How the Energy Performance Rating System Works Normalizes buildings variables affecting energy consumption: • Weather • Hours of operation • Occupancy • Plug load • Creates a whole building “mpg” rating
Building Energy Performance Assessment (BEPA) • ASTM Standard • Recommended part of due diligence process • Consistent, reliable means of collecting data
BEPA Standard Measurable Accurate
Green Globes • Alternative to LEED • No Prerequisite Items • Wide variety of buildings can undergo Green Globes assessment and certification
Green Globes • User-friendly • Cost Effective • Automated Reports
Green Globes Validating building sustainability
Gap Analysis and Cost • Cost per sf • Energy savings potential • Operational improvements
Cost and Benefit of LEED • Registration and Certification Fees • Variable costs • Long term benefits
