:

  • Offices
  • Bank/Financial Institutions
  • Courthouses
  • Data Center
  • K-12 Schools
  • Hospitals (Acute Care and Children’s)
  • Hotels
  • Retail Stores
  • Supermarkets
  • Senior Care Facility
  • Residence Halls/Dormitories
  • Warehouses
