As an Energy Star® Partner, Beacon uses the Energy Star® Portfolio Manager® to benchmark and track energy usage, including all fuel sources used for energy consumption.
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, forty percent of commercial building space in the U.S., are already benchmarking in Energy Star® Portfolio Manager®, and Beacon Energy Solutions can use it to benchmark the performance of your property – be it just one building or even a whole portfolio of buildings – all in a secure online environment.
Energy benchmarking can help you reduce costs and save money, because the benchmarking analysis gives detailed data about how much energy is being actually being consumed by your property. The better you understand that data, the faster you can tackle those critical areas that are ripe for efficiency changes.
A building using less energy is a building that is a smart investment. Energy efficiency also translates into better comfort for workers and tenants, with help with performance and occupancy levels – both of which add significant value to the property as a whole (and your bottom line).
The more data you have about how your building consumes and manages energy, the faster (and better) you can effectively identify and resolve any issues which may not be positively contributing to the bottom line. Energy data gathered from a benchmarking analysis from Alternative Utility Services actually helps your business grow in ways you may not have considered before now.
Sometimes it’s a challenge to look internally at how your operation handles energy, because it can lead to both behavioral and operational changes in order to achieve reductions in energy consumption. But this window given to you by a good benchmarking analysis helps you make significantly better decisions about how you and your staff approach energy as a whole, improving performance across the board.
