New BEPA Standard, Case Study Download↓ and Webinars for Measuring Building Energy Efficiency

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Good news! There is now a standardized way for investors and lenders to evaluate and rely upon building energy data in their underwriting.

The new ASTM Standard E 2797-11, Building Energy Performance Assessment (BEPA), prescribes a standardized first step to calculating a building’s baseline and projected energy use.    The data collected via the BEPA methodology includes the impact of independent variables such as historic weather, building occupancy and operating hours. This helps energy auditors and other users to recommend energy conservation measures that meet the owner’s ROI and payback criteria for energy retrofits.

Take a deeper look at how the standard works by downloading the case study slide deck↓, provided courtesy of Pacesetter Brian McCarter, CEO of Sustainable Real Estate Solutions.
