Why it matters: Beyond market prestige, maintaining a highly verified ENERGY STAR score is often a legal prerequisite for avoiding local regulatory scrutiny and securing state-level green financing.
ENERGY STAR Certification
Achieving ENERGY STAR certification signals to the market and municipal authorities that your building is a top-tier asset, operating more efficiently than 75% of similar properties nationwide. Certified buildings consistently command higher rental rates, experience lower vacancy, and are better positioned to weather incoming energy performance standards. We manage the entire certification lifecycle, from optimizing your score to verifying the data through a licensed Professional Engineer (PE).
Key Deliverables:
- Pre-assessment to determine your current ENERGY STAR score and gap analysis for certification.
- Implementation of targeted operational adjustments to boost your score above the 75- point threshold.
- Professional Engineer (PE) site visits, application verification, and final submission to the EPA.
