Session Synopsis - "Tools for Rating Commercial Building Energy Performance"

Adam W. Hinge, Sustainable Energy Partnerships
Doug Gatlin, EPA
Mary Ann Piette, LBNL

Tuesday, August 20
2:00 PM - 4:00 PM

There is a great deal of research and activity underway to deliver energy efficiency through whole-building performance based approaches in existing commercial buildings. The EPA Energy Star Buildings Program and new state initiatives provide valuable tools to measure and benchmark energy consumption while marketing the financial benefits to practitioners and decision makers. This session will offer an opportunity to share experiences on the ways tools are being used in schools, offices and other commercial buildings, and efforts to refine them to increase their applicability and usefulness to motivate action.
