Energy Benchmarking

Benchmarking is a free service that assesses the energy performance of your facilities compared to similar buildings. Our program representatives will track and score your actual energy usage based on your industry type and provide a detailed report along with valuable information on implementing energy-efficient technologies, including available financial incentives to lower project costs.
